    Default Spring 3.2 -- 404 error calling a controller method from a link in a JSP

    I'm trying to use a link in my JSP to pass a parameter to a method in my Spring controller, but I get a 404 error. Here is the relevant part of my JSP code.

    <c:forEach var="bulletin" items="${bulletins}">
        <c:if test="${bulletin.approved}">
            <a href="/bulletin/${bulletin.id}" >${bulletin.name}
                -- ${bulletin.subject}</a>
            <br />
            <br />
        </c:if>
    </c:forEach>

    Here is the method in my controller.

    @RequestMapping(value = "/bulletin/{id}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView getSingleBulletin(@PathVariable("id") int id,
            Model model) {
        ModelAndView mav = new ModelAndView();
     
        try {
            Bulletin bulletin = bulletinDAO.getSingleBulletin(id);
            mav.setViewName("WEB-INF/jsp/ShowBulletin");
            if (bulletin != null) {
                ServletRequestAttributes attributes = (ServletRequestAttributes) RequestContextHolder
                        .currentRequestAttributes();
                HttpSession session = attributes.getRequest().getSession(true);
                session.setAttribute("bulletin", bulletin);
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println(e.getMessage());
            mav.setViewName("WEB-INF/jsp/FailurePage");
        }
     
        return mav;
    }

    Default Re: Spring 3.2 -- 404 error calling a controller method from a link in a JSP

    Are you able to make the part of the method you need into a static method? I'm pretty sure you can call static methods all you want from a JSP, but for instance methods you would need an instance of the controller.
    Writing code is your job, helping you fix and understand it is mine.
