Unsupported view type /WEB-INF/index.xhtml only types supported by this FlowViewResolver implementation are [.jsp] and [.jspx]

We have a problem with Spring-webflow configuration and view redirection.

Upon login, you should enter the configured home page, but you are left in a redirect loop to the error page.

Checking the log traces, it is verified that when you submit in the login, it redirects to the corresponding view, but an error occurs with the spring component that controls the views and that only allows jsp and jspx.

We are working with Spring-webflow 2.4.1, Spring-mvc 3.1.4, jsf 2.2 and primefaces 4.0.

We have been verifying the different ways of how to do it with xml since it is an old application and what we are doing is refactoring from ant to maven in order to proceed with the modifications that are required.

The error that is generated is the following:

11:15:32,603 INFO [stdout] (http-localhost/127.0.0.1:8080-5) 10-06-2020 11:15:32,602 [DEBUG] [http-localhost/127.0.0.1:8080-5] [org.springframework.webflow.engine.impl.FlowExecutionImpl] Attempting to handle [org.springframework.webflow.execution.FlowExecutionException: Exception thrown in state 'index' of flow 'start-flow'] with root cause [java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unsupported view type /WEB-INF/index.xhtml only types supported by this FlowViewResolver implementation are [.jsp] and [.jspx]] 11:15:32,603 ERROR [com.axa.ca.caem.web.core.exception.CaemExceptionHandler] (http-localhost/127.0.0.1:8080-5) Handling exception 11:15:32,603 INFO [stdout] (http-localhost/127.0.0.1:8080-5) 10-06-2020 11:15:32,603 [ERROR] [http-localhost/127.0.0.1:8080-5] [com.axa.ca.caem.web.core.exception.CaemExceptionHandler] Handling exception 11:15:32,604 ERROR [com.axa.ca.caem.web.core.exception.CaemExceptionHandler] (http-localhost/127.0.0.1:8080-5) Unknown error captured in CaemExceptionHandler: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unsupported view type /WEB-INF/index.xhtml only types supported by this FlowViewResolver implementation are [.jsp] and [.jspx] at org.springframework.webflow.mvc.builder.FlowResourceFlowViewResolver.getViewInternal(FlowResourceFlowViewResolver.java:94) [spring-webflow-2.4.1.RELEASE.jar:2.4.1.RELEASE]
