Problem with The "Configure Spring for Hibernate" task.

I try to set the DriverClassName to the the right resource, but it says it has a value of null. What is the issue with my code?

In the preview I get 22 pages of error messages which I dont understand.

Edit: Sorry. I thought it automatically included the code.

Code:

package com.teamtreehouse.contactmgr.config;

import org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp2.BasicDataSource;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.PropertySource;
import org.springframework.core.env.Environment;
import org.springframework.core.io.ClassPathResource;
import org.springframework.core.io.Resource;
import org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.LocalSessionFactoryBean;

import javax.sql.DataSource;

@Configuration
public class DataConfig {
    @Autowired
  private Environment env;


    @Bean
  public DataSource datasource(){
    BasicDataSource ds = new BasicDataSource();

    ds.setDriverClassName(env.getProperty("org.h2.Driver"));
    ds.setUrl(env.getProperty("jdbc:h2:mem:contactmgr"));

    return ds;
  }

}
