Answer 1

Add RedirectAttributes redirectAttributes to your @RequestMapping function arguments and set the attribute using:

redirectAttributes.addFlashAttribute("message", "whatever went wrong") ;
return "redirect:/path_to_your_view" ;

remember: This works hand-in-hand with Spring’s redirect: functionality.
