I have the spring jars of spring-3.2.0.RC1.jar and trying to implement Apache ActiveMQ helloWorld program from tutorial given here. The xml configuration file is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<beans xmlns:jms="http://www.springframework.org/schema/jms"
    xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p" 
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xsi:schemalocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/jms 
    http://www.springframework.org/schema/jms/spring-jms.xsd">

    <bean class="org.apache.activemq.command.ActiveMQQueue" id="destination">
        <constructor-arg value="TEST.Q1"></constructor-arg>
    </bean>

    <bean class="org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQConnectionFactory" id="connectionFactory"
        p:brokerurl="tcp://localhost:8161"></bean>

    <bean class="com.jms.helloworld.listner.MessageListenerImpl" id="simpleMessageListener">
        <bean
            class="org.springframework.jms.listener.DefaultMessageListenerContainer"
            id="jmsContainer">
            <property name="connectionFactory" ref="connectionFactory"></property>
            <property name="destination" ref="destination"></property>
            <property name="messageListener" ref="simpleMessageListener"></property>
        </bean>
    </bean>
</beans>    

main:

public static void main(String[] args) throws JMSException {
        System.out.println("LISTNER STARTED");
        ApplicationContext context =  new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext("src/com/jms/helloworld/config/JMSConfig.xml");
    }

**Exception on console**

I don't know what is wrong with the beans.So far any suggestion in other question doesn't help. Any help?

Try this, assuming you're on Spring 3.1:

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" 
       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-3.1.xsd">

Replace 3.1 on the last line with whatever major Spring version you use. Meaning: there is no 3.1.1 XSD even though there is a Spring version 3.1.1.
