spring 3.1 setting profile - spring

Question

I want to start using profile in Spring 3.1 and i found a problem.
In my hibernate xml file i've set
<beans profile="test">
<context:property-placeholder location="/WEB-INF/springtest.properties" />
</beans>
<beans profile="production">
<context:property-placeholder location="/WEB-INF/spring.properties" />
</beans>
And in web.xml i've set:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>appServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/spring/appServlet/servlet-context.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>spring.profiles.active</param-name>
<param-value>production</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
but when i'm trying to run application i have issue, that spring doesn't see variables from spring.properties file.
Should i set something else ?
UPDATE
hibernate file looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"

Answer 1

I think the reason is that since you want this in your root application context, loaded up through ContextLoaderListener, the way to specify profile is not through the DispatcherServlet's init param, but ServletContext's init param, this way in your web.xml file:
<context-param>
<param-name>spring.profiles.active</param-name>
<param-value>production</param-value>
</context-param>
