I'm trying to run my web application using Spring, Hibernate and Apache Tiles. It seems the code has no errors, but I'm just getting a 404 page.

Before adding all the hibernate stuff I tried the web app and it worked just great. But what's a webapp without a database?
I already spent hours on this and just can't find the problem...
UPDATE
Controller:
package com.example.controller;
import java.util.Map;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
@Controller
@RequestMapping("/")
public class BlogController {
@RequestMapping("/index.html")
public String posts(Map<String, Object> map) {
return "posts";
}
}
Narendra Kumar Achari
Try sending ModelAndView instead of String Or
You can send map object as parameter to ModelandView method(which is already overloaded)
@Controller
@RequestMapping("/")
public class BlogController {
@RequestMapping("/index.html")
public ModelAndView posts(Map<String, Object> map) {
return new ModelAndView("/index.jsp", "status", status);
}
}
I solved it.
There are two contexts: root (application wide) and servlet context
I defined viewResolver, tilesConfigurer, tx:annotation-driven and mvc:annotation-driven in the root context.
Moving it to the servlet context solved the problem.
UPDATED
I've moved viewResolver, tilesConfigurer, tx:annotation-driven and mvc:annotation-driven definitions from applicationContext.xml to contextConfigLocation (dispatcher-servlet.xml)
