Question

Given this methodology of relative redirect to another controller:

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/someController")
public class MyController {
    @RequestMapping("/redirme")
    public String processForm(ModelMap model) {            
        return "redirect:/someController/somePage";
    }
}

How can I simulate that same relative redirect given that I’m within an interceptor?

public class MyInterceptor extends HandlerInterceptorAdapter {
    @Override
    public boolean preHandle(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, Object handler) throws Exception
    {
        response.sendRedirect("/someController/somePage");
        return false;
    }
}

Now with the interceptor, i will end up at application.com/someController/somePage when I really want to be at application.com/deployment/someController/somePage. Surely there must be a ‘spring’ solution for this?

Converting my comment to an answer –

Try using response.sendRedirect(request.getContextPath() + uri);
