I'm doing this:

 <resolver:DataConnector id="tgtidDB" xsi:type="RelationalDatabase" ...
   <resolver:Dependency ref="uwRegID" />
   <resolver:Dependency ref="tgtidDB1" />
   <resolver:FailoverDataConnector ref="tgtidDB1" />
     ....
 </resolver:DataConnector>

 <resolver:DataConnector id="tgtidDB1" xsi:type="RelationalDatabase" ...
   <resolver:Dependency ref="uwRegID" />
     ....
 </resolver:DataConnector>


When tomcat starts I get:


(Both dataconnectors appear to be configured OK.)

then:

ERROR [edu.internet2.middleware.shibboleth.common.config.BaseService:200]
 - Configuration was not loaded for shibboleth.AttributeResolver service,
    error creating components. The root cause of this error was:
     java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Method must not be null
   org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException:
    Error creating bean with name 'tgtidDB':
     Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is
       org.springframework.beans.TypeMismatchException:
        Failed to convert property value of type [java.lang.String]
         to required type [java.lang.String] for property
          'failoverDataConnectorId'; nested exception is
            java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Method must not be null
    at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.
      AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.
        doCreateBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:547)


This comes right before I would otherwise see:

...ShibbolethAttributeResolver:490] - Loading 4 principal connectors

... ShibbolethAttributeResolver:499] - Loading 2 data connectors

etc.
