I'm new to Spring MVC and I'm trying to write a simple web app to get started with Spring.
Here's what I have:
web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
id="WebApp_ID" version="2.5">
<display-name>HatifimWeb</display-name>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>main</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>main</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
main-servlet.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p"
xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd">
<context:component-scan base-package="springapp.controller" />
<bean id="viewResolver"

<property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/jsps/" />
<property name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
</bean>
</beans>
LoginController.java
package springapp.controller;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
@Controller
public class LoginController {
@RequestMapping("/Login")
public ModelAndView handleRequest() throws Exception {
System.out.println("Login...");
return new ModelAndView("Login", "message", "test");
}
}
index.jsp

The index.jsp starts well, but when I click to navigate to the login page, I get 404. I'm using Tomcat 7. And I'm out of ideas, it looks like the DispatcherServlet is not being invoked for some reason.
What could be the problem?
Thanks in advance.
