Hi,

I'm new to Activiti as well as to Spring and struggling how to use external form in Spring MVC.
As of now I just want to load my Form when application is loaded in Spring. Below is the flow -

Below is the method called when application loads.
@RequestMapping("/")
public void bookInfo() {
         System.out.println("We are Here");
           runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey("myProcess");    
                               System.out.println("We are Here calling");
      }


I'm expecting that as i'm starting a process (and there is no exception w.r.t to starting the process. My form should be load. But I'm getting below exception.

HTTP Status 404 - /SpringMVC/WEB-INF/jsp/.jsp

I know why i'm getting this error but i don't know how to proceed.. I have no issues when i call below method and return jsp name insideModel and view.

@RequestMapping("/")
      public ModelAndViewbookInfo() {
         System.out.println("We are Here");
           runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey("myProcess");      
           System.out.println("We are Here calling");
                     return new ModelAndView("name", "command", new BookInfo());
      }
   

But I want Activiti to start the workflow and load my form jsp rather than spring controller doing it for me. please help I have to start one POC.
