Can't setup basic spring application

[Abhilash]

I am setting an application in Spring framework. I have a file called include.jsp in homedir /WEB-INF/jsp/include.jsp. And in my index.jsp page i wrote the line
<%@ include file="/WEB-INF/jsp/include.jsp" %>
and index.jsp is in the home directory(springapp).
But when i gave the url "http//localhost:8080/springapp" in the browser i got jsp error
"/WEB-INF/jsp/include.jsp" not found
how can i include that page... Anybody plz help

Welcome to JavaRanch. We don't have many rules here, but we do have a naming policy which we strictly enforce. It appears possible that your chosen display name may be in violation of that policy. Please re-read the policy to see if this is the case and alter your display name accordingly. Thanks a lot and we look forward to seeing you around the Ranch.
