Spring 4.1 configuration for static content - java

I am trying to modify Mkyong's Spring 3 MVC and JSON example (http://www.mkyong.com/spring-mvc/spring-3-mvc-and-json-example/) to work with Spring 4.1.x and allow reaching html files under webapp directory. For 4.0.x <mvc:resources mapping="/*" location="/WEB-INF" /> with servlet-mapping did the trick, but it doesn't work in 4.1.x; http://localhost:8080/SpringMVCRest/index.html gives 404 error. How can I configure it?

If your HTML files are in the root of the webapp directory, they aren't under WEB-INF. So
<mvc:resources mapping="/*" location="/WEB-INF" />
should be
<mvc:resources mapping="/*" location="/" />

please help me to understand what is wrong

You may need to add the spring-beans dependency to your maven.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-beans</artifactId>
<version>4.1.8.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

You need to specify the version of Spring you are using in your servlet config - in your case spring-beans-4.1.xsd:
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-4.1.xsd
...

Can you please try with the below servlet xml? In this I removed the closing tags, instead used them as <context:annotation-config /> and <context:component-scan />. Also please provide your full package name in component-scan
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Web application using Spring and maven doesn't work

I am new using Spring and I tried to create a project that prints hello when I put the following path in the browser: http://localhost:8080/FirstApp/hello but it doesn't work. The browser shows this:

I don't know what I have wrong. I just want to "call" the java function and show it in the path http://localhost:8080/FirstApp/hello.
Thank you in advance.

I believe your servlet-mapping configuration is not correct. Try changing it to the following
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>spring</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Also, looking at
<bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
<property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/" />
<property name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
</bean>
your jsp directory should be under /WEB-INF/.
Then try to access http://localhost:8080/FirstApp/hello

In your pom.xml you are using Spring 4.2.4.RELEASE as:
<properties>
<spring.version>4.2.4.RELEASE</spring.version>
<jdk.version>1.8</jdk.version>

And in your springrest-servlet.xml you are referring to Spring 3.x DTD.

Spring MVC mapping with path variable

I have a problem in a big application with rich context, and I spent time to understand why it isn't mapped. So I tried to create simple project and face the same issue :(

}
#RequestMapping(method = GET, value = "/clear")
public Map<String, Object> printWelcome() {
Map<String, Object> model = new HashMap<>();
model.put("item", null);
return model;
}
}
Tests:
GET http://localhost:8080/testMvc/items/clear => {"item":null}
GET http://localhost:8080/testMvc/items/1/item => 404 Not Found
What is wrong?

Replace value = "/${id}/item") into value ="/{id}/item". This is not EL expression , so no $ is needed here.
If what you want is a Regrex expression for Path variable, also put it into the {}. The syntax is {varName:regex} where the first part defines the variable name and the second - the regular expression .
Check Spring MVC Reference for more details of URI Template Patterns.
