Answer

Use

<portlet:resourceURL var="ajaxTreeURL">
        <portlet:param name="action" value="showTree"/>
</portlet:resourceURL>

instead of

<portlet:actionURL var="ajaxTreeURL">
    <portlet:param name="action" value="showTree"/>
</portlet:actionURL>

Question 2

I'm developing a portlet with Spring MVC Portlet and deployed in Liferay. My intention for this portlet is to show a tree with some important info. To achieve this goal i need to request the server json files with the info that fills the tree.

The jsp page itself loads ok. I added a link in order to test if i can get a valid json. I've been looking for help and documentation and i generate a friendly url in the jsp. But when i click the link to get the json, the server throws the following error:

12:07:40,767 ERROR [http-bio-8080-exec-5][render_portlet_jsp:154] org.springframework.web.portlet.NoHandlerFoundException: No matching handler method found for portlet request: mode 'view', phase 'ACTION_PHASE', parameters map['action' -> array<String>['showTree']]

Maybe i forgot something important. I paste the relevant parts of my code:

home.jsp (rendered home page)

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/portlet" prefix="portlet"%>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<body>
    <!-- Add a <div> element where the tree should appear: -->
    <h1>Liferay Spring Portlet MVC - Tree</h1>
    <p>The time on the server is ${serverTime}.</p>
    <p>Date: <input type="text" id="datepicker" /></p>
    <div id="tree"> </div>

    <portlet:actionURL var="ajaxTreeURL">
        <portlet:param name="action" value="showTree"/>
    </portlet:actionURL>
    <a href="<%= ajaxTreeURL.toString() %>" > Go </a>
</body>
</html>

HomeController.java (renders the page and handles the requests)

public class HomeController {

    private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(HomeController.class);

    @Autowired
    private ExperimentService experimentService;
    /**
     * Simply selects the home view to render by returning its name.
     */
    @RenderMapping
    public String home(Locale locale, Model model) {
        logger.info("Welcome home! the client locale is "+ locale.toString());

        Date date = new Date();
        DateFormat dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(DateFormat.LONG, DateFormat.LONG, locale);

        String formattedDate = dateFormat.format(date);

        model.addAttribute("serverTime", formattedDate);

        experimentService.getExperiments();

        return "home";
    }

    @RequestMapping(params= {"action=showTree"})
     public void showTreeHandler(ResourceRequest request, ResourceResponse response, Model model) throws Exception {
        OutputStream outStream = response.getPortletOutputStream();
        StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
        Map<String, String> testMap = new HashMap<String, String>();
        testMap.put("foo", "bar");
        String test = new JSONObject(testMap).toString();
        buffer.append(test);
        outStream.write(buffer.toString().getBytes());
     }
} String home(Locale locale, Model model) {
    logger.info("Welcome home! the client locale is "+ locale.toString());

    Date date = new Date();
    DateFormat dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(DateFormat.LONG, DateFormat.LONG, locale);

    String formattedDate = dateFormat.format(date);

    model.addAttribute("serverTime", formattedDate);

    experimentService.getExperiments();

    return "home";
}

@RequestMapping(params= {"action=showTree"})
 public void showTreeHandler(ResourceRequest request, ResourceResponse response, Model model) throws Exception {
    OutputStream outStream = response.getPortletOutputStream();
    StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
    Map<String, String> testMap = new HashMap<String, String>();
    testMap.put("foo", "bar");
    String test = new JSONObject(testMap).toString();
    buffer.append(test);
    outStream.write(buffer.toString().getBytes());
 }
}

I add some extra config files (portlet.xml):
