Thymeleaf and JSP resolvers in one Spring MVC app

I have a Spring MVC application with Thymeleaf view resolver. Here is my config class:

public class WebConfig extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {

    @Bean
    public SpringResourceTemplateResolver springResourceTemplateResolver() {
        return new SpringResourceTemplateResolver();
    }

    @Bean
    public ViewResolver viewResolver() {
        ThymeleafViewResolver resolver = new ThymeleafViewResolver();
        resolver.setTemplateEngine(templateEngine());
        resolver.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
        return resolver;
    }

    @Bean
    public TemplateEngine templateEngine() {
        SpringTemplateEngine engine = new SpringTemplateEngine();
        engine.setEnableSpringELCompiler(true);
        engine.setTemplateResolver(templateResolver());
        return engine;
    }

    private ITemplateResolver templateResolver() {
        springResourceTemplateResolver().setPrefix("/WEB-INF/templates/");
        springResourceTemplateResolver().setTemplateMode(TemplateMode.HTML);
        return springResourceTemplateResolver();
    }

}

Now I need to add a jsp resolver to the same application. I'm adding InternalResourceViewResolver bean but it doesn't work as expected:

@Bean
    public InternalResourceViewResolver jspViewResolver() {
        InternalResourceViewResolver resolver  = new InternalResourceViewResolver();
        resolver.setPrefix("/WEB-INF/views/");
        resolver.setSuffix(".jsp");
        return resolver;
    }

Instead of getting test_jsp page when I go to /test/jsp I get an error:

    @RequestMapping(value = "/test/leaf", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public String mainPage() {
        return "test_html.html";
    }

    @RequestMapping(value = "/test/jsp", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public String mainPage2() {
        return "test_jsp";
    }

Request processing failed; nested exception is org.thymeleaf.exceptions.TemplateInputException: An error happened during template parsing (template: "ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/templates/test_jsp]")

Does anybody know how to add jsp view resolver when ThymeLeaf is already in place? I need Spring to look for Thymeleaf first and when page is not found then he searches jsp. Thanks

Set the order property on the ThymeleafViewResolver to a lower integer than other order properties on other resolvers. Zero makes sense for your case.

For your controller, you'll want to return just the page name and leave off the extension (.html).

Finally, post the full trace when you're posting error messages to SO. As it stands, there could also be an issue with your JSP but a reader here can't readily tell.
