Answer 1

Cannot find class [com.springframework.BlogController] for bean with name 'com.springframework.BlogController'

No class called com.springframework.BlogController on your webapp's classpath.

Check if the qualified classname is correct in /WEB-INF/"*".xml

Or, check if /WEB-INF/classes directory in missing.
