Portlet with Spring

[Anita Srivastava]

Hello,
I'm trying to build a portlet using Spring 2.5.5 and Portlet specification 2.0. I'm also using Liferay 5.1.2 portal. I'm having a problem with success view controller. When I submit a form from first view it goes to the success view but when I try to subit a form from success view, the controller attached to the success view does not get called(controller for first view gets called again from success view submit.) Here are all my codes,
