sendRedirect not working

I'm trying to redirect to a different page. I've tried this locally on my machine using jetty and the redirect works correctly. Now if I deploy the war file to tomcat and try to redirect the page I get this error. 

HTTP Status 500 - File "/WEB-INF/jsp/.jsp" not found
javax.servlet.ServletException: File "/WEB-INF/jsp/.jsp" not found
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.handleMissingResource(JspServlet.java:412)
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:379)
org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:334)
javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:728)

org.springframework.web.servlet.FrameworkServlet.doPost(FrameworkServlet.java:585)
javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:647)
javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:728)

I'm not sure why its not putting the file name in "WEB-INF/jsp/.jsp".

Here is the java code that sends the redirect.

@RequestMapping(value="/surescriptstart", method=RequestMethod.POST)
public ModelAndView surescriptTes2t(SureScripts pro,HttpServletResponse response , HttpServletRequest request) throws IOException, ServletException{
if(verifySureScripts){
     ....
 Message = "You are done!";
 response.sendRedirect("done.html");
 }else{     
 response.sendRedirect("surescriptstart.html");
 }
     ....

Here is part of the servlet.xml

<bean id="viewResolver"
    class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.UrlBasedViewResolver">
    <property name="viewClass"
        value="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.JstlView" />
    <property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/" />
    <property name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
</bean>

what do you return from the method surescriptTes2t? you must have returned a empty view name, so spring mvc try to resolve it with jsp at /WEB-INF/jsp/.jsp instead of sending a 302 redirect.

if all you need is a redirection, try to make it void:

public void surescriptTes2t
