Spring Controller accepts duplicate requests

Question

Whenever I send request to the server it takes duplicate entry in url.

For detailed description please see below example.

 @Controller
 @RequestMapping("v")
 public class ControllerDemo{

  @RequestMapping("test")
  public String view()
 {
    return "index.jsp";
 }

@RequestMapping("view")
public String view()
{
   return "login.jsp";
}
   }

First request to Url: Https:localhost:8080/v/test When I go for a different request from test.jsp then it executes the following pattern Https:localhost:8080/v/v/view

In Test.jsp

    <form action="v/view">
       //Some data and submit
    </form>

It will send the request in url: https:localhost:8080/v/v/view instead of localhost:8080/v/view

Please let me know if you need to any other info or project configuration.

Just from the question itself it appears that the action tag's value is being appended to the path of the current page, so https:localhost:8080/v + v/view = https:localhost:8080/v/v/view.

Solution: change to just <form action="view">

This is backed up by the fact that action="" points to the current page.

Thank you, I was messed up with this. What if we want to go for different request so that it don't append the existing link, creating a new request like from localhost:8080/v/view to localhost:8080/user/my_account. Sometimes minor mistakes can mess you up LOL – Amit Mishra Nov 19 '19 at 13:32
