mvc:annotation-driven is not bound
This is an IDE Error, Which can be resolved by following to
xmlns:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
try this it worked for me:
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
xmlns:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc
http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc-3.0.xsd">
<context:component-scan base-package="com.mkyong.common.controller" />
<mvc:annotation-driven />
It should work like that, and it works for me. The problem might be in your IDE / xml editor. Try ignoring the xml error and run the application.
