I am creating a project that functions like an ecommerce website, and my base page http://localhost:8080 opens up, but if I try adding "/admin" or any of the other mappings in the controller class, I get the 404 Whitelabel page.
How can I make any of the other mappings appear properly?
I tried changing the #ComponentScan in the main class to
"#ComponentScan(basePackages = {"com.ecommerce.website.service.*", "com.ecommerce.website.controller.*", "com.ecommerce.website.repository.*" })"
but that did not solve the issue.
Main class
#SpringBootApplication
#EnableJpaRepositories("com.ecommerce.website.repository.*")
#ComponentScan("com.ecommerce.website.service.*")
#EntityScan("com.ecommerce.website.model.*")
public class EcommerceWebsiteApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(EcommerceWebsiteApplication.class, args);
}

I removed all annotations from the main class, except for #SpringBootApplication and #ComponentScan, so now it looks like this:

#ComponentScan(basePackages={"com.ecommerce.website.service.*", "com.ecommerce.website.controller.*", "com.ecommerce.website.repository.*" })

Your controllers are simply not scanned by spring because you explicitly asked it to scan only the com.ecommerce.website.service.* package
However, your controllers are in com.ecommerce.website.controller.*
Why do you want to tell spring which scanner component?
Unless you have a good reason to do so, you should let it scan all the packages in your project.
Just put:
#SpringBootApplication
public class EcommerceWebsiteApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(EcommerceWebsiteApplication.class, args);
}
}

I'm new to the Spring framework and trying to create Spring-Boot combined with JSP to make a small web app. However, When I run the program, I get the following error.

Description:
Field bookRepository in spring.jsp.services.impl.BookServiceImpl required a bean of type 'spring.jsp.repositories.BookRepository' that could not be found.
The following candidates were found but could not be injected:
- User-defined bean
- User-defined bean method 'provideBookRepository' in 'JspConfiguration'
Action:
Consider revisiting the entries above or defining a bean of type 'spring.jsp.repositories.BookRepository' in your configuration.
I've tried to fix this by referring and using a bunch of solutions, other people provided out there like adding #Service, #Repository to the implementation class. However, none of them worked.

Try simplifying your main class and rely on the annotations defaults as follows:
#SpringBootApplication
#EntityScan("spring.jsp")
public class JspApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer {
#Override
protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder builder) {
return builder.sources(JspApplication.class);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(JspApplication.class, args);
}
}
#SpringBootApplication encapsulates #Configuration, #EnableAutoConfiguration, and #ComponentScan annotations with their default attributes. The default value for #ComponentScan means that all the sub packages on the package the #ComponentScan is used are scanned. That is why it is usually a good practice to include the main class in the base package of the project.
Try running mvn clean package and restart the spring application from your IDE afterwards.
I had the same issue and this solved it.
I did not use Spring Security but it is asking me to authenticate.

In the current version of Spring Boot (v2.1.0.RELEASE), the easiest way to get rid of the security issues is to add "WebSecurityConfig.java" to your project as follows:
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.builders.HttpSecurity;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.EnableWebSecurity;
import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter;
#EnableWebSecurity
#Configuration
public class WebSecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
#Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http.csrf().disable();
}
}
Note of course that this removes protection against cross-site request forgery, so this is really only appropriate for simple read-only endpoints.
Try to add below lines in your application.properties file
security.basic.enable: false
security.ignored=/**
According to spring doc, use security.ignored=
Comma-separated list of paths to exclude from the default secured
paths
Just remove the the spring security dependency from pom.xml file.
Worked for me :)..
if we use CXF security & Spring boot security it gives this issues.
Comment out dependency i.e disable the spring boot security then it allows.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-security</artifactId>
</dependency>
To enable this we have to write custom security or add below config
#Configuration
public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
#Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http.authorizeRequests().anyRequest().permitAll();
}
}
Exact way to disable authentication could not be found by me.But by removing actuator dependency which is working.
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator")
You can configure the springSecurityFilterChain to ignore all requests and thus allow unauthenticated access to all your endpoints with the following:
#Configuration
#EnableWebSecurity
public class WebConfiguration extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
#Override
public void configure(WebSecurity web) throws Exception {
web.ignoring().antMatchers("/**");
}
}
#harshit-sharma 's solution worked for me; I added exclusion in my main Application class:
#SpringBootApplication(exclude = { SecurityAutoConfiguration.class })
Spring Security may still be in the project libs via transitive dependencies. What should still work in Spring Boot is the following:
#Override
public void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http
.authorizeRequests()
.antMatchers("/**")
.permitAll();
}
Note: the http is a org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.builders.HttpSecurity and this is in a #Component that may already be injected into and called by some org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter implementation in your application's framework. This should override any built-in catch-all clause, i.e. http.authorizeRequests().anyRequest().denyAll() for testing purposes etc..
I solved by removed this dependency from pom.xml

What I've tried so far:
Accessing the URL with the application name (InventoryApp)
Put another #RequestMapping("/") at class level of the ItemInventoryController
As far as I understood, I won't need an application-context when using Spring Boot. Am I right?
What else can I do to access the method via URL?
Try adding the following to your InventoryApp class
#SpringBootApplication
#ComponentScan(basePackageClasses = ItemInventoryController.class)
public class InventoryApp {
...
spring-boot will scan for components in packages below com.nice.application, so if your controller is in com.nice.controller you need to scan for it explicitly.
Adding to MattR's answer:
As stated in here, #SpringBootApplication automatically inserts the needed annotations: #Configuration, #EnableAutoConfiguration, and also #ComponentScan; however, the #ComponentScan will only look for the components in the same package as the App, in this case your com.nice.application, whereas your controller resides in com.nice.controller. That's why you get 404 because the App didn't find the controller in the application package.
Same 404 response I got after service executed with the below code
#Controller
#RequestMapping("/duecreate/v1.0")
public class DueCreateController {
}
Response:
{
"timestamp": 1529692263422,
"status": 404,
"error": "Not Found",
"message": "No message available",
"path": "/duecreate/v1.0/status"
}
after changing it to below code I received proper response
#RestController
#RequestMapping("/duecreate/v1.0")
public class DueCreateController {
}
Response:
{
"batchId": "DUE1529673844630",
"batchType": null,
"executionDate": null,
"status": "OPEN"
}
SpringBoot developers recommend to locate your main application class in a root package above other classes. Using a root package also allows the #ComponentScan annotation to be used without needing to specify a basePackage attribute. Detailed info
But be sure that the custom root package exists.
There are 2 method to overcome this
Place the bootup application at start of the package structure and rest all controller inside it.
Example :
package com.spring.boot.app; - You bootup application(i.e. Main Method -SpringApplication.run(App.class, args);)
You Rest Controller in with the same package structure
Example :
package com.spring.boot.app.rest;
Explicitly define the Controller in the Bootup package.
Method 1 is more cleaner.
I had this issue and what you need to do is fix your packages. If you downloaded this project from http://start.spring.io/ then you have your main class in some package. For example if the package for the main class is: "com.example" then and your controller must be in package: "com.example.controller". Hope this helps.
The controller should be accessible in the same namespace
This is what you have
This is how it should be, see the hierarchy of the namespace
You need to modify the Starter-Application class as shown below.
#SpringBootApplication
#EnableAutoConfiguration
#ComponentScan(basePackages="com.nice.application")
#EnableJpaRepositories("com.spring.app.repository")
public class InventoryApp extends SpringBootServletInitializer {..........
And update the Controller, Service and Repository packages structure as I mentioned below.
Example:
REST-Controller
package com.nice.controller; --> It has to be modified as
package com.nice.application.controller;
You need to follow proper package structure for all packages which are in Spring Boot MVC flow.
So, If you modify your project bundle package structures correctly then your spring boot app will work correctly.
Replace #RequestMapping( "/item" ) with #GetMapping(value="/item", produces=MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE).
Maybe it will help somebody.
for me, I was adding spring-web instead of the spring-boot-starter-web into my pom.xml
when i replace it from spring-web to spring-boot-starter-web, all maping is shown in the console log.
I had exact same error, I was not giving base package. Giving correct base package,ressolved it.
package com.ymc.backend.ymcbe;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
#SpringBootApplication
#ComponentScan(basePackages="com.ymc.backend")
public class YmcbeApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(YmcbeApplication.class, args);
}
}
Note: not including .controller
#ComponentScan(basePackages="com.ymc.backend.controller") because i
have many other component classes which my project does not scan if i
just give .controller
Here is my controller sample:
package com.ymc.backend.controller;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.CrossOrigin;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.PostMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestBody;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;
#RestController
#CrossOrigin
#RequestMapping(value = "/user")
public class UserController {
#PostMapping("/sendOTP")
public String sendOTP() {
return "OTP sent";
};
}
I found a really great thread for this issue.
https://coderanch.com/t/735307/frameworks/Spring-boot-Rest-api
The controller api should be in the sub directory structure to automatically detect the controllers. Otherwise annotation argument can be used.
#SpringBootApplication(scanBasePackages = {"com.example.demo", "com.example.Controller"})
New to Springboot, tried everything above, but ended up being as simple as I had a / at the end of the URL on my browser while my only Get() method was blank, just returning a string.
Hope this'll help someone someday.
Sometimes spring boot behaves weird. I specified below in application class and it works:
#ComponentScan("com.seic.deliveryautomation.controller")
I got the 404 problem, because of Url Case Sensitivity.
For example
#RequestMapping(value = "/api/getEmployeeData",method = RequestMethod.GET) should be accessed using http://www.example.com/api/getEmployeeData. If we are using http://www.example.com/api/getemployeedata, we'll get the 404 error.
Note:
http://www.example.com is just for reference which i mentioned above. It should be your domain name where you hosted your application.
After a lot of struggle and apply all the other answers in this post, I got that the problem is with that url only. It might be silly problem. But it cost my 2 hours. So I hope it will help someone.
It also works if we use as follows:
#SpringBootApplication(scanBasePackages = { "<class ItemInventoryController package >.*" })
It could be that something else is running on port 8080, and you're actually connecting to it by mistake.
Definitely check that out, especially if you have dockers that are bringing up other services you don't control, and are port forwarding those services.
The problem is with your package structure. Spring Boot Application has a specific package structure to allow spring context to scan and load various beans in its context.
In com.nice.application is where your Main Class is and in com.nice.controller, you have your controller classes.
Move your com.nice.controller package into com.nice.application so that Spring can access your beans.
Another solution in case it helps: in my case, the problem was that I had a #RequestMapping("/xxx") at class level (in my controller), and in the exposed services I had #PostMapping (value = "/yyyy") and #GetMapping (value = "/zzz"); once I commented the #RequestMapping("/xxx") and managed all at method level, worked like a charm.
For me, the problem was that I had set up the Application in a way that it always immediately shut down after starting. So by the time I tried out if I could access the controller, the Application wasn't running anymore.
The problem with immediately shutting down is adressed in this thread.
#SpringBootApplication
#ComponentScan(basePackages = {"com.rest"}) // basePackageClasses = HelloController.class)
// use above componnent scan to add packages
public class RestfulWebServicesApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(RestfulWebServicesApplication.class, args);
}
}
There may 3 reasons causing for this error:
1>
check your URL you are requesting is correct
2> check if your
using MVC then use #Controller else use #RestController
3> check
whether you have placed Controller package(or Class) outside the root
package example: com.example.demo -> is your main
package
place controller package inside com.example.demo.controller
I had the same issue, because I created an inner class annotated with #Configuration and it prohibited somehow the component scan.
I had the same problem, and while the above solution are correct in their own right, they did not work for me, and I found another possible reason that solved it - you have to shut down the application from the port, and restart your application, if doing a Maven Update or a project clean fail to solve it.
Briefly, open a command prompt, and run the following two commands:
netstat -ano | findstr :8080
This command will locate the Process ID that is attached at the port that your app is running on - please make sure to specify the port, if you have it anywhere other than the default.
You will get the following output:
What you care about is the number in the last column, which is the process ID associated with the port, on which the instance of the app is running.
If you are using STS4 for your development purposes, you can also see the PID on the top margin of the console, but you do have to squint for it:
At this point, run the next command to kill the process:
taskkill /pid 22552 /f
And it results in this:
Do remember that there will be a different PID for every time you run the application.
And finally, you can run it again, and that should do it.

Closing network connections
Programmatically shutting down SpringBoot app
Change the Return type from String to ResponseEntity
Like :
#RequestMapping( "/item" )
public ResponseEntity<String> getStockItem() {
return new ResponseEntity<String>("It's working...!", HttpStatus.OK);
}
Place your springbootapplication class in root package for example if your service,controller is in springBoot.xyz package then your main class should be in springBoot package otherwise it will not scan below packages
You can add inside the POM.
