First of all, I am a newbie to Spring security and Intellij IDEA.
I have created a starter Spring Security Project in Intellij IDEA which uses the Spring version 3.2 and security version 3.1.
I am getting the following error in web.xml.
org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy' is not assignable to 'javax.servlet.Filter'
Here is my web.xml snippet.
<filter> <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name> <filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy</filter-class> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> Could someone please tell me what the issue is ? I searched in google and was not able to find the solution.
