6,791 PointsWhitelabel Error Page
Hey, after following this tutorial I no longer get a working webpage after restarting my server.
I followed the instructions and created a HTML file with all the closing tags. Removed the @RequestMapping annotation and I get a Whitelabel Error Page.
When I put that annotation back, I get a string called 'home' appear, so this got me thinking its something wrong with my java finding my html file? It's in the src/main/resources/templates folder.
Any advice?
I've meticulously checked my code, I don't see any spelling or syntax mistakes. Also I've updated my gradle file to use the most current versions of thymeleaf AND spring-boot, as I got a ton of errors when I removed that file.
" dependencies { compile group: 'org.thymeleaf', name: 'thymeleaf', version: '3.0.11.RELEASE' compile group: 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-starter-web', version: '2.1.4.RELEASE' } "
EDIT: Code
'''Java plugins { id 'java' id 'idea' id 'eclipse' id "org.springframework.boot" version "2.0.3.RELEASE" }
group 'com.teamtreehouse' version '1.0-SNAPSHOT'
sourceCompatibility = 1.8
repositories { mavenCentral() }
dependencies { compile group: 'org.thymeleaf', name: 'thymeleaf', version: '3.0.11.RELEASE' compile group: 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-starter-web', version: '2.1.4.RELEASE' } '''
'''Java package com.teamtreehouse.giflib;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication; import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration; import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
@EnableAutoConfiguration @ComponentScan public class AppConfig { public static void main(String[] args) { SpringApplication.run(AppConfig.class, args); } }
'''Java package com.teamtreehouse.giflib.controller;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ResponseBody;
@Controller public class GifController { @RequestMapping("/") public String listGifs() { return "home"; } } '''

6,791 PointsFixed after enquiring on Reddit. Make sure you use the spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf dependency, as found on MVN repository.
plugins { id 'java' id 'idea' id 'eclipse' id "org.springframework.boot" version "2.1.4.RELEASE" id "io.spring.dependency-management" version "1.0.7.RELEASE" }
group 'com.teamtreehouse' version '1.0-SNAPSHOT'
sourceCompatibility = 1.8
repositories { mavenCentral() }
dependencies { compile group: 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf', version: '2.1.4.RELEASE' compile group: 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-starter-web', version: '2.1.4.RELEASE' }
works for me

I wasn't able to make it work and couldn't find any solution and finally with your code I was able to finally make it!
Thanks man.

6,791 Pointsno problem Sergio Leon , the biggest lesson I took from this course is don't rush through it. A lot of it is outdated, take your time, find the right dependencies, find the workarounds and make sure your program is working before starting the next tutorial :)

47,913 PointsCan you post your code here, or better yet, a snapshot of your workspace? We can't really do anything to help without it
