Here is the BaseController:
package com.audiClave.controllers;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
@Controller
public class BaseController {
@RequestMapping(value = "/index.html")
public ModelAndView home() {
System.out.println("BaseController: Passing through...");
return new ModelAndView("home");
// return "WEB-INF/views/home.jsp";
}
}
I call the tomcat service with:
http://localhost:8080/audiClave/index.html
and this is from the console:
BaseController: Passing through...
appears in the console window but nothing else. Content returned states:
description The requested resource () is not available.
Contents of /WEB-INF/views/home.jsp

<h1>Hello world from audiClave!</h1>
</body>
</html>
The problem isn’t in the file though because if I return
return new ModelAndView("xxxx");
It is the same result.
It does seem to be library related as it was working before I started changing the libraries (relating to JSTL and JSP) in my project. I don’t know the sequence of the libraries I have changed. I must have ended up with something incompatible with tomcat 7.
There is nothing in the tomcat log that indicates a problem. This is the startup log:

As per Biju’s recommendation here is the log from after baseController returns the modelAndView:
2011-06-01 11:32:59,218 ["http-bio-8080"-exec-11] DEBUG org.springframework.beans.factory.support.DefaultListableBeanFactory - Invoking afterPropertiesSet() on bean with name 'home'

2011-06-01 11:32:59,218 ["http-bio-8080"-exec-11] DEBUG org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet - Successfully completed request
The problem is that home.jsp does not exist in the
directory even though in eclipse it is showing. Wasn’t able to see that until I got the logging working properly.
Stopping the server, cleaning, and then republishing seems to have fixed it.
