Spring Dispatcher Servlet query

[Vishal Hegde]

Dear Ranchers,

I am getting the below error on Line 43.Please advice where I am going wrong?

Line 43 in XML document from ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/springapp-servlet.xml] is invalid; nested exception is org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.3: Element 'beans' cannot have character [children], because the type's content type is element-only.
