Spring mvc. Unable to render parameter - java

I'm pretty new in spring mvc and I'm trying to write simple helloworld with jsp by different chunks of tutorials. Jsp code:
<%# page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello, ${name}</h1>
</body>
</html>
Controller code:
#Controller
public class Main {
#RequestMapping("/hello")
public ModelAndView hello(#RequestParam(value = "name", defaultValue = "moses") String name) {
ModelAndView mv = new ModelAndView("MyView");
mv.addObject("name", name);
return mv;
}
}
Dispatcher-servlet.xml:
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-4.0.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-4.0.xsd">
<context:component-scan base-package="com.stax.controllers"/>
<bean class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
<property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/views/"/>
<property name="suffix" value=".jsp"/>
</bean>
When I'm typing ${na in jsp my Idea sees this parameter so I assume that I do it correct. And when I run this app, everything works except that parameters passed to jsp are not rendered. And instead of "Hello, Moses" I receive "Hello, ${name}". What am I doing wrong? If you need some more details, please, tell me.
Also my pom:

You need to specify version 2.5 or version 3.0 in web.xml for EL to be activated by default.
As recommended by #chrylis you should checkout Thymeleaf if you are starting a new project.
It's a huge improvement over JSP.
Another suggestion would be to check out Spring Boot since it vastly simplifies the Spring configuration.

I try to run in Tomcat server in Intellij , And It give me 404 error like this
Error Image
Thank you for helping me fix this

Tomcat 10 does not work with Spring 5 due to the fact that Tomcat 10 is working with jakarta packages, which were renamed from javax.
Spring 5 does not work with jakarta packages, Spring 6 will support that.
So with that in mind:
Spring 5 + Tomcat 9
Spring 6 + Tomcat 10
Also from the picture that you provided your url should be
localhost:8080/spring_war_exploaded/hello
not
localhost:8080/hello
To be sure which URL can be you can go to your Tomcat configuration > Edit > and check "After Launch" and select Google Chrome for an example, that will launch the app with the correct URL.
"Why _war_exploded"
That is mainly how IntelliJ likes to call artifact when creating Artifact > Web Exploaded, so if it is spring it will add _war_exploded, it is a default setting

The directory webapp should be inside main, not in the same parent directory.
As per convention, we place our JSP files in the ${project.basedir}/main/webapp/WEB-INF/jsp/ directory.
https://www.baeldung.com/spring-boot-jsp#view-resolver-configuration

Try to add this dependency first. It will automatically configure your web application and DispatcherServlet. You do not need your web.xml file anymore. Also, you can delete your webapp package. Everything will be done by Spring Boot.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
<version>2.7.0</version>
</dependency>
Then, create a class annotated with #SpringBootApplication. It will start your application, and your #RestController class will be detected and scanned.
#SpringBootApplication
public class RunApp {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(RunApp.class, args);
}
}
Also, you do not need your applicationContext.xml file anymore. Spring Boot takes responsibility for this. Spring Boot creates its own ApplicationContext and contains all the controllers and other beans.
Here, you can learn everything in more detail: https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/htmlsingle/
Good luck!

I am learning spring using tutorials and I am stuck. I am not able to solve the problem and getting 404 error in browser

I have been facing this issue with past few days but still not able to solve this issue. I have read all the previous answers in stack overflow. I am getting 404 file not found in browser and WARNING: No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [/chaljayrr/add] in DispatcherServlet with name 'firstOne' in console.

The url mentioned in RequestMapping is /add..try using /add from browser / REST client. Also, in your controller method just return "display".
Since you have configured a bean of InternalResourceViewResolver, it will automatically figure out the path where the jsp is located -in your case /WEB-INF/display.jsp.

noHandlerFound in Spring small application ? Don't know why

I have created one small basic demo application and trying to print "I am here" on the console through spring MVC application but I have no clue why it is failing almost spend 2 hours on it but luck.

I have google a lot and tried some answer (added spring-aop, etc...) but they didn't work. I have no idea what I have to do to fix this.

As the error message java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/aop/TargetSource told you, you miss spring-aop in your classpath. Add it as a dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-aop</artifactId>
<version><your-spring-version></version>
</dependency>

When a library or class is present in compilation-time but not in run-time cause a NoClassDefFoundError. Witch IDE are you using? check in target directory (source compiled) if exits a lib sub directory and contain spring-oap dependency, if you are using intellij idea check if the dependency are added in the war file.
relative path
target/your-project/WEB-INF/lib
check if contains dependencies

After searching for
nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/aop/TargetSource
I found Got java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError while learning Spring framework
Try adding
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-aop</artifactId>
<version>4.2.1.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
to your pom.xml

<servlet>

spring mvc 3.0 small web application not quite working

i'm creating a very simple (hello World quality) web application using spring mvc 3.0. when deploying the application on tomcat 6.0.26 and i try to open

i get 404, resource /protoweb/WEB-INF/jsp/helloWorld.jsp is not available.
The funny thing is that there IS a helloWorld.jsp in there.

my very simple controller:
package com.mine.web.controllers;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
#Controller
public class BasicController {
#RequestMapping(value = "/helloWorld")
public ModelAndView helloWorld() {
ModelAndView mav = new ModelAndView();
mav.setViewName("helloWorld");
mav.addObject("message", "Hello some basic message for u");
return mav;
}
}
and my webapp/jsp/helloWorld.jsp

also, it might be helpful to post my pom.xml

It's hard to tell without a proper directory listing, but your source tree should be:
pom.xml
src
/main
/java # all your java sources
/webapp # stuff for the web app
/WEB-INF
/jsp/helloWorld.jsp
