des problèmes avec applicationContext.xml, la configuration de Hibernate, Spring MVC, et MySql

Je suis en train de configuration de spring mvc 3.0 + Hibernate + MySql avec Maven.
Ayant des problèmes frustrants avec l'applicationContext.xml.
Le contrôleur au service de la DAO travaux, juste que je vais avoir des problèmes de configuration d'Hibernate pour MySql.

Googlé beaucoup de choses en ligne, mais les différents tutoriels ont des instructions différentes, donc je suis tout foiré maintenant.

applicationContext.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"

Voici les premières lignes de la trace de la pile:
