Servlet mapping Issue wtih mvc resources spring

I have an issue with mvc:resources

My main-servlet.xml

    **
    <bean id="viewResolver"
        class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
        <property name="prefix" value="/jsp/" />
        <property name="suffix" value=".jsp" />
    </bean>

    <bean id="multipartResolver"
        class="org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver">
        <property name="maxUploadSize" value="50000000" />
    </bean>

    <mvc:resources mapping="/images/**" location="/images/" />
    <mvc:resources mapping="/css/**" location="/css/" />
    **

When I comment the mvc:resources lines everything (else) starts working magically. But when I uncomment the lines, ONLY the resources work. While compiling, log says that ONLY css/** and images/** were mapped and that there is no other mapping.

Web.xml File : 

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>main</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/css/**</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>main</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/images/**</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
     <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>main</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

I tried putting 2 dispatcher servlets but that doesn't working either. The other servlet gets read and does get mapped but the request defaults to the main servlet.

Compilation log AFTER commenting /css/** and /images/** from web.xml : 

    **
    org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.AbstractUrlHandlerMapping registerHandler
    INFO: Mapped URL path [/images/**] onto handler 'org.springframework.web.servlet.resource.ResourceHttpRequestHandler#0'

The question has already been answered but I ran into a bunch of issues while solving it so I wanna leave a few resolution steps just in case someone comes looking with similar problems :

1st and initial issue : mvc:resources what misbehaving (details in question) Solution : Solved exactly as the accepted answer suggested. (

2nd Issue (see 1st stack trace) : Occurs when you don't have a closing tag for ) Solution : add " / " at the end or add right after (also the accepted answer has it correct)

3rd Issue (2nd (last) stack trace) : Occurrs when you don't have the following dependency : 

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
            <artifactId>hibernate-validator</artifactId>
            <version>4.3.1.Final</version>
        </dependency>

Also. If you're using Tika & Solrj togather, select the sl4j-api with the higher version. Selecting the lower version causes a whole bunch of other problems (sorry no stack trace).

My versions : Solr 3.6.2, Solrj 4.4.0, Tika 1.4.

Note that none of your controllers will be registered with your current setup. You need to add 

<mvc:annotation-driven />

to your context so that Spring registers them with the DispatcherServlet.

Your main DispatcherServlet should also simply be mapped to

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>main</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

The others are redundant.
