Unable to implement Spring AOP + AspectJ XML to my application - spring

Question

I am trying to implement a logger using aop in my spring application. But at the moment when I try to add the **<aop:aspectj-autoproxy />** tag, I get the error below. I have added all the needed jars needed for aop. If I remove this tag, the spring xml file shows no error on server start-up. I searched for this error, and I came to know that there might be some issue with the jars added to the application but I am unable to find the problem. Kindly help!
