Dave, Yep that's precisely what I'm saying re: change the id attribute of the bean to anything, the constructor-arg value will be used as a !method invocation. Yes, numerous redeployments and double checking that old libraries have been removed.
I do have actions defined in my spring context files - as an example: <bean id="userAction" scope="prototype" class="....xxxx.xxx..xxx.UserAction"> <constructor-arg ref="userService" /> <constructor-arg ref="roleService" /> </bean> Straight-forward and standard and no relation to 'repositoryPassword'. Classic mindf*#$k. ohwell.

Do you have any actions defined in any of your Spring context config files? > <bean id="repositoryPassword" > class="java.lang.String"> > <constructor-arg index="0" value="pass" /> > </bean> You're saying that even if you change the id attribute of this it's being used as a !method invocation?! (And you redeployed etc?) *That* is odd. You removed the old versions of the Spring (and any deps) from the deployment? d. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Shape Yahoo! in your own image.
