I'm aware similar questions have been asked but I can't seem to find one that is the same as my configuration.
I have an Eclipse Java EE project set up with Maven and spring. I followed these tutorials to set it up: http://fruzenshtein.com/setup-of-dynamic-web-project-using-maven/ http://fruzenshtein.com/spring-mvc-creation-of-simple-controller-with-java-based-config/
When I launch the project I get an error 404.
The tutorials didn't mention the creation of a dispatcher-servlet.xml so maybe that is the problem but I'm not sure if I even need it with Maven.
My config is as follows:
