I have deleted many jars, which I thought, are repetitive.
My question is whether all these jars are exactly enough or are there duplicates?
Please help, this 404 is killing me…
You have a lot of duplicated jars there:
I would make sure you only have one of each before continuing, work out which version you need and include that one.
If you are not sure how to do this, let us know how you are importing your dependencies.
It would also be helpful to see the stacktrace you are seeing and a simplified Spring context that causes the error.
If you look at this question: JasperException: absolute uri: http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core cannot be resolved
You need to make sure you have the right version of JSTL, maybe once you remove the duplicate JSTL it may fix that error.
