Issue
Im creating an application and im starting by the log in of users, i'm trying that when they log in the page redirect to another page, im trying to do this with response.sendRedirect but this is not working, it just shows the code of the html in the console log. I would like to know why is this happening
Login class post method:
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
response.setContentType("text/html;charset=UTF-8");
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
HttpSession session = request.getSession();
JSONObject reqBody = new JSONObject(request.getReader().lines().collect(Collectors.joining(System.lineSeparator())));
JSONObject json = new JSONObject();
Database db = new Database("postgresql", "localhost", "5432", "Reader", "postgres", "kush");
if(session.isNew()) {
if(db.checkUser(reqBody.getString("email"), reqBody.getString("pass")) == true) {
json.put("status", "new session, welcome back");
storeValue(reqBody.getString("email"), reqBody.getString("pass"), reqBody.getBoolean("admin"), session);
response.sendRedirect(request.getContextPath() + "/loggedin.html");
} else {
json.put("status", "username or password incorrect");
session.invalidate();
}
} else {
json.put("status", "session updated");
storeValue(reqBody.getString("email"), reqBody.getString("pass"), reqBody.getBoolean("admin"), session);
}
out.println(json.toString());
}
I have tried to use
response.sendRedirect("loggedin.html");
or
response.setStatus(response.SC_MOVED_TEMPORARILY);
response.setHeader("Location", "loggedin.html");
or
ServletContext sc = getServletContext();
sc.getRequestDispatcher("/loggedin.html").forward(request, response);
My web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Login</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>Login</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Login</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/Login</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>page</servlet-name>
<jsp-file>/loggedin.html</jsp-file>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>page</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/Reader/loggedin.html</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

Solution
This could work for you :)
<form action="loggedin.html">
<input type="submit"/>
</form>
