Spring MVC dispatcher issue - spring

Question

I am new to Spring MVC and I am converting my standard Web Java project. I am having a problem making the project call a controller by default instead of a JSP page. In the web project before every request was handled by a controller and this doesn't seem to be the case with Spring could anyone advise?
I am using Netbeans and my code so far is below:
web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_1.xsd"
version="3.1">
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/dispatcher-servlet.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
<listener>
<listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
</listener>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<session-config>

</session-timeout>

</welcome-file-list>

import static com.spring.InternetJavaSpring.BusinessLogic.UserBusLog.currentUser;
import com.spring.InternetJavaSpring.Model.Login;
import java.util.Map;
import javax.validation.Valid;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.validation.BindingResult;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ModelAttribute;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
#Controller
#RequestMapping(value="login")
public class LoginCont {
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String login(Map<String, Object>model) {
Login user = new Login();
model.put("loginForm", user);
return "login";
}
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String loginUser(#Valid #ModelAttribute("loginForm")
Login xLogin, BindingResult xResult, Map<String, Object>model) {
if(xResult.hasErrors()){
return "login";
}
UserBusLog ULogic = new UserBusLog();
ULogic.Login(xLogin);
model.put("fname", currentUser.getFName());
model.put("lname", currentUser.getLName());
return "home";
}
Any help would be a appreciated as I have spent two days on this and have got no where. Many thanks

It looks like the controller class is not registered because the package name specified in <context:component-scan> seem to be incorrect. Change it as below and check if it works.
<context:component-scan base-package="com.spring.InternetJavaSpring.Controllers" />
<context:annotation-config />
