I am currently working on my blog in Spring framework. I am implementing the Spring Security for login purpose. Everything works as expected until I submit the login credentials which is always returning 404 code.
Here is my web.xml code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app id="WebApp_ID" version="2.4"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"

<servlet-mapping>

</servlet-mapping>
Here is my spring security code:
<bean id="dataSource"
class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
<property name="driverClassName" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"/>
<property name="url" value="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/avispring"/>
<property name="username" value="root"/>
<property name="password" value=""/>
</bean>
<security:debug/>
<security:http auto-config="true">
<security:intercept-url pattern="/admin/**" access="hasRole('ROLE_ADMIN')"/>
<security:intercept-url pattern="/j_spring_security_check" access="permitAll"/>
<security:form-login
login-page="/login.html"
authentication-failure-url="/login?login_error=1"
default-target-url="/admin/home.html"/>
</security:http>
<security:authentication-manager>
<security:authentication-provider>
<security:jdbc-user-service
data-source-ref="dataSource"
users-by-username-query="select USERNAME,PASSWORD,ENABLED from USER_AUTHENTICATION where USERNAME=?"
authorities-by-username-query="select u1.USERNAME,u2.ROLE from USER_AUTHENTICATION u1,USER_AUTHORIZATION u2 where u1.USER_ID=u2.USER_ID and u1.USERNAME=?"/>
</security:authentication-provider>
</security:authentication-manager>
part of my login.jsp code is
<form action="<c:url value="/login"/>" method="post">
<div class="form-group has-feedback">
<input type="email" class="form-control" placeholder="Email" name="username">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-envelope form-control-feedback"></span>
</div>
<div class="form-group has-feedback">
<input type="password" class="form-control" placeholder="Password" name="password">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-lock form-control-feedback"></span>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-8">
<div class="checkbox icheck">
<label>
<input type="checkbox"> Remember Me
</label>
</div>
</div><!-- /.col -->
<div class="col-xs-4">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-block btn-flat" name="submit">Sign In</button>
</div><!-- /.col -->
</div>
</form>
and the console output is
Oct 16, 2015 1:06:03 AM org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet noHandlerFound
WARNING: No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [/avispring/login] in DispatcherServlet with name 'spring'
Note:
- I am using spring 4.2.1 and spring security 4.0.2
- Most of the forums are pointing to the context path i.e [appname/login] or [appname/j_spring_security_check] and I think mine is ok regarding it
Please help…
UPDATE:
when I used log4j, the debug output at the time of form submission is as follows:

Ok that was so frustrating and I have found my answer by hit and trial. To all others who are facing my problem I am posting my solution. I had to change only one line in my web.xml file. I had to replace this code
with this code
and I don't even need this line in spring-security.xml file
Hope that might help somebody. Happy coding...
