Fix Image Loading Issue in JSP (Java Web App on Windows Server with Tomcat)
I have a Java web application using JSP and Spring, deployed on a Windows Server, and running with Apache Tomcat. The project uses an older version of Spring (Spring 4.1.2).

Issue:
- Images stored in C:/images/ are not displaying in the JSP page.
- The browser's Network tab shows a 404 error: GET http://localhost:8080/traderPhoto/155274c07342444fb5493f7bfa740538.jpg 404 (Not Found)

Additional Context:
Images are physically present in C:/images/.
The project runs on Windows Server using Apache Tomcat.
The project is using Spring 4.1.2, which may limit some modern solutions.
JSP pages reference images like:
<img src="/traderPhoto/155274c07342444fb5493f7bfa740538.jpg">
The /traderPhoto/ path does not seem to be resolving correctly.

Requirements:
Investigate why images are not loading from C:/images/.
Fix the 404 issue when accessing images via /traderPhoto/.
Ensure images can be served correctly via JSP.
Suggest an approach that works with Spring 4.1.2 and Tomcat.
Skills Needed:
Java (JSP, Servlets, Spring 4.1.2)
Apache Tomcat Configuration
Handling static files in Java web applications
Windows Server Environment
Deliverables:
A working solution that ensures images load correctly from C:/images/ in JSP.
Explanation of why the issue occurs and how it was fixed.
Any required configuration changes (Tomcat, Spring, or project structure).
If you have experience with JSP, Spring 4.1.2, and Tomcat, please reach out with your approach and estimated time for completion.
