HTTP Status 404 - The requested resource is not available.

[suraj malla]

Following are the details of my Spring-MVC Application. The application compiled properly.While running the application with the URL http://localhost:8080/FirstSpringMVC/studentAdmissionForm.html , I am getting an error as shown in the below Screenshot 1. I am confused of why it is expecting studentAdmissionForm.jsp when I am passing LoginForm.jsp in the model.I tried with various changes following some blogs but still not able to.Please have a look at other screenshots too for my complete code.


Please help me in resolving this issue.

Even I am new to spring. I am just trying to understand the problem.

@RequestMapping(value="/studentAdmissionForm.html",method=RequestMethod.GET)
public ModelAndView getAdmissionForm(){
ModelAndView model = new ModelAndView("LoginForm");
//model.addObject("name","name");

You say that LoginForm only should be called since you have created ModelAndView("LoginForm")

But as far as I understand, whatever you give in "action" in your jsp, only that will be executed. Your jsp says to call submitAdmissionForm.html.

<html>

<body>
<h1>Login Form</h1>
<form action="/FirstSpringMVC/submitAdmissionForm.html" method="post">
<div>

One more point, in jsp, you should have used <form:form> instead of <form> tag, right?

Kindly post solution, if you have found. It would be helpful for others.

Thanks for the reply @Vysh sri ...
I have been following Gontu Series tutorials for the past few days.As per the tutorial the gsp name provided in ModelAndView helps in forming the URL.Even I tried an example before and its working.For this second example i am facing this issue.
Also as you mentioned form:form tag,i tried it but it is giving me a warning as unknown tag..
Still this issue is not resolved..

This happens if your mapping is not correct in web.xml file. I was not able to compile and run all your code but point you the good tutorial to where you have many examples available on Spring MVC.

Sample Hello world example: Spring MVC Hello World

Please take look at: Spring tutorial

Finally I got the solution after a lot of struggle.The problem is with the import statement for ModelAndView in the controller..
I need to use import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView; but i used import org.springframework.web.portlet.ModelAndView;

Thanks for your interest in helping me.. @Vysh sri and @johnyy Doe
