Spring,Request method 'POST' not supported [closed]

Question

I had csrf enabled in my sprint security xml file, so I just added one line in the form:

<input type="hidden" name="${_csrf.parameterName}" value="${_csrf.token}" /> 

This way I was able to submit the form having the model attribute.

Your user.jsp:

 <form:form action="profile/proffesional" modelAttribute="PROFESSIONAL">
     ---
     ---
    </form:form>

In your controller class:

(make it as a meaning full method name..Hear i think you are insert record in DB.)

@RequestMapping(value = "proffessional", method = RequestMethod.POST)
    public @ResponseBody
    String proffessionalDetails(
            @ModelAttribute UserProfessionalForm professionalForm,
            BindingResult result, Model model) {

        UserProfileVO userProfileVO = new UserProfileVO();

        userProfileVO.setUser(sessionData.getUser());
        userService.saveUserProfile(userProfileVO);
        model.addAttribute("PROFESSIONAL", professionalForm);

        return "Your Professional Details Updated";

    }

In Jsp:

action="profile/proffiesional"

In Controller

@RequestMapping(value = "proffessional", method = RequestMethod.POST)

Spelling MisMatch !

You are missimg @ModelAttribute annotation for UserProfessionalForm professionalForm parameter in forgotPassword method.

@RequestMapping(value = "proffessional", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public @ResponseBody
String forgotPassword(@ModelAttribute UserProfessionalForm professionalForm,
        BindingResult result, Model model) {

    UserProfileVO userProfileVO = new UserProfileVO();
    userProfileVO.setUser(sessionData.getUser());
    userService.saveUserProfile(userProfileVO);
    model.addAttribute("professional", professionalForm);
    return "Your Professional Details Updated";
}

Try this

@RequestMapping(value = "proffessional", method = RequestMethod.POST)
    public @ResponseBody
    String forgotPassword(@ModelAttribute("PROFESSIONAL") UserProfessionalForm professionalForm,
            BindingResult result, Model model) {

        UserProfileVO userProfileVO = new UserProfileVO();
        userProfileVO.setUser(sessionData.getUser());
        userService.saveUserProfile(userProfileVO);
        model.addAttribute("professional", professionalForm);
        return "Your Professional Details Updated";
    }

For information i removed the action attribute and i got this error when i call an ajax post..Even though my action attribute in the form looks like this action="javascript://;"

I thought I had it from the ajax call and serializing the form but I added the dummy action attribute to the form back again and it worked.
