@Autowired and sessionFactoryBean in giflib not autowiring

I am following along with the video. When I attempt to autowire anything in my app giflib I keep getting warnings about field injection is not recommended. When I attempt to run the app after entering all the info shown in the video series the Spring app will not start because all of the objects that are dependent on the sessionFactory are not being autowired. When I examine the LocalSessionFactory bean in DataConfig it will show me the autowired candidates and clicking on the icon will direct me to the appropriate DAO. I am more than lost here.

Could the instructor for the video provide insight as to why this is happening?
