Redirect to jsp from Servlet using sendRedirect method

[pateldpk]

need help... redirect to.jsp file from servlet.. here is my .jsp file location ..

E:\J2EE\tomcat\webapps\Deepak\WEB-INF\classes\mvc\view\success.jsp
E:\J2EE\tomcat\webapps\Deepak\WEB-INF\classes\mvc\view\error.jsp

Here is my code:

if(result){
response.sendRedirect("success.jsp"); error.. success.jsp not available..
return;
}else{
response.sendRedirect("error.jsp");--> error.. error.jsp not available..
return;
}

How to specify the full path of .jsp file

[Tolls]

The path to the JSP is from the root of the webapp.
In your case it would be WEB-INF/classes/mvc/vies/success.jsp (or error.jsp).
JSPs aren't normally put in the classes folder...

I tried this still its not working..[HTTP Status 404-The requested resource () is not available.]

if(result){
response.sendRedirect("WEB-INF/classes/mvc/view/success.jsp"); Or ("/WEB-INF/classes/mvc/view/success.jsp");
return;
}else{
response.sendRedirect("error.jsp");
return;

Is there any connection with servlet package...? i mean this servlet class is inside package mvc.model; Here is the full code:-

package mvc.model;

import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import java.util.LinkedList;
import java.util.List;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import mvc.helper.*;

public class pass extends HttpServlet{

protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
String userName;
String password;
userName=request.getParameter("userName");
password=request.getParameter("password");
int pass=Integer.parseInt(password);
help hp=new help();
boolean result=hp.check(userName,pass);
if(result){
response.sendRedirect("WEB-INF/classes/mvc/view/success.jsp");
return;
}else{
response.sendRedirect("WEB-INF/classes/mvc/view/error.jsp");
return;
}
}


}

Don't post to old dead threads, don't hijack another poster's thread and don't ask the same question more than once.

Do learn to use the code tags: BB Code List - Java Programming Forum

Oh K sorry.. i was thinking i vill get my solution fast.. now i understood the rules.. :-)

JSPs are not packaged.
Indeed it's quite possible this is because you have stuck your JSPs in with your classes (not sure since I have never worked on a project structured like that).

[pateldpk]

I agree JSPs are not packaged.... OK lets make a change ... I changed my JSPs directory to E:\J2EE\tomcat\webapps\Deepak\WEB-INF\view\success.jsp..... now its shoud work still same 404 error..

[Tolls]

Try forwarding rather than redirecting (I've only just noticed you're redirecting).
The redirect call is as if the client has requested that resource, which the client browser is not allowed to do for something inside the WEB-INF folder.

You'll want the RequestDispatcher from the request to do the forward.

That's a point... Yea its working using RequestDispatcher.. thanks a lot :-)
