SpringBoot and check your view resolver setup with unmapped path
<p>I'm trying to run a SpringBooot 1.3.2 application with Mustache and I expect that when I call a path that isn't mapped by any controller, e.g.</p>

<pre><code>http://localhost:8080/i-am-a-path-not-mapped
</code></pre>

<p>the error page is reported, but I don't expect any exception in log. However I have this:</p>

<pre><code>javax.servlet.ServletException: Circular view path [error.html]: would dispatch back to the current handler URL [/assets/plugins/icheck-1.x/skins/error.html] again. Check your ViewResolver setup! (Hint: This may be the result of an unspecified view, due to default view name generation.)

<p>I have only this configuration.</p>

<pre><code>@Controller
@ControllerAdvice
public class ExceptionHandling {

    @ExceptionHandler(Exception.class)
    public ModelAndView exceptionHandler(final HttpServletRequest request, final HttpServletResponse response,
            final Exception ex) {

        // If exception has a ResponseStatus annotation then use its response code
        ResponseStatus responseStatusAnnotation = AnnotationUtils.findAnnotation(ex.getClass(), ResponseStatus.class);

        return buildModelAndViewErrorPage(request, response, ex,
                responseStatusAnnotation != null ? responseStatusAnnotation.value() : HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
    }

    @RequestMapping("*")
    public ModelAndView fallbackHandler(final HttpServletRequest request, final HttpServletResponse response)
        throws Exception {
        return buildModelAndViewErrorPage(request, response, null, HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND);
    }

    private ModelAndView buildModelAndViewErrorPage(final HttpServletRequest request,
            final HttpServletResponse response, final Exception ex, final HttpStatus httpStatus) {
        response.setStatus(httpStatus.value());

        ModelAndView mav = new ModelAndView("error.html");
        if (ex != null) {
            mav.addObject("title", ex);
        }

        mav.addObject("content", request.getRequestURL());
        return mav;
    }

}
</code></pre>

<hr>

<p><strong>Update</strong></p>

<p>So, from the debug, it seems that the URL mentioned in the log "/assets/plugins/icheck-1.x/skins/error.html" is matching a controller and returning an exception</p>

<pre><code>@RequestMapping(value = "/{brand}/{country}/{category}/{color}/{sku}", method = GET)
public String anonymous_product(@PathVariable final String brand, @PathVariable final String country,
                @PathVariable final String category, @PathVariable final String color, @PathVariable final String sku){
    ...
}
</code></pre>

<p>Clearly throws the exception because there is no product with that data.</p>

<p>To recap</p>

<ol>
<li>I call <code>http://localhost:8080/i-am-a-path-not-mapped</code></li>
<li>No controller exists for that path</li>
<li>For such a reason the path <code>/assets/plugins/icheck-1.x/skins/error.html</code> is called</li>
</ol>

<p>Any idea?</p>
