Spring data mongodb: mongodb repositories not found when autowired - spring-mvc

Question

I have the following stack:
Spring MVC web app
Spring Data MongoDB
When I deploy the webapp and start server (Tomcat 7) I'am getting the following error :
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'userService': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: private com.qopuir.repository.UserRepository com.qopuir.service.UserService.userRepository; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [com.qopuir.repository.UserRepository] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency.

I don't understand why Repositories are not found during autowiring of Services. Any idea?

This is one of the repositories :

import org.springframework.data.mongodb.repository.MongoRepository;
import com.qopuir.domain.User;
public interface UserRepository extends MongoRepository<User, String> {
User findByUsername(String username);
}
Here is the UserService :
package com.qopuir.service;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
import com.qopuir.repository.RoleRepository;
import com.qopuir.repository.UserRepository;
#Service
public class UserService {
#Autowired
private UserRepository userRepository;
#Autowired
private RoleRepository roleRepository;
//... some methods
}
I don't know if it is a problem of configuration or a problem with version of libraries (I am using the last ones)

Answer 1

You have a typo in the base-package attribute of mongo:repositories in your spring-data.xml file:
<mongo:repositories base-package="com.qoupir.repository" mongo-template-ref="mongoTemplate" />
should be
<mongo:repositories base-package="com.qopuir.repository" mongo-template-ref="mongoTemplate" />
