AnnotationConfigBeanDefinitionParser ERROR

"Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Context namespace element 'annotation-config' and its parser class [org.springframework.context.annotation.AnnotationConfigBeanDefinitionParser] are only available on JDK 1.5 and higher"

if you have seen this error from tomcat's catalina.out logfile,
it must be check where your JAVA_HOME in your tomcat's startup.sh

I am sure that this solution that maybe you will get to resolve the problem mostly.
