Getting 404s when trying to map static resources

[laredotornado]

Hi,

I'm using Spring 3.0.5. I have a folder "static" with static assets at the root of my WAR file (at the same level as WEB-INF). I'm trying to map all requests of the form "/context-path/static/" to this directory, but not having success (getting 404s). Here is what I have ...

<beans xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
        xmlns:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
        xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
                            http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
                            http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc
                            http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc/spring-mvc-3.0.xsd">


        <mvc:resources mapping="/static/**" location="/static/"/>
        <mvc:annotation-driven/>

My logs show that the mapping is being found, but the file is not. Any ideas how I can troubleshoot this further? - Dave
