Problem setting up Spring

[mt1]

I'm trying to move all my jsps into a folder under /WebContents/view but I keep getting a 404. Going to http://localhost:8080/test-app/ doesn't find my index.jsp under the view folder, but is ok in the WebContent folder. Why might this be? At the moment, I have to use http://localhost:8080/test-app/view/index.jsp to get to index page...

I'm using Eclipse with Tomcat v7 integration.

Also, should I need a controller? I wrote it because i had the view folder under WEB-INF previously but apparently folders under WEB-INF are protected, but can be accessed by code, but I didn't manage.

IndexController

package controller;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;

@Controller
public class IndexController {

    @RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public final String index() {
        return "index";
    }

}

First thing first:
When you go to http://localhost:8080/ do you get 404 error?

I get the Tomcat management page.

Cool.
I'm guessing the Web-Content folder was created when you created the project from eclipse wizard.
Is that correct?
In most Spring examples I saw, it's actually the same as WEB-INF folder.
Try to put all the content you have in Web-Content in WEB-INF.
Do you still get an error?

Yeah the WebContent folder was created by default.

Still get same error...

It seems to not work with projects like from this tutorial either...
