Cannot access CSS files defined under WEB-INF from JSP

I have created Struts2 application using Maven. In this application I have created two namespaces, first is tc and the second one is cmpui. From the JSP page, I am trying to access .css files, but it is giving me 404 error.

Location of JSP page is :

webapp\tc\layout\stylesheets.jsp

Location of CSS file is :

WEB-INF\css\default.css

Code on JSP page is

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../WEB-INF/css/default.css">

Any suggestion please.

You can not access a resources that are under WEB-INF folder. Move your static resources to another place accessible by Struts2 (for example, web root). And use s:url tag to build the URL.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<s:url value='/css/default.css'/>">
