JSP in /WEB-INF returns “HTTP Status 404 The requested resource is not available”

I created a JSP file.

    <         


        

Answer 1

In my spring boot web application with JSP it didn't worked until I have added this dependency

    
        org.apache.tomcat.embed
        tomcat-embed-jasper
        provided
    

even after configuring view resolver

spring.mvc.view.prefix: /WEB-INF/views/ 
spring.mvc.view.suffix: .jsp

If you find why this worked please comment.
