Looks like DispatcherServlet is trying to process the request for apiForm.jsp, which suggests to me that your web.xml servlet-mapping is directing requests for that space to DispatcherServlet.

You might have something like this?

<servlet-mapping>
  <servlet>dispatcher</servlet>
  <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Try calling your controllers with a different extension (.do for example) and update the servlet-mapping to suit

 <servlet-mapping>
  <servlet>dispatcher</servlet>
  <url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

I think I read the entire internet to figure out how to get sitemesh to handle my html paths without extension   API paths without extension   I was wrapped up in a straight jacket figuring this out  every turn seemed to break something else   Then I finally came upon this post    lt servlet gt       lt servlet-name gt dispatcher lt  servlet-name gt       lt servlet-class gt org springframework web servlet DispatcherServlet lt  servlet-class gt       lt load-on-startup gt 1 lt  load-on-startup gt   lt  servlet gt   lt servlet gt       lt servlet-name gt jsp lt  servlet-name gt       lt servlet-class gt org apache jasper servlet JspServlet lt  servlet-class gt   lt  servlet gt    lt servlet-mapping gt       lt servlet-name gt dispatcher lt  servlet-name gt       lt url-pattern gt    lt  url-pattern gt   lt  servlet-mapping gt    lt servlet-mapping gt       lt servlet-name gt jsp lt  servlet-name gt       lt url-pattern gt  WEB-INF views   lt  url-pattern gt    lt  servlet-mapping gt    lt servlet-mapping gt       lt servlet-name gt jsp lt  servlet-name gt       lt url-pattern gt  WEB-INF decorators   lt  url-pattern gt   lt  servlet-mapping gt    Enter this in your dispatcher-servlet xml   lt mvc default-servlet-handler  gt

I have encountered this problem in Eclipse Luna EE  My solution was simply restart eclipse and it magically started loading servlet properly

Yes  I know I m late to this party but it might help others   The servlet container chooses the mapping based on the longest path that matches    So you can  put this mapping in for your JSPs and it will be chosen over the    mapping    lt servlet-mapping gt     lt servlet-name gt jsp lt  servlet-name gt     lt url-pattern gt  WEB-INF pages   lt  url-pattern gt    lt  servlet-mapping gt    Actually for Tomcat that s all you ll need since jsp is a servlet that exists out of the box   For other containers you either need to find out the name of the JSP servlet or add a servlet definition like    lt servlet gt     lt servlet-name gt jsp lt  servlet-name gt     lt servlet-class gt org apache jasper servlet JspServlet lt  servlet-class gt   lt  servlet gt

change the your servlet name dispatcher to any other name  because dispatcher is predefined name for spring3 spring4 versions    lt servlet gt       lt servlet-name gt ahok lt  servlet-name gt       lt servlet-class gt org springframework web servlet DispatcherServlet lt  servlet-class gt       lt load-on-startup gt 1 lt  load-on-startup gt   lt  servlet gt   lt servlet-mapping gt       lt servlet-name gt ashok lt  servlet-name gt       lt url-pattern gt   lt  url-pattern gt   lt  servlet-mapping gt

Unfortunately  this is a rather broad class error message   Yet another thing which could be going wrong is if you are missing some classes jars   For example  if you are missing the spring-expression jar file  the dispatch-servlet is not going to be able to locate your controller no matter how hard you try and how correct everything else is configured

This could also happen when your app doesn t actually compile  yet it s still launched in Tomcat  When I saw this happen  it wasn t compiling because the project had a  project specific  JDK specified  and the code was checked out on a machine that didn t have that specific JDK  Eclipse defaulted to a JRE instead  not a JDK  and then the app wasn t compiled   To fix it in our specific case  we just turned off  Project Specific Settings  here    Project   Properties   Java Compiler    Here s more detailed info on how to do this  https   stackoverflow com a 2540730 26510

Just add  lt mvc default-servlet-handler   gt  to your DispatcherServlet configuration and you are done

Solution that helped me is  do not map DispatcherServlet to     map it to    Final config is then    lt servlet gt       lt servlet-name gt dispatcher lt  servlet-name gt       lt servlet-class gt org springframework web servlet DispatcherServlet lt  servlet-class gt       lt init-param gt                   lt  init-param gt       lt load-on-startup gt 1 lt  load-on-startup gt   lt  servlet gt    lt servlet-mapping gt       lt servlet-name gt dispatcher lt  servlet-name gt       lt url-pattern gt   lt  url-pattern gt   lt  servlet-mapping gt

What you need is to have a controller that responds to the url first which then renders your jsp  See this link for a solution

User · Answer

you will get a No mapping found for HTTP request with URI error  if you scanned the wrong package   e g your controller is in my package abc but you mistakenly put   lt context component-scan base-package  my package efg     gt   or    ComponentScan  my package efg     which in the sense  your controller doesn t get scanned into the web application context  when request comes in not just url  but the entire class is not found

Simple check can be made  I am currently using Spring MVC architecture along with hibernate  I had missed writing  Controller annotations just above class name  This was causing the problem for me    Controller public class MyClass              Hope this simple check solves your problem

Same answer as Brad Parks    more text though  I had the exact same problem and tried the above solutions along with many others  all with negative results  I even started out with a new  fresh Dev env and simply installed a spring-mvc-template and tried to run it directly after install  should work  but failed for me   For me the problem was that I was using jdk1 6 in my project  but my selected execution environment in eclipse was jdk1 7  The solution was to change the project specific execution environment settings so that this project is set to jdk1 6  Right click project --  Properties --  Java Compiler --  Check  Enable project specific settings  if it s not already checked --  select the appropriate jdk  or add if it s not installed    I hope this can help someone and save that persons time  because I have spent the last few days looking for the answer on every corner of the Internet  I accidently stumbled upon it myself when I started to get desperate and look for the solution in areas where it  according to my brain  was less likely to be found      My 2 cents  Thanks   Edit1  Use project specific settings  Edit2  Just realized Brad Parks already answered this in this very thread  Well  at least I got the  Editor -badge out of this one  D

I had the same problem  Of course there was a little difference  The story was that when I was removing the below line    lt mvc resources mapping   resources     location  classpath  resources     gt    Everything was OK but in presence of that line the same error raise   After some trial and error I found I have to add the below line to my spring application context file    lt mvc annotation-driven   gt    Hope it helps
