Spring Boot is not loading CSS and JS files properly

Question

When I use @GetMapping("/index") CSS and JavaScript files load properly.

But when I use @GetMapping("/admin/index") CSS and JavaScript files don't load properly.

Works fine for

@GetMapping("/index")
public String indexPage()
{
    return "index";
}

Not working for

@GetMapping("/admin/index")
public String indexPage()
{
    return "index";
}

Project structure is

JSP Page

JS and CSS files are requested from the browser relatively to the current location. That means that if you are:

If you want to use your second mapping @GetMapping("/admin/index"), you should request your JS and CSS differently in the JSP
