I am learning Spring MVC from a book called "Spring in Action". However. I am getting 404 error when I hit the correct controller. I am using annotations rather than xml configurations, so it is hard to find from web. You can see the very simple classes and configs I am using
SpittrWebInitializer.java
package spittr.config;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.support.AbstractAnnotationConfigDispatcherServletInitializer;
public class SpittrWebAppInitializer extends AbstractAnnotationConfigDispatcherServletInitializer {
@Override
protected Class<?>[] getRootConfigClasses() {
return new Class<?>[] {RootConfig.class};
}
@Override
protected Class<?>[] getServletConfigClasses() {
return new Class<?>[] {WebConfig.class};
}
@Override
protected String[] getServletMappings() {
return new String[] {"/"};
}
}
RootConfig.java
package spittr.config;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.FilterType;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.config.annotation.EnableWebMvc;
@Configuration
@ComponentScan(basePackages = "spittr",
excludeFilters = @ComponentScan.Filter(type = FilterType.ANNOTATION,
value = EnableWebMvc.class))
public class RootConfig {
}
WebConfig.java
package spittr.config;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ViewResolver;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.config.annotation.DefaultServletHandlerConfigurer;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.config.annotation.EnableWebMvc;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.config.annotation.WebMvcConfigurerAdapter;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver;
@Configuration
@EnableWebMvc
@ComponentScan(basePackages = {"spittr.web"})
public class WebConfig extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {
@Bean
public ViewResolver viewResolver() {
InternalResourceViewResolver resolver = new InternalResourceViewResolver();
resolver.setPrefix("/WEB-INF/views/");
resolver.setSuffix(".jsp");
resolver.setExposeContextBeansAsAttributes(true);
return resolver;
}
@Override
public void configureDefaultServletHandling(DefaultServletHandlerConfigurer configurer) {
configurer.enable();
}
}
HomeController.java
package spittr.web;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
@Controller
public class HomeController {
@RequestMapping(value = "/home", method = RequestMethod.GET)
private String home() {
return "home";
}
}
and finally under resources/WEB-INF/views/ package I have one jsp called home.jsp which is like;
<html>
<body>
<h1>Spring 4.0.2 MVC web service</h1>
<h3>Welcome!!!</h3>
</body>
</html>
The can hit the controller, so I know they are initialized without any problem, however, context is not able to find the proper jsp. I appreciate for your help. Thanks
