spring config server- for local git repository

Question

I'm trying to setting up spring cloud config server

-Created git repository folder on my local F:\git-local-repository\repository

-linked it using class path link source -Added property file for my service

-After committing my changes on location F:\git-local-repository\repository

-hitting url : http://localhost:8888/limits/default

result in error : org.springframework.cloud.config.server.environment.NoSuchLabelException: No such label: master

Caused by: org.eclipse.jgit.api.errors.RefNotFoundException: Ref master cannot be resolved

Following is my main class of spring boot application

@EnableConfigServer


@SpringBootApplication
public class SpringCloudConfigServerApplication {

public static void main(String[] args) {
    SpringApplication.run(SpringCloudConfigServerApplication.class, args);


}

}

application.properties

spring.application.name=spring-cloud-config-server

server.port=8888

spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=file:////F:/git-local- 
repository/repository

expected result: will be showing application property details and other url's

Answer 1

If you are using a local directory for configuration.

Instead of

spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=file:////F:/git-local-repository/repository

Use

spring.cloud.config.server.native.search-locations=file:////F:/git-local-repository/repository

Answer 2

The issue is with extra forward slash. Please change to this :

spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=file:///F:/git-local- 
repository/repository
