when I run the project on tomcat server and open browser http://localhost:8080/SpringMVCDemo1/ the page given below appears main-page.jsp is in webapp/WEB-INF/view/ folder). Tomcat works fine. If main-page.jsp is in /webapp/folder, the page works fine.
What can be the reason of this and how can this be solved?
What I have done so far is clean Tomcat work directory->clean->clean project->update maven dependencies
