Spring Boot Maven Build Problem with Random Values in application.properties - java

I have edited, for example, application.properties from
spring.mail.host=stmp.test.com
to
spring.mail.host=${server.mail.host}
and I override at starttime these properties to the correct values. This works fine until I want to run maven to build my application.
I receive the following Exception
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Failed to process import candidates for configuration class
I think the problem is that maven also needs these values but how and where can I insert them? I dont want to run mvn on the cli.

I think #Nicholas K was making the point that you can pass in those values in you maven command. For example with the argument mvn spring-boot:run "-Dserver.mail.host=mailhost".
You can also set an environment variable and that should be injected:
export SERVER_MAIL_HOST=mailhost
Or if you sometimes don't want to set them you could set a default for the property in your properties file:
spring.mail.host=${server.mail.host:defaultmailhost}
Or default it to an empty string

spring.profiles.active is not working in springboot application

I have created Profiles in Java class like this,
#Profile(value = "cache")
public class MapCache {
....
}
These profiles are not getting activated when spring.profiles.active used, but if i use spring.profiles.include profiles are working fine.
I would like activate profiles through properties which are added in application.properties
Note: application is running in independent jetty instance.
Any tip would be great on this.
To activate a profile via annotations you need #ActiveProfile("profileName"). The #Profile annotation is used to label an object as being a member of the profile.
you can also try to run the application and pass them as command line args
java -jar -Dspring.profiles.active={your_profile_name} application.jar
or if you run the app via maven:
mvn spring-boot:run -Dspring-boot.run.profiles={your_profile_name}
Here is an nice example I found on the internet with all the ways you can set the spring profile, it should help : https://www.baeldung.com/spring-profiles
I encountered a similar issue where SpringBoot wasn't activating the profiles set in the spring.profiles.active application property.
The issue was the result of the code base using a non standard name and location for the application property file (not my doing). Once I specified the location via the command line arg- --spring.config.location=/non/standard/location/acme.properties- the profile was activated.

Saving SpringLiquibase's SQL statement for later use

If I run Liquibase by Maven then I use "mvn liquibase:updateSQL", but how to save statement using SpringLiquibase?
You can save the updateSQL script to an external file using the parameter -Dliquibase.migrationSqlOutputFile=xxxx while invoking the command. See more info at : https://docs.liquibase.com/tools-integrations/maven/commands/maven-updatesql.html
Or you could specify the file name in your maven pom.xml using in your Liquibase configuration and adding a maven goal.
If you are asking to use a Spring property for Liquibase like spring.liquibase.change-log then I'm not sure if one exists for migrationSqlOutputFile like spring.liquibase.migrationSqlOutputFile, but you could try it.

Flyway can't find classpath:db/migrations

I just started right now a new project in Intellij using Spring Boot ver 2.1.3 and Flyway 5.2.4 with Java 11.
After try to start my project i got :
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'flyway' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/flyway/FlywayAutoConfiguration$FlywayConfiguration.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.flywaydb.core.Flyway]: Factory method 'flyway' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot find migrations location in: [classpath:db/migration] (please add migrations or check your Flyway configuration)
I have the following folders:
As you can see i have "db/migration" but without any migration, i just started right now. Debugging the class FlywayAutoConfiguration i got the following:
So, i tried to return all files in "classpath:", see:
Note that i just have "application.properties" file.
It is not that much useful or accurate answer.
But This issue make you frustrated so that i give this solution.
Note: Strange but it's true, Sometime it's not allow copy paste because your folder created db.migration and it expact db->migration(It's not same in this scenario). So whenever you start from scratch. Go to the resource folder -> Create DB folder -> Create migration folder -> Create database file with Version_SubVersion__Name(As defined below).
Normally this happens in following cases,
Path is not proper try using set locations param value.
db.migrate folder not contain any file.
Check name of file : V1_1__(short_desc)
Try to run using, mvn compile flyway:migrate
In my case i already place sql file over there but still it gives same error,
Basically i place this sql file using copy paste from somewhere.
When i try to add one new file on same place using IDE (Intellij : Right click on migration folder -> new -> Flyway migration -> versioned migration), then it ask me(warning) about some delicate allowance(normally we mention in database configuration i also place there still), and it start working.
Flyway requires at-least one script, disable it until u need it by using following command in application.properties file
spring.flyway.enabled=false
I believe that Flyway requires at least one migration script to initialize. Try adding a simple sql creation script into your migration folder and give it another try. Alternatively you can disable the flyway dependency until you need it.
I had a similar error, and solved it as follows: I added these commands
spring.flyway.baselineOnMigrate=true
spring.flyway.check-location=true
spring.flyway.locations=classpath:db/migration
spring.flyway.schemas=public
spring.flyway.enabled=true
to application.properties
I had the same issue. When I created the directory, I simply typed db.migration - the same way one would do with package names. InteliJ will display both db.migration and db/migration directories as db.migration, so while it may look correct in IntelliJ, flyway requires the latter.
Even when having your migration files in the db/migration folder, flyway won't detect it.
Then you will have to fix this by explicitly setting the locations in your application.properties (or appliocation.yml) by adding:
spring.flyway.locations=classpath:db/migration
N.B: Also you need to have at least one script to initialize flyway, you can even put an empty one. But you need to have at least one script
As #Guy suggested in his answer, I created an SQL file in the migration folder and left it empty. Named v1_0__mock_flyway.sql in the migration folder classpath:db/migration. Error solved.
If you have tried everything above and it still does not apply the migrations.
Be sure you have followed the steps in the previous answers
A db.migration folder exists in your resources folder
The sql scripts are named with respect to the correct naming convention, such as V1__init.sql
The following config exists in your application.properties/application.yml
spring.flyway.locations=classpath:db/migration
Do a clean build
-> mvn clean
Then restart your spring boot app, this worked for me.

How to get version variable from build.gradle file into java spring boot controller?

I know how to get it if version is defined in application.properties, but how do I get it from build.gradle?
The general flow is:
Define a property in your application.properties that has placeholders, i.e. gradleVersion=${version}.
Configure Gradle's default task that copies your resource files out to the build directory (called processResources) to filter / expand those properties
Read in the gradleVersion property like any other Spring property
Note that it'll require you to invoke Gradle in order to properly resolve the gradleVersion property (as Gradle is the one putting the value in there). bootRun should already depend on processResources, so if you're using that you should be fine.

Disabling JMX in a spring application

I'm trying to disable jmx so that i don't get:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException:
Error creating bean with name 'mbeanExporter'anymore.
I've found a partial answer saying that I should include this in the application.properties file:
spring.datasource.jmx-enabled=false
So I created the file with that one line. But how do I make sure that Spring acutally reads it? Do I need to edit something in spring.xml? If so, where?
You need to disable the setting in your application.properties file (it is automatically turned on if not set). Either edit or create this file:
src/main/resources/config/application.properties
That is for a maven project, so if not in maven, just put 'resources' at the same level as your java folder.
You will just need this single line in the file (it can be blank otherwise):
spring.jmx.enabled=false
If you want to add other settings, here are all the options:
http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/common-application-properties.html
In my case, it was IntelliJ.
IntelliJ have a setting "Enable JMX agent" in the run configuration. This should be unchecked to disable JMX.
If checked, this will override any setting that you make in the application via properties/yml.
Are you using spring boot? If so you just need to place the file in src\main\resources\application.properties by default
You can check sample projects here https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/tree/master/spring-boot-samples
You could try to disable jmx autoconfiguration:
#EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude={JmxAutoConfiguration.class})
