I am new to Spring and am attempting an example but am puzzled as to why a MultiActionController constuctor is not getting called after a link is clicked from a index.html welcome file. There are no errors from the server just The requested resource is not available.

web.xml

index.html

Controller.java[code=java]package springmvc.presentation;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.web.portlet.ModelAndView;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.multiaction.MultiActionController;
import springmvc.application.inventory.DVDInfo;
import springmvc.application.inventory.InventoryManager;
import java.util.*;

@Controller
public class ViewDVDController extends MultiActionController{
  public ViewDVDController() {
	  System.out.println("In ViewDVDController()");  // not printing to console ?
  }
  
  @Autowired
  private InventoryManager manager;
  
  public InventoryManager getManager() {
	  return manager;
  }
  
  public void setManager(InventoryManager manager) {
	  this.manager = manager;
  }

@RequestMapping  (value="viewAll.view", method=RequestMethod.GET)
 public ModelAndView viewAll() throws Exception {
	 System.out.println("In ViewDVDController.viewAll()");
	 Collection<DVDInfo> all = manager.getAll();
	 return new ModelAndView("ListAll", "catalog", all);
 }
}

OK. Maybe your mapping String is incorrect. Do you need to put @RequestMapping(value="/viewAll.view", method=RequestMethod.GET)

or somtimes just @RequestMapping(value="/viewAll", method=RequestMethod.GET)

I always forget if you have to have the leading "/"

On another note. If you are new to Spring and using the latest version. Having your controllers extend or implement a Spring Controller class or interface is not a best practice. In today's Spring your Controllers should just be POJOs. This makes your Controller less coupled to Spring.

I attempted shifting to the @RequestMapping(value="/viewAll", method=RequestMethod.GET) without luck. Perhaps I am missing a file in the build path? Files are attached.

Did you also try

@RequestMapping(value="/viewAll.view", method=RequestMethod.GET)

It isn't an issue with jar files. If it was, you would get an exception.

Maybe there is an exception in your log file that isn't showing in your console.

Yep, tried that, still no luck. Where/what log file contains the errors?

Wow, the web.xml and dispatcher-servlet.xml were tucked in a folder under the WEB-INF so I moved directly under WEB-INF and all seems cool, for the time being. Still curious though on how to enable debug logging for solving errors.

Thanks

Ramesh. Please don't resurrect an old thread. And just to self promote your own site. That breaks JavaRanch policies.

Your mapping is not correct. I found simple good example here:

Spring MVC Hello World

Many simple example: Spring MVC
