Simple Project in Spring MVC

Question

I'm trying to build a simple spring MVC project.

I created web application project then added spring and commons-logging library.

and this web.xml file

<web-app id="WebApp_ID" version="2.4"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee 
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd">

<display-name>Spring MVC Application</display-name>

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

<servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>HelloWeb</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

</web-app>

and this is HelloWeb-servlet.xml

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


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

</beans>

then I created java class (HelloContoller.java) in com.tutorialspoint package

package com.tutorialspoint;

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

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/hello")
public class HelloController{

@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String printHello(ModelMap model) {
   model.addAttribute("message", "Hello Spring MVC Framework!");

  return "hello";
 }

}

then I created JSP page in WEB-INF/JSP/hello.jsp

<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" %>
<html>
 <head>
  <title>Hello World</title>
 </head>
 <body>
   <h2>${message}</h2>
 </body>
</html>

I'm working on server glassfish, and when I run the project it gave me this error

HTTP Status 404 - Not Found

type Status report

messageNot Found

descriptionThe requested resource is not available.

GlassFish Server Open Source Edition 4.1

and the glassfish server give me this warning

Warning:   No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [/TestMVC4] in DispatcherServlet with name 'HelloWeb'

I saw this question No mapping found for HTTP request with URI.... in DispatcherServlet with name

and when I added the line to HelloWeb-servlet.xml

it gave me these errors

your issue is that you're missing the *annotation-driven* element in your config, check here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28411049/route-mapping-wont-work/28411313#28411313 — Master Slave, Feb 10 '15 at 13:03

I think you have to tell spring where your configuration file is, so add following lines to your web.xml file:

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

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

Then you have to register your Controller in spring. Add following to your spring configuration file (HelloWeb-servlet.xml):

<!-- Register the bean -->
<bean class="com.tutorialspoint.HelloController" />

In the code you gave /TestMVC is not defined any where.Instead you have given RequestMapping for /hello .So change your url suffix to /hello and try.Then you will not get exception.

Your getting exception since you have not given RequestMapping path for /TestMVC.

And along with that you need to put below annotation and their namespaces.

    <context:component-scan base-package="XXXXXXXXXXX" />

    <mvc:annotation-driven />
