If you are using the latest Spring Security, why aren't you setting it up simply with

<security:http> tag. Instead of defining a bean for each and every Spring Security class.

From the looks of what you posted, it looks like the old days when you had 300 lines of xml to setup Security. Instead of that one tag.

Thanks

Hi Mark,
Thanks for the reply. but I did not follow you completely.
How will adding this tag <security:http> in security xml solve the issue of filter chain and login.
Could you please elaborate. Thanks for your time .
