I am trying to execute Spring boot application hosted on a tomcat server online. The issue is when I try to get, delete or post data, a user controller it generates this message.
{
"timestamp": "2021-01-24T06:45:42.144+00:00",
"status": 404,
"error": "Not Found",
"message": "",
"path": "/tool/api/v1/users"
}
the weird issue is that when I run the server locally http://localhost:8080/api/v1/users I get data
but when I try hosting the war file and hitting the endpoint http://31.134.12.356:9080/tool/api/v1/usersi end up with the error above.
My Users Controller
@RequestMapping("/api/v1")
@RestController
public class UserController {
@Autowired
private UserRepository userRepository;
@Autowired
private RoleRepository roleRepository;
@GetMapping("/users")
public Iterable<User> getAllUsers() {
return userRepository.findAll();
}
@GetMapping("/users/{id}")
public User getUserById(@PathVariable("id") String id) {
return userRepository.findById(id).get();
}
@GetMapping("/users/{username}")
public User getUserByUsername(@PathVariable("username") String username) {
return userRepository.findByUsername(username).get();
}
@PostMapping(value = "/users")
public ResponseEntity<Object> saveUser(@RequestBody SaveUserRequest userRequest) {
//save user details
User user = new User(userRequest.getUsername(),
userRequest.getDisplayName(), userRequest.getEmail(), userRequest.getIdentityProvider());
Set<String> strRoles = userRequest.getRole();
Set<Role> roles = new HashSet<>();
if (strRoles == null) {
Role userRole = roleRepository.findByName(ERole.ROLE_USER)
.orElseThrow(() -> new RuntimeException("Role is not found."));
roles.add(userRole);
} else {
strRoles.forEach(role -> {
switch (role) {
case "admin":
Role adminRole = roleRepository.findByName(ERole.ROLE_ADMIN)
.orElseThrow(() -> new RuntimeException("Role is not found."));
roles.add(adminRole);
break;
case "mod":
Role modRole = roleRepository.findByName(ERole.ROLE_MODERATOR)
.orElseThrow(() -> new RuntimeException("Role is not found."));
roles.add(modRole);
break;
default:
Role userRole = roleRepository.findByName(ERole.ROLE_USER)
.orElseThrow(() -> new RuntimeException("Role is not found."));
roles.add(userRole);
}
});
}
user.setRoles(roles);
user.setId(java.util.UUID.randomUUID().toString());
user.setLastLoggedOn(new Date());
userRepository.save(user);
return ResponseEntity.ok(user);
}
}
The weird issue is that I have other endpoints and they are working fine, the users rest api is the one not being found. I have added tool in the api as it is the name of the war file, I have multiple war files running on the tomcat.
