Spring MVC Web framework, I cannot call a method from my controller class

Question

I have a basic problem. I am a beginner in Spring MVC Web framework. I want to call a method from my controller class when I click the button in my jsp file. I have tried all possible solution but I cannot call it yet. Thanks for your helps. Here is my code

/*Controller*/
        enter code here

    /*
     * To change this template, choose Tools | Templates
     * and open the template in the editor.
     */
    package controller;

    import rest.Userdata;
    import java.util.Map;
    import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
    import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
    import org.springframework.validation.BindingResult;
    import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ModelAttribute;
    import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
    import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
    import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestParam;
    import service.UserService;

    /**
     *
     * @author simegra
     */
    @Controller
    public class UserController {

        @Autowired
        private UserService userService;

        @RequestMapping("/newUser")
        public String setupForm(Map<String, Object> map) {
            Userdata user = new Userdata();

            map.put("user", user);
            return "user";
        }

        @RequestMapping(value = "/success.htm", method = RequestMethod.POST)
        public String doActions(@ModelAttribute Userdata user, BindingResult result, @RequestParam String action, Map<String, Object> map) {
            //Userdata userResult=new Userdata();
            System.out.println("I AM CALLING");

             switch(action.toLowerCase()){
             case "signup":
             userService.add(user);
             userResult = user;
             break;
             case "edit":
             userService.edit(user);
             userResult = user;
             break;
             case "delete":
             userService.delete(user.getId());
             userResult = new Userdata();
             break;
             case "search":
             Userdata searchedUser = userService.getUser(user.getId());
             userResult = searchedUser!=null? searchedUser : new Userdata();
             break;
             }
             map.put("user", userResult);

            return "success";

        }
    }

For what urls is the dispatcher servlet configured to handle? — Kevin Bowersox

I think using "/user/success.htm" as your action URL for your "input" form would do the work as you configured ControllerClassNameHandlerMapping as your controller mapping handler.

Because when you are putting "/success.htm" it is actually getting mapped with one of your ParameterizableViewController, not with UserController's method (with /success.htm as the url mapping). Assuming that your DispatcherServlet is mapped with "/".

I didn't see any use of spring:url in your JSP. It is the classic way of composing url with Spring MVC, because it will automatically add the base url to your application. You didn't mention any mapping to your controller so it will be reached throw root url '/', and if you want to reach your method 'doActions()' you have to use :

<spring:url value="/success.htm" var="success"/>

and then :

<a href="${success}>toSuccess</a>

Also, you should use JSPX, not JSP page, it is the recommend way with Spring MVC.
