I am trying to setup a simple restful web application, using tomcat 6.0.32, cxf 2.4.1. Anytime I issue any call, I get back an exception "No bean named 'cxf' is defined", where cxf is my bus.
Looking at the application log, I can see the cxf instance is created, and cached.

But when a request comes in, it always fails saying it can't find the bean.

The only thing I can think of is that the bean is inserted in one context, and is being retrieved from another, but can't validate this or find a way around it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
