Hi I am getting Http status 404 when I am trying to access an end point which should return me a view mapped with the end point.My application is starting fine as my health-check end point is working fine. Please find my code snippets below: I have already tried all possible suggestions on similar issues that I found on Stackoverflow but none of them seems to work.
My end point looks like this - http://localhost:8080/web/views/home, this should return the home.jsp but is returning http status 404.
Health check end point - http://localhost:8080/web/admin/health-check

@RestController
public class HealthCheckController {
/**

@RequestMapping( "admin/health-check" )
public String healthCheck()

return "OK";
}
