Hibernate + Spring autowire error - spring

Question

I am having this error for few days and seem to get no luck. Tried googling but still can't get it working. Looking on the log it keeps on telling me that there is something wrong with my SessionFactory but I just can't get it. UserDao and RoleDao are both interface that I implemented. Hope to hear from you guys.
Error Logs.

Answer 1

Your <context:annotation-config/> is in your applicationContext.xml which doesn't have a bean that can be mapped to your sessionFactory. It looks like you either need to merge the two configurations or import dispatcher-context.xml in your applicationContext.xml.

Answer 2

Had the same problem, unable to make injection work.
My problem was "sequence". Hibernate xml must be invoked first.
dispatcher-servlet.xml:
