I have read some many similiar problems inlcluding: JQuery, Spring MVC @RequestBody and JSON - making it work together JSON request with JQuery/Ajax with Spring
The requirement is that the server will only accept application/json types. I am using a Spring MVC Controller. The code sends a response back as JSON through @ResponseBody. I want to get information through the @RequestBody in my Spring MVC Controller. I am using JSP to send JSON to Spring MVC Controller. My code and Spring MVC can be seen below:
I am new to JSON and Javascript.
JSP - index.jsp
<%@page language="java" contentType="text/html"%>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$('#myForm').on('submit', function(e) {
var frm = $("#myForm");
var dat = JSON.stringify(frm.serializeArray());
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: $('#myForm').attr('action'),
data: dat,
contentType: 'application/json',
dataType: 'json',
error: function() {
alert('failure');
}
success: function(hxr) {
alert("Success: " + xhr);
}
});
);
};
</script>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Application</h2>
<form id="myForm" action="/application/save" method="POST" accept="application/json" onclick="i()">
<input type="text" name="userId" value="User">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
When running this I am not getting any output. In the Chrome I get 404 Not found error and in Tomcat I get the following error:
org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.support.DefaultHandlerExceptionResolver handleNoSuchRequestHandlingMethod
WARNING: No matching handler method found for servlet request: path '/application/sa
ve', method 'POST', parameters map['userId' -> array<String>['User']]
Is something wrong here in the JSP part?

Controller
package com.web;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ResponseBody;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestBody;
import com.webchannel.domain.User;
import com.webchannel.domain.UserResponse;
@Controller
@RequestMapping("/application/*")
public class SaveController {
@RequestMapping(value = "save", method = RequestMethod.POST, headers = {"content-type=application/json"})
public @ResponseBody UserResponse save(@RequestBody User user) throws Exception {
UserResponse userResponse = new UserResponse();
System.out.println("UserId :" + " " + user.getUserId());
return userResponse;
}
@RequestMapping(value = "delete", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public @ResponseBody UserResponse delete() {
System.out.println("Delete");
UserResponse userResponse = new UserResponse();
userResponse.setSuccess(true);
userResponse.setVersionNumber("1.0");
return userResponse;
} }
When invoking /application/delete I get JSON returned. So I know my JacksonProcessor is configured correctly. The problem is in @RequestBody.
Where am I going wrong?
If I remove the headers in the code below I get a 415 error.
@RequestMapping(value = "save", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public @ResponseBody UserResponse save(@RequestBody User user) throws Exception {
UserResponse userResponse = new UserResponse();
System.out.println("UserId :" + " " + user.getUserId());
return userResponse;
}
I am almost close but help would be appreciated.
