I'm building a website using Spring and the SpringMobile extension.
I've configured the LiteDeviceDelegatingViewResolver with mobilePrefix = m/, tabletPrefix = t/ and enableFallback = true, so that, whenever a dedicated mobile (or tablet) view isn't available, the "normal" (desktop site) view is served.
The site has several sections and subsections. For instance, there's a Products section and several Categories within it.
Currently, there isn't a landing page for Products, so I redirect the user to the first Category. In other words, when the link to /products is clicked, the corresponding @Controller method redirects to /products/category1 (by returning "redirect:/products/category1"); then, the method mapped to /products/category1, serves the view (by returning "viewname").
This works as expected when using the desktop site. However, in the mobile site, whenever I try to browse to /products, I get automatically redirected to /m/products by SpringMobile (which is fine), but then my @Controller gets into action, and, instead of being eventually redirected to /m/products/category1, strangely I get redirected to /m/products/m//products/category1.
Any ideas on why is this happening, and on how to achieve the expected behavior?
P.S.: If I navigate directly to /m/products/category1, the desktop view (the fallback) is properly shown.
Well, it turns out this was a bug in SpringMobile(MOBILE-70, MOBILE-78) which was fixed in version 1.1.0.RC1. It also affected forward: redirection.
I've updated my project dependencies, and the issues appear to be gone for good.
