I am trying to learn spring mvc and facing a problem (which seems to be a common one). I have searched a lot of solutions but nothing is helping me out...
My web.xml is:

When I try to run hello.jsp, the error is the requested resource is not available.
Hello.jsp:
<%#page contentType="text/html" pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>

<form action="hi">

HelloWorldController.ava
#Controller
public class HelloWorldController {
#RequestMapping("/")
public String hello() {
return "hello";
}
#RequestMapping(value = "/hi", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String hi(#RequestParam("name") String name, Model model) {
String message = "Hi " + name + "!";
model.addAttribute("message", message);
return "hi";
}
}
Edit1:
The problem is occurring because of tomcat server as my simple html page is also not running and it is throwing the same exception. I am using tomcat server version 7. Can anyone hint me out the cause of this exception?
Tomcat doesn't know about hello.jsp since it is inside WEB-INF.
Change
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>hello.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
to
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>/</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
It will work.
This could be a the case of Hello.jsp. The first letter of Hello.jsp is capitalized yet in your controller you are returning a lower case hello. If you change your controller to return the string "Hello" it should work.
Thank you everyone for your answers. Actually I was able to solve my issue by just changing the location of html and jsp pages from web inf folder to web content folder. I dont know why it worked but pages are being run by the server now.

I am doing a spring web-mvc app using maven and tomcat server. So the problem is after clicking on the link of the index.jsp, it is not redirecting to welcome.jsp.

This is my directory structure. i am not getting how to go to welcome.jsp.
Can someone help me?? Why it is not redirecting to the welcome.jsp??
Issue is with your index.jsp
<h3><a href="welcome">Click here to See Welcome Message... /></h3>
You are mentioning direct welcome in anchor which wouldn't work here.
Use is like that
use <form action="page2.jsp">
or
submit to a servlet using
<form action="targetServlet">,
and then:
redirect to page2, using response.sendRedirect("page2.jsp")
or
forward to page2, using request.getRequestDispatcher("page2.jsp").forward()

EL expressions not evaluated in JSP

Closed 6 years ago.
My project is to let an end user login and then go to another page to display a message. If the login details are wrong it displays an appropriate error message and gives them another chance to login in. The problem is that the message that is meant to be displayed is not. Instead all that is being displayed is;
Message is: ${message}
index.jsp
<form action="login.html" method="post">
Name: <input type="text" name="name"/>
Password: <input type="password" name="password"/>
<input type="submit" value="submit"/>
</form>
LoginController.java
package com.loginmvc.domain;
#Controller
public class LoginController {
#RequestMapping("/login")
public ModelAndView login(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp)
throws ServletException, IOException {
String name = req.getParameter("name");
String password = req.getParameter("password");
if(password.equals("admin")) {
String message = "Welcome " + name;
return new ModelAndView("profilepage", "message", message);
} else {
return new ModelAndView("errorpage", "message",
"Sorry, the name or password is incorrect.");
}

You are using an old descriptor in your web.xml file. This will result in the EL being ignored:
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC
"-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd" >
<web-app>
If you are following a tutorial, I would recommend that you find a newer one. However, in the meantime, updating your web.xml should solve your immediate problem:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd"
version="3.0">
...
</web-app>
Make sure that you are using : this Taglib in your JSP
<%# taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c"%>
and to print message : <c:if test="${not empty message}">${message}</c:if>
I highly recommend you to use IDE like eclipse or netbeans so that it would be easy to detect taglib errors and warning in your jsp.
I've seen this question a lot but however I am still unable to fix my problem. Hope you will be able to guide me.'

It worked without me changing anything after some time. I do not understand why this is unreliable :(
Is there some best practice ?

There are several pieces of your application that need to be modified for it to work as intended. The first piece is the Dispatcher Servlet mapping in web.xml. In Spring the dispatcher is used to route particular requests from the client to Spring controllers within the application. What requests are routed via the dispatcher is determined by the url-pattern specified in the web.xml file for the servlet: org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet.
In your case we want to set the url-pattern to something that does not conflict with accessing your jsp files. Since you have specified a viewResolver in your Spring configuration that prefixes generic names with /WEB-INF/jsp/ and suffixes them with .jsp, we must use a url-pattern other than .jsp.
If the .jsp url-pattern were used, a request would first be processed by the dispatcher servlet and routed to any mapped controller. If the controller attempts to use a view name to navigate to another page, for example, home, the view name is prefixed/suffixed resulting in a url: /WEB-INF/jsp/home.jsp. This constructed URL matches the .jsp url-pattern specified for the dispatcher and an attempt to route /WEB-INF/jsp/home.jsp is made, most likely failing because no mapping is found.
To remedy this problem we setup your web.xml as follows:
Web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app version="2.5" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd">
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/applicationContext.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>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
As you can see, we map the dispatcher to the url-pattern *.do. This allows the dispatcher to be used to route requests without interference with common file prefixes.
Changing the url-pattern to *.do requires us to change the action on your form. I modified your form to the following:
Index.jsp
<%# page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java"%>
<html>
<head>
<title>Dynamic Tiles</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="home.do" method="post">
Please enter your name: <input type="text" name="visitorName" />
<input type="submit" value="Go" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
I also assumed that all of your .jsp files are located within the WEB-INF directory. This requires us to use a controller to access each of these .jsp files. Mappings to the controllers must be created in your Spring configuration file for the dispatcher and the appropriate controller for index.jsp must be created. Notice that I am using the .do suffix for the mappings.

IndexPageController.java
package com.sample;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.AbstractController;
public class IndexPageController extends AbstractController {
#Override
protected ModelAndView handleRequestInternal(HttpServletRequest arg0,
HttpServletResponse arg1) throws Exception {
return new ModelAndView("index");
}
}
Just to be thorough, I created a home.jsp file to test the application since one was not provided. Here is my home.jsp file:
Home.jsp
<%# taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>
<%# page session="false" %>
<html>
<head>
<title>Home</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>
Hello, ${visitorName}
</h1>
<P> The time on the server is ${serverTime}. </P>
</body>
</html>
You decided that dispatcher would only handle .htm-ended urls but then you want it to handle .jsp-ended url. For the latter to work just change url-pattern element's content in web.xml to, for example, something like this:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
