Mapping Resources in dispatcher servlet (Resin Server)
Question
This is my dispacter-servlet.xml file. When i deploy the project on resin pro 4.0.36 it loads my index page and the content BUT FAILS to load css files and images stored under the staticresources folder
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

<context:component-scan base-package="com.dogears" />
<bean id="viewResolver"

<property name="prefix">
<value>/WEB-INF/pages/</value>
</property>
<property name="suffix">
<value>.jsp</value>
</property>
</bean>
<import resource="classpath:beans.xml"/>
<mvc:resources mapping="/resources/**" location="/staticresources/" />
<mvc:annotation-driven />
Please can anyone tell me how to mapp my static resources folder, so that whenever the request is of the patter /resources/* it redirects the request to the static resources folder. the staticresources folder is in MyspringProject/src/main/webapps directory .

I believe you need to map your staticresources directory as a root directory. In Eclipse that would be a "Source Folder" and in IntelliJ a "Resources Root".
Refer to the following help docs depending on your IDE:
IntelliJ: https://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/help/configuring-folders-within-a-content-root.html

Suppose your project directory structure is like
- src
- main
- webapp
- resources
- css
- abc.css
- images
- xyz.jpg
& your .html or .jsp pages are located in the directory as below
- webapp
- index.jsp
- pages
- welcome.jsp
then you can add link to your resources in index.jsp page with the URL BaseURL/index.jsp
<link href="resources/css/abc.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<body>
<img src="resources/images/xyz.jpg" alt="" style="width:100px;height:100px" />
</body>
& to welcome.jsp with URL BaseURL/pages/welcome.jsp as
<link href="../resources/css/abc.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<body>
<img src="../resources/images/xyz.jpg" alt="" style="width:100px;height:100px" />
</body>
Hope this helps you.

I finally found my solution. I had deployed my spring webapp in the webapps folder of the resin directory.
I realised that <mvc:resource /> mapping tag does not work when you have deployed your spring app on resin server instead of tomcat .
Hence i solved this by first creating a war file of my project and then extracted the war file on the desktop and later placed all the contents from the war file in the webapps/root (and not webapps folder) folder of resin directory. and then from my index page i used JSTL TAG to include the external stylesheet.
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<c:url value="/staticresources/externalcss.css"/>">
</head>
<body>
<h2 class="text_style">Hello World!</h2>
</body>
</html>
IT WORKS !!!
