This application has no explicit mapping for error

Question

I used maven to do the tutorial https   spring io guides gs uploading-files  All the codes I used was copied   The Application can run  but I get the error      Whitelabel Error Page This application has no explicit mapping for  error  so you are seeing this as a fallback     Tue Jun 30 17 24 02 CST 2015 There was an unexpected error  type Not Found  status 404      No message available   How can I fix it

User · Answer

Do check if you have marked the controller class with  RestController annotation

User · Answer

it means you are trying to access the page which is not there  suppose your jsp file is at  webapp home jsp now if you use  RequestMapping   home   on your code and return  home jsp   then you will get this error if you try to access using localhost port  but if you try localhost port home there will be no error you can fix this by checking your  RequestMapping      here put  mapping path of the page you are trying to access  and you can also try adding a dependency of tomcat jaspher from maven dependency

Quite late to the party  As per spring official documentation  Spring Boot installs a whitelabel error page that you see in a browser client if you encounter a server error   https   docs spring io spring-boot docs current reference htmlsingle  howto-customize-the-whitelabel-error-page   You can disable the feature by setting server error whitelabel enabled false in application yml or application properties file    2 Recommended way is set your error page so that end user can understand  Under resources templates folder create a error html file and add dependency in pom xml file      lt dependency gt   lt groupId gt org springframework boot lt  groupId gt   lt artifactId gt spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf lt  artifactId gt   lt  dependency gt    Spring will automatically choose the error html page as the default error template  Note - Don t forget to update maven project after adding dependency

By default spring boot will scan current package for bean definition  So if your current package where main class is defined and controller package is not same or controller package is not child package of your main app package it will not scan the controller  To solve this issue one can include list of packages for bean definition in main package   SpringBootApplication scanBasePackages     com module restapi1 controller      or create a hierarchy of package where child package is derived from main package  package com module restapi  package com module restapi controller

When we create a Spring boot application we annotate it with  SpringBootApplication annotation  This annotation  wraps up  many other necessary annotations for the application to work  One such annotation is  ComponentScan annotation  This annotation tells Spring to look for Spring components and configure the application to run   Your application class needs to be top of your package hierarchy  so that Spring can scan sub-packages and find out the other required components   package com test spring boot  import org springframework boot SpringApplication  import org springframework boot autoconfigure SpringBootApplication    SpringBootApplication public class App       public static void main String   args            SpringApplication run App class  args             Below code snippet works as the controller package is under com test spring boot package  package com test spring boot controller   import org springframework web bind annotation RequestMapping  import org springframework web bind annotation RestController    RestController public class HomeController         RequestMapping          public String home            return  Hello World              Below code snippet  does NOT Work as the controller package is NOT under com test spring boot package  package com test controller   import org springframework web bind annotation RequestMapping  import org springframework web bind annotation RestController    RestController public class HomeController          RequestMapping           public String home             return  Hello World                From Spring Boot documentation      Many Spring Boot developers always have their main class annotated   with  Configuration   EnableAutoConfiguration and  ComponentScan    Since these annotations are so frequently used together  especially if   you follow the best practices above   Spring Boot provides a   convenient  SpringBootApplication alternative       The  SpringBootApplication annotation is equivalent to using    Configuration   EnableAutoConfiguration and  ComponentScan with their   default attributes

I ve been getting a similar error while trying out a Spring Boot sample application with Thymeleaf  tried all the different solutions provided unfortunately didn t worked   My error was that the returned string from Controller method was not having a respective view html   It might be you have missed or there could be some typo in the file name  As shown in the example inside the controller   GetMapping      public String listUploadedFiles Model model  throws IOException        model addAttribute  files   storageService loadAll   map              path - gt  MvcUriComponentsBuilder fromMethodName FileUploadController class                       serveFile   path getFileName   toString    build   toString                 collect Collectors toList           return  uploadForm       the return String should be match the html file name at      src main resources templates uploadForm html   Thymeleaf will look for the file with same name as in the return type and display the view  You can try with any html file and give the file name in return statement and it will populate the respective view

In my case the controller class was annotated with  Controller  Changing that to  RestController resolved the problem   Basically  RestController is  Controller    ResponseBody So either use  RestController   or  Controller with  ResponseBody annotation with each method   Some useful notes here   https   www genuitec com spring-frameworkrestcontroller-vs-controller

Make sure your Main class should be on top of your controllers  In case of the following example   Main class containing    SpringBootApplication public class Main       public static void main String   args            SpringApplication run Main class  args             EmployeeController class containing    RestController public class EmployeeController        InitBinder     public void setAllowedFields WebDataBinder dataBinder            dataBinder setDisallowedFields  id                RequestMapping value     employee save   method   RequestMethod GET      public String save            Employee newEmp   new Employee            newEmp setAge 25           newEmp setFirstName  Pikachu            newEmp setId 100           return  Name      newEmp getFirstName        Age      newEmp getAge        Id       newEmp getId              If your main class is in the root folder  just like this path   projectname  src main java main then make sure your controllers below your Main class  For example  projectname  src main java main controllers

Make sure that your main class is in a root package above other classes   When you run a Spring Boot Application   i e  a class annotated with  SpringBootApplication   Spring will only scan the classes below your main class package   com     - APP           - Application java   lt --- your main class should be here  above your controller classes                      - model               - user java           - controller               - UserController java

I know it s not exactly answer to question  but this question is first which appears on Google     Problem   This application has no explicit mapping for  error   appears when trying to access Swagger UI   In my case problems were caused by  RestController   endpoint    which isn t handled properly by swagger   So  this resulted in errors    RestController   endpoint   public class EndpointController     And this was fine   RestController  RequestMapping   endpoint   public class EndpointController

Make sure  RestController annotation is added right after the  SpringBootApplication  RestController annotation tells Spring that this code describes an endpoint that should be made available over the web

This happens when an explicit error page is not defined  To define an error page  create a mapping of  error with a view  e g  the below code maps to a string value being returned in case of an error   package com rumango controller   import org springframework boot web servlet error ErrorController  import org springframework stereotype Controller  import org springframework web bind annotation RequestMapping  import org springframework web bind annotation ResponseBody   Controller public class IndexController implements ErrorController      private final static String PATH     error        Override      RequestMapping PATH       ResponseBody     public String getErrorPath                TODO Auto-generated method stub         return  No Mapping Found

If all configurations are done correctly  as described in first two-three answers of this question  and still you are getting  Whitelabel Error Page  This application has no explicit mapping for  error  then this solution may help you   Sometimes beside configuration  issue can also be from your code side as well   You might have missed something very basic  To identify issue you need to check the trace  for that follow below steps  Open terminal  1 cd project location  to get the project location  e g  eclipse- project right click - properties- resource tab - copy path against location field  2 then run script   mvnw spring-boot run  then go to http   localhost 8080    http   localhost 8080 xyz whichever url you expecting data As soon as you hit the link  trace would have got updated    I was getting error like 2020-05-23 06 52 42 405 ERROR 3512 ---  nio-8080-exec-1  o a c c C          dispatcherServlet       Servlet service   for servlet  dispatcherServlet  in context with path    threw exception  Request processing failed  nested exception is org springframework orm jpa JpaSystemException  No default constructor for entity     com ibsplc com payroll model Employee  nested exception is org hibernate InstantiationException  No default constructor for entity     com ibsplc com payroll model Employee  with root cause  So  i added a default constructor for Employee model  run project as maven-build then then run script   mvnw spring-boot run  it worked for me

You might be getting the error i e    This application has no explicit mapping for  error  so you are seeing this as a fallback    This is because it is not scanning your Controller  amp  Service classes which you have to specify in your main   class like this   package com example demo  import org springframework boot SpringApplication  import org springframework boot autoconfigure EnableAutoConfiguration  import org springframework context annotation ComponentScan  import org springframework context annotation Configuration   Configuration  EnableAutoConfiguration    ComponentScan   com example demo    controller    service      public class SpringBootMvcExample1Application       public static void main String   args            SpringApplication run SpringBootMvcExample1Application class  args             Note  Here  I have specified various classes like demo  controller and service to be scanned then only it will work properly

The problem is that you are navigating to localhost 8080  instead of localhost 8080 upload as prescribed in the guide  Spring Boot has a default error page used when you navigate to an undefined route to avoid giving away server specific details  which can be viewed as a security risk    You re options are to either  visit the right page  add your own landing page  or override the white error page   To simplify this particular situation  I updated the guide so that it uses   instead of  upload

You can solve this by adding an ErrorController in your application  You can have the error controller return a view that you need    Error Controller in my application looks like below   import org springframework boot autoconfigure web ErrorAttributes  import org springframework boot autoconfigure web ErrorController  import org springframework http HttpStatus  import org springframework http ResponseEntity  import org springframework stereotype Controller  import org springframework web bind annotation RequestMapping  import org springframework web bind annotation ResponseBody  import org springframework web context request RequestAttributes  import org springframework web context request ServletRequestAttributes  import org springframework web servlet ModelAndView   import javax servlet http HttpServletRequest  import java util Map          Basic Controller which is called for unhandled errors      Controller public class AppErrorController implements ErrorController                  Error Attributes in the Application             private ErrorAttributes errorAttributes       private final static String ERROR PATH     error                   Controller for the Error Controller         param errorAttributes             public AppErrorController ErrorAttributes errorAttributes            this errorAttributes   errorAttributes                        Supports the HTML Error View         param request         return              RequestMapping value   ERROR PATH  produces    text html       public ModelAndView errorHtml HttpServletRequest request            return new ModelAndView   errors error   getErrorAttributes request  false                          Supports other formats like JSON  XML         param request         return              RequestMapping value   ERROR PATH       ResponseBody     public ResponseEntity lt Map lt String  Object gt  gt  error HttpServletRequest request            Map lt String  Object gt  body   getErrorAttributes request  getTraceParameter request            HttpStatus status   getStatus request           return new ResponseEntity lt Map lt String  Object gt  gt  body  status                         Returns the path of the error page                 return the error path              Override     public String getErrorPath             return ERROR PATH              private boolean getTraceParameter HttpServletRequest request            String parameter   request getParameter  trace            if  parameter    null                return false                    return   false  equals parameter toLowerCase                private Map lt String  Object gt  getErrorAttributes HttpServletRequest request                                                     boolean includeStackTrace            RequestAttributes requestAttributes   new ServletRequestAttributes request           return this errorAttributes getErrorAttributes requestAttributes                  includeStackTrace              private HttpStatus getStatus HttpServletRequest request            Integer statusCode    Integer  request                  getAttribute  javax servlet error status code            if  statusCode    null                try                   return HttpStatus valueOf statusCode                             catch  Exception ex                                    return HttpStatus INTERNAL SERVER ERROR            The above class is based on Springs BasicErrorController class   You can instantiate the above ErrorController like this in a  Configuration file     Autowired  private ErrorAttributes errorAttributes     Bean  public AppErrorController appErrorController   return new AppErrorController errorAttributes      You can choose override the default ErrorAttributes by implementing ErrorAttributes  But in most cases the DefaultErrorAttributes should suffice
