Are you saying Spring is wrong about that?

No, i have properties file at the right path, but is it gives me the above error, what might be
the reason. Any other way it can be set on spring applicationcontext

No, i have properties file at the right path

It sounds unlikely that you would have a folder called "src" on your classpath. Can you post a directory structure of your project? If you are using Eclipse (or other IDE) posting a screenshot of the project layout/structure would help!
