noHandlerFound No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [..]

Question

I am trying out a very simple helloworld kind RestFul webservice in the Spring environment and I have been getting "org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet noHandlerFound No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [..] in DispatcherServlet with name ..". I have tried various things but nothing is working. So far this is what I have :

web.xml

<listener>
        <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
</listener>

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>spitter</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>spitter</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/testWs/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

<context-param>
    <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
    <param-value>/WEB-INF/spitter-servlet.xml</param-value>
</context-param>

spitter-servlet.xml

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
        xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xmlns:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
        xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
        xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc-3.0.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd">

        <mvc:annotation-driven />

        <context:component-scan base-package="org.resttest.bso" />

        <bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
            <property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/views/" />
            <property name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
        </bean>

</beans>

And the Controller class;

package org.resttest.bso;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ResponseBody;
import org.springframework.ui.ModelMap;

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/partners")
public class PartnerController {

public PartnerController(){
    System.out.println("******* From the constructor ***** " );
}

@RequestMapping("method=RequestMethod.GET")
public String getPartner(ModelMap model){
    try{
        model.addAttribute("message", "Spring 3 MVC Hello World");
        System.out.println("******* Test message " );
    }catch(Exception ex){
        System.out.println("******* Exception thrown ... " + ex.getMessage());
    }
    return "test";
}
}

And in WEB-INF/views/test.jsp

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"><%@page
language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<html>
<head>
    <title>test</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<h1>Message : ${message}</h1>   
</body>
</html>

When the server starts I also do see this : [11/28/12 9:24:02:803 EST] 00000013 DefaultAnnota I org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.AbstractUrlHandlerMapping registerHandler Mapped URL path [/partners/method=RequestMethod.GET] onto handler 'partnerController'

But when I try to access using url : localhost:9080/contextRoot/testWs/partners/ I get the error : [11/28/12 9:31:07:034 EST] 00000044 PageNotFound W org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet noHandlerFound No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [/contextRoot/testWs/partners/] in DispatcherServlet with name 'spitter'

Any help is highly appreciated. I have tried several changes based on suggestions on the forums, but nothing seems to work.

Thanks

This question is not a duplicate since the issue was quotes around "method=RequestMethod.GET". — user1860447, Jan 11 '17 at 00:19

You have @RequestMapping("method=RequestMethod.GET")

remove the quotes

@RequestMapping(method=RequestMethod.GET)

And it should work.

Remember things while server spring MVC project doing

index.jsp(firslt starting page) should be under WebConent. not under WEB-INF not under your jsp folder(your jsp pages folder).
Mapping : url pattern is like, if it is in web.xml like /
then "/" this symbol comes at only at in controller class annotation of request mappin("/**"). no where comes. especially in request at jsp page. there is request is going to that annatation.
add all jars, like ojdbc14.jar for db.
autowiring is main, how bean id name in configuration file it should same as it is in your classes.
