This is the jsp file:
I don't know why the tomcat don't find the index.jsp.
Your index.jsp is located in directory "WEB-INF" which cannot be accessed by url. Move it to the root of your application.
Another option is to redirect the first call to a spring controller. Create an index.html for example and add a redirect to it, i.E.:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=/app/">
You have to keep you index.jsp file in public folder i.e. WebContent folder for direct access.
I'm having a problem trying to figure out what went wrong with my code.
I'm trying to create a user and role management using spring mvc + hibernate + mysql but what happens is all of my page return http 404

Thank you
Servlet context is the child context of root context. Thus all beans defined in root context are available in servlet context but the one's defined in servlet context are not available in root context.
I am presuming you are doing db interactions in customUserDetailsService thus would have injected/used EM/SessionFactory somehow. However these are defined in servlet context thus these definitions are not available in root context during creations of customUserDetailsService.
The simplest solution may be to move the relevant beans definition (relate to db interactions) to root context. However be careful since you wouldn't have flexibility to do web scoping (request/session etc) of these beans in root context (it's not web aware whereas servlet context in contrast is).
I have an issue trying to access css & js files from a jsp file (WEB-INF/jsp/index.jsp). I read through some of the similar issue faced by other people at Stack Overflow.
I added this line of code to my SpringMVCProj-servlet.xml and it made things a lot more complicated.
<mvc:resources mapping="/WebContent/**" location="/WebContent/" />

So what do I have to change to get my flow working
You're missing the flow resolver on the springmvc-servlet.xml
<!-- define controller mappings for webflow -->
<bean id="webflowHandlerMapping" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.SimpleUrlHandlerMapping">
<property name="order" value="5"/>
<property name="mappings">
<props>
<prop key="**/hello">flowController</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>
<!-- webflow configuration -->
<import resource="spring-webflow.xml"/>
And in your flow file use:
<!-- setup webflow -->
<bean id="mvcViewFactoryCreator" class="org.springframework.webflow.mvc.builder.MvcViewFactoryCreator">
<property name="viewResolvers" ref="tilesViewResolver"/>
</bean>
<flow:flow-builder-services id="flowBuilderServices" view-factory-creator="mvcViewFactoryCreator"/>
<flow:flow-registry id="flowRegistry" base-path="/WEB-INF/flows" flow-builder-services="flowBuilderServices">
<flow:flow-location-pattern value="/**/*-flow.xml"/>
</flow:flow-registry>
<flow:flow-executor id="flowExecutor" flow-registry="flowRegistry"/>
There may be more, but follow the link that #rrkwells suggested for a more complete example.
