Estou estudando webapps baseados em MVC na primavera. Então, criei um projeto no spring mvc e escolhi o eclipse IDE.Apache tomcat 8 server e jre1.8 a versão do pacote spring é 4.2.5. No meu projeto, criei o login e, que funcionou bem após o login, redirecionei a página para outro jsp chamado 'branchinsert.jsp', colocado em outra pasta (login.jsp e branchinsert.jsp são de pastas diferentes). No Branchinsert.jsp, o Spring MVC Controller está funcionando, mas não cria o URL de resposta especificado. Ele está criando o URL a partir da sequência de mapeamento de solicitação, o que significa que, se eu estiver fornecendo o padrão como mencionado abaixo,

@RequestMapping(value="/branchsubmitinsert.travel", method=RequestMethod.POST)
public ModelAndView submitBranchInsert(@ModelAttribute BranchModel branchModel){

    ModelAndView modelAndView = new ModelAndView("/branch/branchinsert");

    return modelAndView;

}

mostrando erro 404 para o URL /ProjectName/modules/branch/branchsubmitinsert.jsp

Na verdade, o URL que eu esperava é /branch/branchinsert.jsp( é o que geralmente acontece), mas aqui criou o /branch/branchsubmitinsert.jsp. porque????

este é o meu código
