I tried for Configuration with MvcConfiguration.java as Dispatcher file.But it throw errors while creating bean for controller and DAO file.

I know there are lots of question regarding this error on stackoverflow. But I'm not able to solve and stuck in it.

Following are files in which I found below errors.

EmployeeController.java

package com.jwt.controller;

import com.jwt.model.Employee;
import com.jwt.service.EmployeeService;

@Controller
public class EmployeeController {

    private static final Logger logger = Logger
            .getLogger(EmployeeController.class);

    public EmployeeController() {
        System.out.println("EmployeeController()");
    }

    @Autowired
    private EmployeeService employeeService;

    @RequestMapping(value = "/")
    public ModelAndView listEmployee(ModelAndView model) throws IOException {
        List<Employee> listEmployee = employeeService.getAllEmployees();
        model.addObject("listEmployee", listEmployee);
        model.setViewName("home");
        return model;
    }

    @RequestMapping(value = "/newEmployee", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView newContact(ModelAndView model) {
        Employee employee = new Employee();
        model.addObject("employee", employee);
        model.setViewName("EmployeeForm");
        return model;
    }

    @RequestMapping(value = "/saveEmployee", method = RequestMethod.POST)
    public ModelAndView saveEmployee(@ModelAttribute Employee employee) {
        if (employee.getId() == 0) { // if employee id is 0 then creating the
            // employee other updating the employee
            employeeService.addEmployee(employee);
        } else {
            employeeService.updateEmployee(employee);
        }
        return new ModelAndView("redirect:/");
    }

    @RequestMapping(value = "/deleteEmployee", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView deleteEmployee(HttpServletRequest request) {
        int employeeId = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("id"));
        employeeService.deleteEmployee(employeeId);
        return new ModelAndView("redirect:/");
    }

    @RequestMapping(value = "/editEmployee", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView editContact(HttpServletRequest request) {
        int employeeId = Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("id"));
        Employee employee = employeeService.getEmployee(employeeId);
        ModelAndView model = new ModelAndView("EmployeeForm");
        model.addObject("employee", employee);

        return model;
    }

}

"Failed to instantiate [com.jwt.dao.EmployeeDAOImpl]: No default constructor found; nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodException" ... that's plain and simple English, what is unclear about that? – Tom
Possible duplicate of No default constructor found; nested exception is java.lang.NoSuchMethodException with Spring MVC? – Tom
Can you add your EmployeeService implementation as well here? – gohil90
@gohil90. Yeah I just edited my question with EmployeeService implementation please check it. – Bhavin

My suggestion would be keep it simple.

  1. Remove below bean creation from configuration class - 
@Bean
public EmployeeDAO getContactDAO() {
    return new EmployeeDAOImpl(getDataSource());
}

@Bean
public EmployeeController getEmployeeController() {
    return new EmployeeController();
}
  1. Annotate controller class with @Controller, service with @Service & DAO with @Repository. Then, you can easily autowire them in other class.
@Repository
public class EmployeeDAOImpl {
}

@Service
public class EmployeeService {  
    @Autowired
    private EmployeeDAO employeeDAO;
}

@Controller
public class EmployeeController {
    @Autowired
    private EmployeeService employeeService;
}
  1. Lastly, for your EmployeeDAOImpl class, remove any parameterized constructor you have for datasource. You can simply autowire that too as you have created @Bean for datasource in configuration file - 
@Bean
public DataSource datasource() {
    System.out.println("in datasoure");
    return dataSource;
}

@Repository
public class EmployeeDAOImpl {
    @Autowired
    private Datasource datasource;

}

This way your issue should get fixed.

@Autowired
private EmployeeService employeeService;

This is the issue. I see a dependency for EmployeeService in your controller implementation, but you did not paste the EmployeeService class definition here. Does this class exist and is there a bean being defined for it? The controller bean is expecting this bean to be injected by Spring, but Spring is not able to find it in the application context, since it does not exist, and hence the exception.
