I have created simple spring-boot application but for some reason the view can't be mapped and I am getting the following error:
o.s.web.servlet.PageNotFound - No mapping for GET /WEB-INF/views/welcome.jsp
Problem arises after this statement:
return "welcome";
this is pom.xml file:

My folder structure looks like this:
This is WelcomeController:
package com.example.demo.Controller;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.GetMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
@Controller
@RequestMapping("/")
public class WelcomeController {
@GetMapping("/")
public String welcome(){
return "welcome";
}
}
This is application.properties:
spring.mvc.view.prefix=/WEB-INF/views/
spring.mvc.view.suffix=.jsp
spring.mvc.static-path-pattern=/resources/**
server.port=8089
This is DemoApplication class:
package com.example.demo;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
@SpringBootApplication
public class DemoApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(DemoApplication.class, args);
}
}
This is welcome.jsp file:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
this is welcome page
this is welcome page
</body>
</html>

The same issue cropped up at my side as well, and managed to solve it in the following way. The controller is the same, and the same way I initialized the Application as well.
I use gradle, but the dependencies are the same in case of Maven.
dependencies {
compile group: 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-starter-web', version: '2.3.0.RELEASE'
compile group: 'org.apache.tomcat.embed', name: 'tomcat-embed-jasper', version: '9.0.35'
}
I use java config, which looks like:
@Configuration
@EnableWebMvc
@ComponentScan
public class WebConfig implements WebMvcConfigurer {
@Override
public void configureViewResolvers(ViewResolverRegistry registry) {
registry.jsp("/WEB-INF/views/", ".jsp");
}
@Override
public void configureDefaultServletHandling(DefaultServletHandlerConfigurer configurer) {
configurer.enable();
}
}
WEB-INF
WebConfig should implement WebMvcConfigurer interface.

Please refer to the official doc of SpringBoot - JSP Limitations part.

You should also add the following dependencies to your pom.xml
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-tomcat</artifactId>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.tomcat.embed</groupId>
<artifactId>tomcat-embed-jasper</artifactId>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>jstl</artifactId>
</dependency>
