Can't load a very simple JSP page with spring-boot, getting 404 Not Found.
src/main/java/SampleWebJspApplication.java
@Configuration
@EnableAutoConfiguration
@ComponentScan
public class SampleWebJspApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
SpringApplication.run(SampleWebJspApplication.class, args);
}
}
src/main/java/WebController.java
@Controller
public class WebController {
@RequestMapping("/")
public String welcome() {
return "welcome";
}
}
src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/jsp/welcome.jsp
<!DOCTYPE html>
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"%>
<html lang="en">
<body>
<h1>Hello.</h1>
</body>
</html>
Getting 404 even though debugger shows that "welcome" is being returned from the Controller RequestMapping.
Whitelabel Error Page
This application has no explicit mapping for /error, so you are seeing this as a fallback.
Sat Mar 07 19:35:15 EST 2015 There was an unexpected error (type=Not Found, status=404).
I have already tried many solutions, but couldn't find a working one.
If you are using Intellij IDEA and reading this while you are pulling your hair: do not try to run Spring Boot application(with dynamic .jsp views) with the IDE's run ▶︎ button.
$ cd {your_project_folder_path}
$ ls //Check if you are in the same place with the pom.xml
and then type
$ mvn spring-boot:run
Now your application is served at localhost:8080.
