How to fix Thymeleaf th:field unexpected error

I am new to Spring Boot and Thymeleaf. I tried to follow some example but got error as below with no any ideas...
My Spring Boot version is 2.7.1 and Java 17
entity:
#Data
public class Taco {
private String name;
private List<Ingredient> ingredients;
}
controller:
#Slf4j
#Controller
#RequestMapping("/design")
#SessionAttributes("tacoOrder")
public class DesignTacoController {
#ModelAttribute
public void addIngredientsToModel(Model model) {
List<Ingredient> ingredients = Arrays.asList(
new Ingredient("FLTO", "Flour Tortilla", Type.WRAP),
new Ingredient("COTO", "Corn Tortilla", Type.WRAP),
new Ingredient("GRBF", "Ground Beef", Type.PROTEIN),
new Ingredient("CARN", "Carnitas", Type.PROTEIN),
new Ingredient("TMTO", "Diced Tomatoes", Type.VEGGIES),
new Ingredient("LETC", "Lettuce", Type.VEGGIES),
new Ingredient("CHED", "Cheddar", Type.CHEESE),
new Ingredient("JACK", "Monterrey Jack", Type.CHEESE),
new Ingredient("SLSA", "Salsa", Type.SAUCE),
new Ingredient("SRCR", "Sour Cream", Type.SAUCE)
);
Type[] types = Ingredient.Type.values();
for (Type type : types) {
model.addAttribute(type.toString().toLowerCase(),
filterByType(ingredients, type));
}
}
#GetMapping
public String showDesignForm(Model model) {
model.addAttribute("taco", new Taco());
return "design";
}
private Iterable<Ingredient> filterByType(
List<Ingredient> ingredients, Type type) {
return ingredients
.stream()
.filter(x -> x.getType().equals(type))
.collect(Collectors.toList());
}
}
view:
<form method="POST" th:object="${design}">
<div>
<h3>Name your taco creation:</h3>
<input type="text" th:field="*{name}"/><br/>
<button>Submit your taco</button>
</div>
</form>
The th:field will get 500 internal error when I open this web page....
I've google and take a look in Thymeleaf document, but seems the th:field usage is correct.

From incomplete template code I'm asuming the error is due to the fact that you only set a taco attriubte in your controller model.addAttribute("taco", new Taco()); but call a design object in view <form method="POST" th:object="${design}"> You'd either have to change the ${design} to ${taco} or define a seperate design attirbute

How to authorize html elements to specific users with sec:authorize with thymeleaf?

i would like for certain elements to show in front end for only certain users (not any user with certain role).
Why does this work:
<form sec:authorize="${principal.username.equals('A') }" th:action="#{'/saunojat/' + ${saunoja.username} + '/photo'}" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="photo" />
<p>Kuvan tarina: <input type="text" name="description"/></p>
<p> Asetetaanko kuva profiilikuvaksi?<input type="checkbox" name="isProfilepicture"/></p>
<input type="submit" value="Send!"/>
</form>
But this does not:
<form sec:authorize="${principal.username.equals(saunoja.username) }" th:action="#{'/saunojat/' + ${saunoja.username} + '/photo'}" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="photo" />
<p>Kuvan tarina: <input type="text" name="description"/></p>
<p> Asetetaanko kuva profiilikuvaksi?<input type="checkbox" name="isProfilepicture"/></p>
<input type="submit" value="Send!"/>
</form>
saunoja is an attribute from Model. Its an #Entity:
package projekti;
import java.util.List;
import javax.persistence.ElementCollection;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.FetchType;
import lombok.AllArgsConstructor;
import lombok.Data;
import lombok.NoArgsConstructor;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.domain.AbstractPersistable;
#Entity

public class Saunoja extends AbstractPersistable<Long> {
private String username;
private String password;
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
#ElementCollection(targetClass = String.class, fetch = FetchType.EAGER)
private List<String> roles;
}
The error:

This application has no explicit mapping for /error, so you are seeing this as a fallback.

I finally fixed it with thymeleaf th:if.
<div th:if="${saunoja.username == currentSaunoja.username}">
<form th:action="#{'/saunojat/' + ${saunoja.username} + '/photo'}" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="photo" value="Valitse kuva"/>
<p>Kuvan tarina: <input type="text" name="description"/></p>
<p>Asetetaanko kuva profiilikuvaksi? <input type="checkbox" name="isProfilepicture"/></p>
<input type="submit" value="Send!"/>
</form>
</div>
currentSaunoja is the Logged in Saunoja from spring security authentication.

Select option filtering in Thymeleaf

I have one to many relationship, one EmployeeDTO has many RedeemAccountDTO. I have a web page with a full list of RedeemAccountDTO objects. I want to filter those object records with select options where I have a list of employeeDTO objects. I've implemented back-end part, but I have a hard time with Thymeleaf. First I wanted for list to filter when I click on the option, with th:onchange attribute, but it doesn't worked. Now I'm trying with submit button, after I choose an option.
I've tried also this:
How do I pass the selected dropdown value to a controller in Thymeleaf?
but with no success
My select element in html page:
<form th:action="#{/redeem_accounts_list_by_redeemer/{id}(id=${employee.idEmployee})}" >
<div align="left" >
<label for = "employee">Redeem nalozi po ridimeru: </label>
<select id = "employee" name = "employee">
<option selected disabled hidden style='display: none' value=''></option>
<option th:each = "employee: ${employees}" th:value = "${employee.idEmployee}" th:text = "${employee.employeeName}" th:data = "${employee.idEmployee}"></option>
</select>
<button type = "submit">Search</button>
</div>
</form>
it gives me org.springframework.expression.spel.SpelEvaluationException: EL1007E: Property or field 'idEmployee' cannot be found on null, and I got a whitelabel error page. I don't know how it doesn't see employeeId, because I already have all employee objects from the database loaded in select options.
This is a method from controller that needs to respond on button click:
#GetMapping("/redeem_accounts_list_by_redeemer/{id}")
public ModelAndView redeemAccByRedeemer(#PathVariable(value = "id") int id ,Model model)
{
ModelAndView modelAndView = new ModelAndView();
List<RedeemAccountDTO> listOfRedeemAccByRedeemer = new ArrayList<RedeemAccountDTO>();

Log was greater than this but it was trace level log for hibernate, that works fine so I've omitted that.

Hi I think you are getting the error below:
EL1007E: Property or field 'idEmployee' cannot be found on null
Because the idEmployee has not been binded from an object to the form you submitted.
I suggest you pass an object with an idEmployee and see the example code below for the updated select option:
<form th:object="${object}" th:action="#{/redeem_accounts_list_by_redeemer/{id}(id=${object.idEmployee})}" >
<div align="left" >
<label for = "employee">Redeem nalozi po ridimeru: </label>
<select id = "employee" name = "employee" th:field="*{idEmployee}">
<option selected disabled hidden style='display: none' value=''></option>
<option th:each = "employee: ${employees}" th:value = "${employee.idEmployee}" th:text = "${employee.employeeName}" th:data = "${employee.idEmployee}"></option>
</select>
<button type = "submit">Search</button>
</div>
</form>
Here, I binded an object object with a field idEmployee to the form.

OK, this worked for me:
<form th:object = "${employee}" th:action="#{/redeem_accounts_list_by_redeemer?{id}(id=${idEmployee})}" method = "GET" >
<div align="left">
<label for = "employeeDTO">Redeem nalozi po ridimeru: </label>
<select id = "employeeDTO" name = "employeeDTO">
<option selected disabled hidden style='display: none' value=''></option>
<option th:each = "employeeDTO: ${employees}" th:value = "${employeeDTO.idEmployee}" th:text = "${employeeDTO.employeeName}" th:data = "${employeeDTO.idEmployee}"></option>
</select>
<button class="btn btn-primary" type = "submit">Search</button>
</div>
</form>
I had some more problems, I wanted for id to be attached to url like nameofthepage/id and then in controller to catch id with #PathVariable. But this generetad an URL parameter nameofthepage?id, so I've used #RequestParam to receive id. Also in my previous post, I forgot GET method, but that alone didn't solved a problem.

I'm trying to open my html page but I'm stuck with these error whenever I try to get access to localhost.

This application has no explicit mapping for /error, so you are seeing this as a fallback.

Thymeleaf can only access the properties of objects via getters. Also if you were to use object binding with Thymeleaf you would have to make sure you have setters and default constructor.
In general whenever you work with Thymeleaf it is a good idea to define all the getters, setters and default constructor for all objects being passed to thymeleaf.

you should change the visibility of the user's properties to public.
and it's done.

Error during execution of processor 'org.thymeleaf.spring5.processor.SpringInputGeneralFieldTagProcessor' (template: "index" - line 93, col 69)

I have a register form on homepage and when I am trying to load up the home page I get the error.
Error during execution of processor 'org.thymeleaf.spring5.processor.SpringInputGeneralFieldTagProcessor' (template: "index" - line 93, col 69)
Here is my form.
<form method="post" th:action="#{/register}" th:object="${registerRequestModel}">
<div class="md-form">
<i class="fas fa-user prefix white-text active"></i>
<input type="text" id="form3" name="name" th:field="*{name}" class="white-text form-control">
<label for="form3" class="active">Your name</label>
</div>
<div class="md-form">
<i class="fas fa-envelope prefix white-text active"></i>
<input type="email" id="form2" name="email" th:field="*{email}" class="white-text form-control">

</div>
<div class="md-form">

</div>
<div class="text-center mt-4">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-indigo">Sign up</button>
</form>
My Controller.
#RestController
public class RequestHandler {
private AbstractRepository service;
#Autowired
public RequestHandler(AbstractRepository service) {
this.service=service;
}
#GetMapping("/")
public ModelAndView home(ModelAndView mv) {
mv.addObject("registerRequestModel", new RegisterRequestModel());
mv.setViewName("index");
return mv;
}
#PostMapping("/register")
public String registerUser(RegisterRequestModel registerRequestModel) {
service.registerCollaborators(registerRequestModel);
return "User Registered";
}
}
When I run this application on localhost:8080 Then it gives the above error. When I remove th:field="*{name}" then it works perfectly
Here is my model class. I have almost tried everything but it doesn't work
public class RegisterRequestModel {
private String name;
private String email;
private String password;
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public String getEmail() {
return email;
}
public void setEmail(String email) {
this.email = email;
}
public String getPassword() {
return password;
}
public void setPassword(String password) {
this.password = password;
}
#Override
public String toString() {
return "RegisterRequestModel [name=" + name + ", email=" + email + ", password=" + password + "]";
}
}
Here is the full stack trace as requested.

You forgot the #ModelAttribute annotation. Make your #PostMapping method read like this:
#PostMapping("/register")
public String registerUser(#ModelAttribute RegisterRequestModel registerRequestModel) {
// service.registerCollaborators(registerRequestModel); what does this do?
return view; // you should return the name of a template here.
}

From this line of your code:
<input type="text" id="form3" name="name" th:field="*{name}" class="white-text form-control">
specifically the th:field="*{name}"is what is causing the error. I had a similar problem and i remove the thfrom it and it worked.
