[FIXED] Why got 404 while add project name in entry point url

Issue

If run project with Spring security, the entry point URL is:

http://localhost:8099/login

Meanwhile I need to put global project name in entry point URL as follows:

http://localhost:8099/pojoname/login

Here down is my Spring Security Configuration file:

@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
      http
        .csrf().disable()
        .authorizeRequests()
        .requestMatchers(PathRequest.toStaticResources().atCommonLocations()).permitAll()
        .antMatchers("/login").permitAll()
        .antMatchers("/register", "/registration", "/editProfile").permitAll()
        .anyRequest().authenticated()
        .and()
        .formLogin()
            .loginPage("/login").permitAll()
            .usernameParameter("email")
        .and()
        .logout()
            .permitAll();
}

Solution

The requested feature is what is know as web context (or formerly Servlet context in a Servlet container work).

This is supported out of the box within Spring Boot and can be switched / activated using the configuration property server.servlet.contextPath with the desired value.

Inside your application.properties file, add below line:

• For a version < Spring Boot 2.0:

    server.contextPath=/pojoname
  

• For a version > Spring Boot 2.0:

    server.servlet.contextPath=/pojoname
