I have a Tomcat server running Spring 4.1.6.

Spring exposes a REST API which is consumed by an AngularJS frontend.

Now I tried serving the frontend (.html, .js, .css, .jpg) with Spring Web MVC. Apparently this is pretty easy in Spring boot by placing the content in dedicated directories (How to deploy AngularJS app and Spring Restful API service on the same domain/server?).

But how do I do the same on Spring Web MVC? I've tried different things but so far only received a lot of 404s when I tried to access the content.

You just need to configure your application context with

<mvc:resources mapping="/resources/**" location="/resources/" />

and then put the files in WEB-INF/resources/ folder
