Spring Boot Serving .jsp <jar> - maven

Question

Playing around trying to wrap my head around Spring Boot i cant make the jsp pages display. Have the daos etc working so no probs there but i cant for the life of me make it display a simple jsp page (no data passed in, just a simple page)
Have read so many things around the jsp limitations but didnt really understand what to do to bypass them.
If someone can help out with what i am missing here please.

Answer 1

I think, everything is correct expect jsp path, you can try to load all jsp files to /resources/WEB-INF/jsp/ this folder.
PS>I did not see WEB-INF folder in your resources folder you can create it manually

Answer 2

Solved!
Changed the packaging in the pom.xml to <packaging>war</packaging>
Then added the following bean to WebappApplication.java Class (made sure it points to the correct folder which after the latest changes is /webapp/view/ jsp's are in here):
#Bean
public ViewResolver internalResourceViewResolver() {
InternalResourceViewResolver bean = new InternalResourceViewResolver();
bean.setViewClass(JstlView.class);
bean.setPrefix("/view/");
bean.setSuffix(".jsp");
return bean;
}
And it works. Don't really understand why but its a start.
