Not finding request mapping within spring controller

Question

I'm just trying to create a simple spring web app. When I try to navigate to http://localhost:8080/spring-test/VIEW/VIEW I receive 404 error :

HTTP Status 404 - /spring-test/VIEW/VIEW

type Status report

message /spring-test/VIEW/VIEW

description The requested resource (/spring-test/VIEW/VIEW) is not available.

Is my below config correct ?

TestController.java :

package com;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.ui.ModelMap;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;


@Controller
@RequestMapping("VIEW")
public class TestController {

    @RequestMapping("VIEW")
    public String showView(final ModelMap argMap) {
        return "test.jsp";
    }

}

applicationContext.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd">


 <bean id="myController" class="com.TestController">

</bean>

 <bean id="portletModeHandlerMapping" class="org.springframework.web.portlet.handler.PortletModeHandlerMapping">
        <property name="order" value="0" />
        <property name="portletModeMap">
            <map>
                <entry key="view" value-ref="myController" />
            </map>
        </property>
    </bean>


</beans>

web.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<web-app
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"

I may be wrong but your serlvet mapping seems to redirect to your spring servlet if the URL ends with html. See if accessing /spring-test/VIEW/VIEW.html gets you the same error.

I needed to change servlet mapping to :

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>spring</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Kudos to spring MVC servlet mapping
