Hi, I am a newbie for Spring MVC 3.0 and trying to write a sample webapp to get the feels of it. I am able to get url to invoke my associated controller, but not able to foward the request from which to my jsp resource as indicated by the output on the browser:
The requested resource (/Spring30HelloWorld/helloworldcontroller) is not available.
A word of suggestion on fixing the issue would be appreciated!! Please refer below for my code set up.
Thanks in advance!
