The problem is that you are mixing different versions of Spring, you are mixing (2.0.8, 3.1.4 and 4.0.2) in your project. That is trouble waiting to happen.
To prevent these kind of things there is now a so called "bill of materials" POM which you can import.
You need to add a dependencyManagement section to import the bom.
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-framework-bom</artifactId>
<version>4.0.5.RELEASE</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>import</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
Now in your dependencies you can remove the version and replace spring-dao with spring-orm. Added benefit is that all your spring-* dependencies will now be managed to the latest release and you only have a single location for your version number.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-context-support</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-jdbc</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-orm</artifactId>
</dependency>
You could apply the same trick for Spring Data as that also has a bom.
