Channel not found error in - Spring BlazeDS Integration

Question

I'm trying to convert a simple chat Java/BlazeDS project over to the new Spring BlazeDS setup.

I started fresh and copied in the blazeds-spring folder contents in the blazeds 4 turnkey distro which added a few new files

web.xml
flex-servlet.xml 
spring/
    app-config.xml 
    infrastructure-config.xml 
    security-config.xml
flex/
    services.config

services.config now has removed references to messaging, remoting and proxy configs. My flex swf is compiling against this services-config.

<services>
    <default-channels>
        <channel ref="my-polling-amf" />
    </default-channels>
</services>

my flex-servlet.xml contains

<flex:message-broker>
    <flex:message-service
default-channels="my-streaming-amf,my-longpolling-amf,my-polling-amf" />
    <flex:secured />
</flex:message-broker>

<flex:message-destination id="chat" />

The problem I have when I launch the swf is this message

[MessagingError message='Destination 'chat' either does not exist or the destination has no channels defined (and the application does not define any default channels.)']

Does someone know where its looking for this destination and if anything appears incorrect from my setup?

At first make sure that you are using the correct filename. The default location/filename for the BlazeDS XML configuration file is:

/WEB-INF/flex/services-config.xml
