Within the LoginController i have defined one method that will handle for initial HttpRequest
@Controller
public class LoginController {
@RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String signIn() {
return "sign-in";
}
}
When i request for the sign in page using http://localhost:8080/AdminApplication/
It gives me 404 not found error. Can you tell me what is the mistake i have done at here for the entire setup.

I have done mistake one mistake in Parent POM.xml, where i have defined scope as provided for spring-mvc so that it is not packaged with in lib folder. That is why dispatcher class was not found. I have checked the log and solved the issue. Thank you for all.

You should have a index page, placed directly under webapp folder, for every web-application which is the first page that is loaded when application is accessed.
Include this in your web.xml
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>redirect.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
redirect page(jsp) can be like :
<%@page contentType="text/html" pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
<% response.sendRedirect("signin"); %>
Then you could map "signin" to spring's indexcontroller. Which will have your "sign-in" page as view
