Question

I have a user controller. It has three methods for listing users, showing a user add page and saving a user. When the user is saved, it should redirect to the user listing page.

In my case when I try to do the redirect, I am getting the following error.

No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [/myApp/cases/cases] in DispatcherServlet

Below is my entire UserController.

@Controller

@RequestMapping("/users")

public class UserController extends BaseController {

    private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(userController.class);

    @RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView list() {
        logger.info(" [list] - showing user list.");
        ModelAndView mav = new ModelAndView("userList");
        mav.addObject("users", new ArrayList<User>());
        return mav;
    }

    @RequestMapping(value = "/new", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView form() {
        logger.info(" [form] - showing new user creation form.");
        ModelAndView mav = new ModelAndView("userForm");
        mav.addObject("user", new User());
        return mav;
    }

    @RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.POST)
    public String save(User user) {
        logger.info(" [save] - saving user.");

        return "redirect:/users";
    }
}

Am I doing the redirection proper way?

Add the context of DispatrcherServlet. For example, if URL pattern of dispatcher servlet (in web.xml) is ‘myApp’ then it should be: return "redirect:/myApp/users";
