Answer 1

Axtavt answer is correct.

This is how your resolver should look like (annotations based):

    @Bean
UrlBasedViewResolver resolver(){
    UrlBasedViewResolver resolver = new UrlBasedViewResolver();

    resolver.setPrefix("/views/");
    resolver.setSuffix(".jsp");
    resolver.setViewClass(JstlView.class);

    return resolver;
}

Obviously the name of your views directory should change based on your project.

Answer 2

Also note that redirect: and forward: prefixes are handled by UrlBasedViewResolver, so you need to have at least one subclass of UrlBasedViewResolver among your view resolvers, such as InternalResourceViewResolver.

Answer 3

Try this

HttpServletResponse response;       
response.sendRedirect(".../webpage.xhtml");

Answer 4

try to change this in your dispatcher-servlet.xml

<!-- Your View Resolver -->
<bean id="viewResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.ResourceBundleViewResolver">
    <property name="basenames" value="views" />
    <property name="order" value="1" />
</bean>   
<!-- UrlBasedViewResolver to Handle Redirects & Forward -->
<bean id="urlViewResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.UrlBasedViewResolver">
    <property name="viewClass" value="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles2.TilesView" />
    <property name="order" value="2" />
</bean>

Answer 5

It is possible to define a urlBasedViewResolver in your properties file:

excel.(class)=fi.utu.seurantaraporttisuodatin.service.Raportti  
index.(class)=org.springframework.web.servlet.view.urlBasedView  
index.viewClass =org.springframework.web.servlet.view.JstlView  
index.prefix = /WEB-INF/jsp/  
index.suffix =.jsp

Answer 6

i know this is late , but you should try redirecting to a path and not to a file ha ha
