InternalResourceViewResolver doesn't load page from subfolder - spring

Question

under the webapp folder of my application i have a folder called meetingroom
and in that folder i have a jsp page called viewrooms.jsp
- DispatcherServlet configuration is as follows:
<listener>
<listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
</listener>
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>
classpath:spring/config/applicationContext.xml
</param-value>
</context-param>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>spring</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>classpath:spring/config/applicationContext.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>spring</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/meetingroom/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
- InternalResourceViewResolver bean:
<bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
<property name="prefix" value="/"/>
<property name="suffix" value=".jsp"/>
</bean>
- Controller:
#Controller
#RequestMapping("/viewrooms.jsp")
public class ViewRooms {
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String get() {
log.debug("######## GET METHOD FOR VIEW ROOMS ########");
return "meetingroom/viewrooms";
}
}
How i am accessing the page: http://localhost:8081/MyAPP/meetingroom/viewrooms.jsp
ISSUE: the controller get method is getting called in infinite loop and the page is not rendered.
please advise why it's not working, thanks.

Answer 1

IMHO #RequestMapping("/viewrooms.jsp") points to /MyAPP/viewrooms.jsp
changing #RequestMapping to "/meetingroom/viewrooms.jsp" would be my next guess for the fix of your problem

Answer 2

problem fixed after changing the pages folder name, maybe it was conflicting with the servlet url mapping.
