Static Content with MVC

[Victor Osório]

I'm trying to create an example using MVC 1.0.

It is working for all views, but not for static content. I have a simple Hello World here https://github.com/vepo/java-mvc-hello-world

If I execute it, I get 404 on /assets/css/main.css

Is something missing?

Thanks,

Victor Osório

Hi Victor,

I had a look into your code and recognized that the context path for the asset is missing. Also, it's not recommended by the spec to map the application path to "/", as this may lead to unexpected behavior when forwards are handled by the server.

So to load the assets, please try to change your @ApplicationPath to something else than "/" and prefix the asset path with  #{request.contextPath} and your asset should be resolved.

Best regards,

Tobias
