Error after adding beans - spring

Question

I added 3 beans to my applications' XML file
<bean id="rememberMeServices"
class="org.springframework.security.web.authentication.rememberme.TokenBasedRememberMeServices">
<property name="userDetailsService" ref="myUserDetailsService" />
<property name="key" value="springRocks" />
</bean>
<bean id="rememberMeAuthenticationProvider"
class="org.springframework.security.authentication.rememberme.RememberMeAuthenticationProvider">
<property name="key" value="springRocks" />
</bean>
Also, I added the spring-security-web, spring-security-core, spring-security-config, spring-context dependencies to POM file as well.
However, I am still getting the following error message:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'rememberMeFilter' defined in class path resource [META-INF/App-setup/applicationcontext-security.xml]: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.springframework.security.web.authentication.rememberme.RememberMeAuthenticationFilter]: No default constructor found; nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: org.springframework.security.web.authentication.rememberme.RememberMeAuthenticationFilter.()

Am I missing any dependencies?

Answer 1

The correct class path for RememberMeAuthenticatioinProvider is:
org.springframework.security.authentication.RememberMeAuthenticationProvider
I think there's a typo in your document.
Your other bean reference should be updated too
Edit
It seems you're using the newer version of RememberMeAuthenticationProvider than your document.
The default constructor for RememberMeAuthenticationProvider is not public anymore. This is the only constructor left:
RememberMeAuthenticationFilter(AuthenticationManager authenticationManager, RememberMeServices rememberMeServices)
So you must provide constructor arguments:
<bean id="rememberMeAuthenticationProvider"
class="org.springframework.security.authentication.rememberme.RememberMeAuthenticationProvider">
<constructor-arg ref="yourAuthManager"/>
<constructor-arg ref="rememberMeServices"/>
<property name="key" value="springRocks" />
</bean>
