I’m developing Spring MVC, on Apache 7.xx application and have setup everything without any errors.
I have a my application map my dispatcher servlet to HomeController , which serves the view “home/View” which is also working.
I want to implement UserAccount & Registeration use case before wiring & itegrating with spring security.
However my registration form (Register.jsp) on form submit ( or action="UserRegisteration/RegisterForm" method="POST">) gives 404 error rather than serving a view via (for testing I have UserRegisterationController serve Register.jsp again)
Register.jsp (form snippet)
<form action="/UserRegisteration/RegisterForm" method="POST">
<table width="283" border="1">
<tr>
<td width="123"><label for="firstname">First Name</label></td>
<td width="144"><input type="text" name="firstname" id="firstname"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="lastname">Last Name</label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="lastname" id="lastname"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="email">Email</label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="email" id="email"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="phonecontact1">Phone Contact 1</label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="phonecontact1" id="phonecontact1"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="phonecontact2">Phone Contact 2</label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="phonecontact2" id="phonecontact2"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="address1">Address 1</label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="address1" id="address1"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="address2">Address 2</label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="address2" id="address2"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="industry ">Industry </label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="industry " id="industry "></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="password">Enter Desired Password</label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="password" id="password"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input type="reset" name="clear " id="clear " value="Clear Fields"></td>
<td><input type="submit" name="register" id="register" value="Register"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
I have the following method createUserAccountRegisteration()mapped to
@RequestMapping(value="/RegisterForm", method=RequestMethod.POST) see below:
(UserRegisterationController.java)
@Controller
@RequestMapping("/UserRegisteration")
public class UserRegisterationController {
@Autowired
private RegisterationService registerationService;
@Autowired
private UserAccountService userAccountService;
@Autowired
private PasswordService passwordService;
public UserRegisterationController() {
}
public UserRegisterationController(RegisterationService registerationService, UserAccountService userAccountService, PasswordService password) {
this.registerationService = registerationService;
this.userAccountService = userAccountService;
this.passwordService = password;
}
//if checked on register link , forward to registeration page
@RequestMapping(value="/RegisterForm", method=RequestMethod.GET)
public String serveRegisterationView()
{
return "UserAccount/Register";
}
@RequestMapping(value="/RegisterForm", method=RequestMethod.POST)
public String createUserAccountRegisteration()
{
//if submited registeration
//check for previous registeration
//if registered prompt , forward to sign in
//else create registeration , and user account , and password , forward to main user page
return "UserAccount/Register";
}
}

Result of Register.jsp form sumbmit:
Browser URL: (http://localhost:8084/UserRegisteration/RegisterForm)
HTTP Status 404 - /UserRegisteration/RegisterForm
type Status report
message /UserRegisteration/RegisterForm
description The requested resource (/UserRegisteration/RegisterForm) is not available.
Apache Tomcat/7.0.22
What i noticed is the browser url is missing my applications context (/cmgr) the correct url should be "http://localhost:8084/cmgr/UserRegisteration/RegisterForm"
