Spring Web MVC: Simple controller - $-expression doesn't work

I'm starting with Spring Web MVC. I have very simple controller and view, but when i open page http://localhost:8080/springonly/spring/hello i get: ${message}, not Hello World

Anybody开发者_StackOverflow中文版 know what is wrong with that ? Why $-expression have not been recognized ?

View - hello.jsp:

${message}

Controller - HelloController.java:

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;

@Controller
public class HelloController {

    @RequestMapping("/hello")
    public ModelAndView hello(HttpServletRequest request,
            HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
        return new ModelAndView("hello", "message", "Hello World");
    }

}

web.xml:

<web-app>
    <display-name>Spring Only WebApp</display-name>

    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>springonly</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
            <param-value>/WEB-INF/config/applicationContext.xml</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>springonly</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/spring/*</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

</web-app>

applicationContext.xml:

<!-- scan for Controllers -->
<context:component-scan base-package="net.marioosh.spring.springonly" />

<!-- view resolver -->
<bean id="viewResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
    <property name="viewClass" value="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.JstlView" />
    <property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/pages/" />
    <property name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
</bean>

log say:

Your web.xml is missing the correct header, it should be something like:

<web-app 
    xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" 
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd" 
    version="2.4"> 

If you leave that out, and just have a bare <web-app>, the container will default to an old, pre-EL version of JSP.
