spring mvc validation meesage param - spring

I'm using spring mvc 4 , and there is a problem with message params in validation messages.
for example the output of #Size is : size must be between min and max.
and key bundle in hibernate validator is size must be between {min} and {max}.
this is my spring mvc config :

where is the problem?

finally i figured out the problem ...
i have to set
messageSource.setUseCodeAsDefaultMessage(false);
and then all message params replaced with the correct value !

Unsupported view type /WEB-INF/index.xhtml only types supported by this FlowViewResolver implementation are [.jsp] and [.jspx]

We have a problem with Spring-webflow configuration and view redirection.
Upon login, you should enter the configured home page, but you are left in a redirect loop to the error page.
Checking the log traces, it is verified that when you submit in the login, it redirects to the corresponding view, but an error occurs with the spring component that controls the views and that only allows jsp and jspx.
We are working with Spring-webflow 2.4.1, Spring-mvc 3.1.4, jsf 2.2 and primefaces 4.0.
We have been verifying the different ways of how to do it with xml since it is an old application and what we are doing is refactoring from ant to maven in order to proceed with the modifications that are required.
The error that is generated is the following:

Got an answer :
Use --add-modules to add module in classpath.
As Java has not yet removed from module from java 9. Java has only deprecated and does not add javax.xml.bind module on classpath by default.
So if we want to add javax.xml.bind on classpath we can add using following command.
--add-modules java.xml.bind

I will be pleased for any suggestion.
Do not configure both jdbcUrl and dataSourceClassName, pick one style or the other. In this case, I suggest you stick with jdbcUrl.

My controller is:
#Controller
#RequestMapping("/Enquiries")
#SessionAttributes({"enqList", "search"})
public class EnquiryController {
private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(EnquiryController.class);
private PagedListHolder<Enquiry> enqList = null;
private int pageSize = 10;
#Autowired
private EnquiryDao enquiryDao;
#RequestMapping("/viewAllEnquiries")
public String getAllEnquiries(#RequestParam(required=false) String page, Model model) {
if ("next".equals(page) && enqList != null) {
enqList.nextPage();
} else if ("previous".equals(page) && enqList != null) {
enqList.previousPage();
} else {
// well there is no page parameter, so it must be a new request
enqList = new PagedListHolder<Enquiry>(enquiryDao.getAllEnquiries());
enqList.setPageSize(pageSize);
}
model.addAttribute("search", new Search());
model.addAttribute("enqList", enqList);
return "viewAllEnquiries";
}
This controller is not even called. It does however successfully manage to resolve the welcome view with:
<mvc:view-controller path="/" view-name="welcome"/>
Problem solved,
I wasn't scanning the controller (context:component-scan) and had not wired the bean either in the Spring context.
So to fix it, I added it via spring injection:
<bean id="enquiryDao" class="ecommerce.dao.EnquiryDao"/>
<bean id="enquiryController" class="ecommerce.controller.EnquiryController">
<property name="enquiryDao" ref="enquiryDao"/>
</bean>

PersistenceAnnotationBeanPostProcessor vs JpaVendorAdapter

I'm setting up a maven-spring-hibernate-mysql-tomcat environment.
I would like to inject my Entity manager using the #PersistenceContext annotation.
As I understand to do this, I should have PersistenceAnnotationBeanPostProcessor defined in my application context, pointing to my persistence.xml file.
In this case my application context could be looking like this more or less:

My persistence.xml could look like this:
<persistence-unit name="myPU" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
<provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
<properties>
<property name="hibernate.transaction.flush_before_completion"
value="true" />
<property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLInnoDBDialect" />
<property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="true" />
</properties>
</persistence-unit>
So now I guess I should be able to inject my entity manager using the #PersistenceContext annotation, at list this is what I get from the documentation. Before I'mm getting to JpaVendorAdapter, my first question would refer the entity manager factory definition:
The following properties:
<property name="persistenceXmlLocation" value="classpath:META-INF/persistence.xml"/>
<property name="persistenceUnitName" value="myPU" />
Are these required to be referred from the entity manager factory? Is it a must?
My second question would be regarding the JpaVendorAdapter, and in my case HibernateJpaVendorAdapter.
If I use HibernateJpaVendorAdapter, do I still need to have a persistence.xml file? Since some of the properties are overlapping. Moreover, do I still need to have PersistenceAnnotationBeanPostProcessor defined, pointing to my persistence.xml file? Can these 2 go together (PersistenceAnnotationBeanPostProcessor and HibernateJpaVendorAdapter)? Should they go together? What is the best practice, assuming I'm avoiding any JDNI style definitions?
Thanks in advance
The combination of data source bean and HibernateJpaVendorAdapter allows you to get rid of persistence.xml with Spring 3.1. Check out this article:
http://www.baeldung.com/2011/12/13/the-persistence-layer-with-spring-3-1-and-jpa/
So the answers:
They are not a must.
No, you don't need to have a persistence.xml.
I am not exactly sure of what use PersistenceAnnotationBeanPostProcessor is.
<context:component-scan base-package="com.demo.dao" />
<bean id="entityManagerFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="persistenceUnitName" value="hibernate-resourceLocal"/>
</bean>
<tx:annotation-driven/>
<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager">
<property name="entityManagerFactory" ref="entityManagerFactory" />
</bean>
My Spring application context xml looks as simple as this. And it is working.
I don't what the best practice is, but I will keep persistence.xml so that in case I need to expose my service as session bean, it can be easily done.
