How do I resolve BeanDefinitionStoreException: IOException parsing XML document from ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/dispatcher-servlet.xml] in Java Spring MVC web project?

I get this error when I run the project on Apache tomcat server v7.0 I am struck with this problem for past 4 days. I have also asked this in stackoverflow and no positive response. Please help me.

• Answer:
