Spring webflow - Can't define global-transitions - spring-webflow

Question

I can't seem to define any global transitions in flow definition file. As soon as I define a global-transition, I am getting exceptions.
Here is the flow definition
my-flow.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<flow xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/webflow"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="
http://www.springframework.org/schema/webflow
http://www.springframework.org/schema/webflow/spring-webflow-2.0.xsd">
<!-- set up appData initial values -->
<on-start>
<evaluate expression="SupportUtil.setUpInitialAppData(flowRequestContext)" result="flowScope.appData"/>
</on-start>
<global-transitions>
<transition on="login" to="login" />
<transition on="logout" to="logout" />
</global-transitions>
<view-state id="searchHome" view="searchHome" model="searchModel">
<transition on="grpSearch" to="performGrpSearch"/>
<transition on="indSearch" to="performIndSearch"/>
</view-state>
</flow>
Once I start the app, I get following error,
org.springframework.webflow.engine.builder.FlowBuilderException:

Part of the exception in bold letters is really confusing to me. Why is that only those elements are expected. I have used the latest flow definition schema from the reference tutorials
http://static.springsource.org/spring-webflow/docs/2.3.x/reference/html/ch03s05.html and http://static.springsource.org/spring-webflow/docs/2.3.x/reference/html/ch10s02.html

Answer 1

Nevermind. I got the element sequence wrong. should be after all the definitions.
