Maven dependencies in Tomcat

I'm fairly familiar with Spring but, I'm quite new to MVC. I have a project that has Module_Server, and Module_Web. Both are under Maven and both run individually, seemingly without problem. My issue concerns connecting them together. To be precise, I cannot autowire a Module_Server @Service component into a Module_Web controller. I repeat, without the autowired service component everything runs fine. However, when I autowire a service bean into my controllers, I get the following error:

 Error creating bean with name 'CREATE_NEW_PLAYER_SERVICE': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: com.prussell.dao.PlayerDAO com.prussell.service.CreateNewPlayerService.playerDAO; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'LOCATION_DAO': Injection of persistence dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [javax.persistence.EntityManagerFactory] is defined

I've seen similar errors posted elsewhere on SO, but haven't managed to isolate my problem. My MVC module is really simple currently: here is the web.xml
