Order.jsp

<form:form action="createOrder" method="Post" modelAttribute="order">
        <table>
            <tr>
                <th>
                    Order ID:
                </th>
                <td>
                    <form:input path="order.orderId"/>
                </td>
            </tr>

            <tr>
                <th>
                    Product Name: 
                </th>
                <td>
                    <form:input path="order.productName"/>
                </td>
            </tr>

            <tr>
                <td>
                    <input type="submit" value="Submit"/>
                </td>
            </tr> 

        </table>
    </form:form>

Order.java:

public class Order {

    private String orderId;
    private String productName;

    /**
     * 
     */
    public Order() {


    }

    public Order(String orderId, String productName) {
        super();
        this.orderId = orderId;
        this.productName = productName;
    }

    public String getOrderId() {
        return orderId;
    }

    public void setOrderId(String orderId) {
        this.orderId = orderId;
    }

    public String getProductName() {
        return productName;
    }

    public void setProductName(String productName) {
        this.productName = productName;
    }
}

OrderController.java:

@Controller
public class OrderController {

    private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(LoginController.class.getName());

    /**
     * 
     */
    public OrderController() {
        super();
    }

    @RequestMapping(value = "/createOrder", method=RequestMethod.POST)
    public String createOrder(@ModelAttribute("order")Order order, BindingResult result) {
        logger.log(Level.INFO, "Order ID: " + order.getOrderId());
        logger.log(Level.INFO, "Product Name: " + order.getProductName());

        // Implementation validator

        // Data Binding the form properties to Order field
        if (result.hasErrors()) {
            logger.log(Level.INFO, "Error in Binding Result");
        }

        return "/order";
    }
}

I get the Neither BindingResult nor plain target object for bean name order available. Is it i need to create a bean name order using GET and pass to the web first before POST back to server.

Please help.
Thanks.

The problem is in your JSP page.

You have used the field names wrongly in the path attribute of the input tag.

it should be like this.

 <form:input path="orderId"/> 

Hope this helps you.
Cheers.
