I'm trying to make a web with netbeans 7.4, SPRING 3.2.3, JSF 2.2 with Primefaces 3.5 and Glassfish 4.0.

My objective is to create a very simple project that injects a service in a backing bean. Till now I have created a new project in netbeans with these 2 frameworks. These are the files in my project:

Project TREE

Index.xhtml

IndexBB.java

Servicio.java

ServicioImpl.java

applicationContext.XML

dispatcher-servlet.XML

        </property>
    </bean>

As you can see the project is VERY simple. Just a button that takes the value from a service an puts it in a variable.

The problem is that when I press the button Glassfish gives me a NullPointer with this stackTrace:

In my opinion the service is not being correctly injected, so when I press the button it is NULL.

I have searched over the net with no result (most of the code I have found doesn't work).
May some person with experience configuring Spring take a look to my project to help me?
Thanks in advance!
