Spring Boot Disable /error mapping

Question

I am creating an API with Spring Boot so wish to disable the /error mapping.

I have set the following props in application.properties:

server.error.whitelabel.enabled=false spring.mvc.throw-exception-if-no-handler-found=true spring.resources.add-mappings=false 

However when I hit /error I get:

HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1 Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8 Transfer-Encoding: chunked Date: Wed, 03 Aug 2016 15:15:31 GMT Connection: close  {"timestamp":1470237331487,"status":999,"error":"None","message":"No message available"} 

Required Result

HTTP/1.1 404 Internal Server Error Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1 

Answer 1

You can disable the ErrorMvcAutoConfiguration :

@SpringBootApplication @EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude = {ErrorMvcAutoConfiguration.class}) public class SpringBootLauncher { 

Or through Spring Boot's application.yml/properties:

spring.autoconfigure.exclude: org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.web.servlet.error.ErrorMvcAutoConfiguration 

If this is not an option for you, you may also extend Spring's ErrorController with your own implementation:

@RestController public class MyErrorController implements ErrorController {      private static final String ERROR_MAPPING = "/error";      @RequestMapping(value = ERROR_MAPPING)     public ResponseEntity<String> error() {         return new ResponseEntity<String>(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND);     }      @Override     public String getErrorPath() {         return ERROR_MAPPING;     } 

Note: Use one of the above techniques (disabled auto-configuration or implement the error-controller). Both together will not work, as mentioned in the comments.

Attributes should be specified via @SpringBootApplication. Example in Kotlin:

@SpringBootApplication(exclude = [ErrorMvcAutoConfiguration::class]) class SpringBootLauncher {
