Spring 3 -- images not appearing in JSP

Question

This is probably some simple little thing I'm doing wrong, but I'll ask anyway. I have several images that aren't showing up in my JSP. My images are stored at WEB-INF/pages/images. Here is a sample of how I'm referring to them in my JSP.

<img src="images/guestbook.jpg" alt="Guest Book" />

I'm also getting this error in my console.

WARNING: No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [/ghs1986/images/guestbook.jpg] in DispatcherServlet with name 'ghs1986'

In your spring-config.xml, add:

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

This removed the warning, but there are still no images in my browser screen. – Apr 21 '13 at 05:47
I changed the location to WEB-INF/pages/images/, and that was what finally worked. Thanks to everyone for your help. – Apr 21 '13 at 21:47

Check your image folder path & try using application context while pointing to your images. Try using ${pageContext.request.contextPath}.

for e.g

<img src="${pageContext.request.contextPath}/images/guestbook.jpg" alt="Guest Book" />

Change this as per your path / needs.
