Java Spring with Hibernate Data-Driven Application Design Add a service for Contact objects

Bummer! ContactDao's findById method was not called

Can someone please help, here's my objective:

Add an autowired ContactDao to the ContactServiceImpl class, and use the ContactDao class's findById(Long) method to implement the findById method in the ContactServiceImpl class.

com/teamtreehouse/contactmgr/service/ContactService.java
package com.teamtreehouse.contactmgr.service;

import com.teamtreehouse.contactmgr.model.Contact;

public interface ContactService {
    List<Contact> findAll();
    Contact findById(Long id);
}
com/teamtreehouse/contactmgr/service/ContactServiceImpl.java
package com.teamtreehouse.contactmgr.service;

import com.teamtreehouse.contactmgr.dao.ContactDao;
import com.teamtreehouse.contactmgr.model.Contact;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;

@Service
public class ContactServiceImpl implements ContactService {
    @Autowired
    private ContactDao cotactDao;
    @Override
    public List<Contact> findAll() {
        return ContactDao.findAll();
    }
    @Override
    public Contact findById(Long id) {
      return ContactDao.findById(id);
    }
}

You have a spelling error:

    private ContactDao cotactDao;

should be

 private ContactDao contactDao;

also you capitalized contactDao in the return statements.
