Following the guidance here in the Spring Boot docs and having Actuator in the deps + this in main:
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication app = new SpringApplication(Thing2Application.class);
app.setApplicationStartup(new BufferingApplicationStartup(2048));
app.run(args);
}
The /actuator/startup endpoint is present and populated when running as a standard, JVM-based (WebFlux/RSocket) app, but not when using buildpacks to create a native image. It simply doesn't appear, no indications present.
Is /startup not yet available when creating native Boot apps? If it is, please advise of any additional steps I may have missed exposing it. If not, please let me know and I'll log a request. Thanks!
That is a Spring Native bug that is being tracked in this issue.

I have a spring boot app that I upgraded from v2.2.x to now be v2.4.3.
I saw in their documentation that there is a new actuator endpoint of /startup, however it does not exist when I start my app.
There is no special requirement according to their documentation here
I am using spring-boot-admin-starter-client v2.4.3 which provides spring-boot-actuator v2.4.3, and i even have management.endpoint.startup.enabled=true in my application.properties file.
Has anyone else used this version of spring boot and gotten this actuator enpoint to work?
You need to tweak startup configuration:
#SpringBootApplication
public class DemoApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication app = new SpringApplication(DemoApplication.class);
app.setApplicationStartup(new BufferingApplicationStartup(1000));
app.run(args);
}
}
In application.properties:
management.endpoints.web.exposure.include=startup
If you want to visualize startup events check out this tool I made some months ago https://spring-boot-startup-analyzer.netlify.app/ (look at the configuration instructions as you need to enable CORS on this endpoint)
May be you are using BootstrapApplicationListener which build the application context again but ignores the previous applicationStartup, so it sets the default, this is a bug in spring-cloud-context:3.0.0
When we use 'KeycloakSpringBootConfigResolver' for reading the keycloak configuration from Spring Boot properties file instead of keycloak.json.
Now there are guidelines to implement a multi-tenant application using keycloak by overriding 'KeycloakConfigResolver' as specified in http://www.keycloak.org/docs/2.3/securing_apps_guide/topics/oidc/java/multi-tenancy.html.
The steps defined here can only be used with keycloak.json.
How can we adapt this to a Spring Boot application such that keycloak properties are read from the Spring Boot properties file and multi-tenancy is achieved.
You can access the keycloak config you secified in your application.yaml (or application.properties) if you inject org.keycloak.representations.adapters.config.AdapterConfig into your component.
#Component
public class MyKeycloakConfigResolver implements KeycloakConfigResolver {
private final AdapterConfig keycloakConfig;
public MyKeycloakConfigResolver(org.keycloak.representations.adapters.config.AdapterConfig keycloakConfig) {
this.keycloakConfig = keycloakConfig;
}
#Override
public KeycloakDeployment resolve(OIDCHttpFacade.Request request) {
// make a defensive copy before changing the config
AdapterConfig currentConfig = new AdapterConfig();
BeanUtils.copyProperties(keycloakConfig, currentConfig);
// changes stuff here for example compute the realm
return KeycloakDeploymentBuilder.build(currentConfig);
}
}
After several trials, the only feasible option for spring boot is to have
Multiple instances of the spring boot application running with different spring 'profiles'.
Each application instance can have its own keycloak properties (as it is under different profiles) including the realm.
The challenge is to have an upgrade path for all instances for version upgrades/bug fixes, but I guess there are multiple strategies already implemented (not part of this discussion)
there is a ticket regarding this problem: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/KEYCLOAK-4139?_sscc=t
Comments for that ticket also talk about possible workarounds intervening in servlet setup of the service used (Tomcat/Undertow/Jetty), which you could try.
Note that the documentation you linked in your first comment is super outdated!
While updating my Spring Boot application to the latest build snapshot and I am seeing that none of the actuator endpoints are enabled by default. If I specify them to be enabled in application.properties, they show up.
1) Is this behavior intended? I tried searching for an issue to explain it but couldn't find one. Could somebody link me to the issue / documentation?
2) Is there a way to enable all the actuator endpoints? I often find myself using them during development and would rather not maintain a list of them inside my properties file.
Two parts to this answer:
"Is there a way to enable all the actuator endpoints?"
Add this property endpoints.enabled=true rather than enabling them individually with endpoints.info.enabled=true, endpoints.beans.enabled=true etc
Update: for Spring Boot 2.x the relevant property is:
endpoints.default.web.enabled=true
"Is this behavior intended?"
Probably not. Sounds like you might have spotted an issue with the latest milestone. If you have a reproducible issue with a Spring Boot milestone then Spring's advice is ...
Reporting Issues
Spring Boot uses GitHub’s integrated issue tracking system to record bugs and feature requests. If you want to raise an issue, please follow the recommendations below:
Before you log a bug, please search the issue tracker to see if someone has already reported the problem.
If the issue doesn’t already exist, create a new issue.
Even if we enable all the actuator endpoints as below
management.endpoints.web.exposure.include=* (In case of YAML the star character should be surrounded by double quotes as "*" because star is one of the special characters in YAML syntax)
The httptrace actuator endpoint will still not be enabled in web by default. HttpTraceRepository interface need to be implemented to enable httptrace (See Actuator default endpoints, Actuator endpoints, Actuator httptrace).
#Component
public class CustomHttpTraceRepository implements HttpTraceRepository {
AtomicReference<HttpTrace> lastTrace = new AtomicReference<>();
#Override
public List<HttpTrace> findAll() {
return Collections.singletonList(lastTrace.get());
}
#Override
public void add(HttpTrace trace) {
if ("GET".equals(trace.getRequest().getMethod())) {
lastTrace.set(trace);
}
}
}
Now the endpoints can be accessed using the url,
http://localhost:port/actuator/respective-actuator-endpoint
(Example http://localhost:8081/actuator/httptrace)
If there is a management.servlet.context-path value present in properties file then the URL will be,
http://localhost:port/<servlet-context-path>/respective-actuator-endpoint
(Example http://localhost:8081/management-servlet-context-path-value/httptrace)
UPDATE: use this only in dev environment, not in production!
Is there a way to enable all the actuator endpoints?
Using Spring Boot 2.2.2 Release, this worked for me:
On the file src/main/resources/application.properties add this:
management.endpoints.web.exposure.include=*
To check enabled endpoints go to http://localhost:8080/actuator

I am new with Spring Boot Development and currently can't move-on on the issue of how to load my spring application configuration outside the jar file.
My existing code looks like this
private ApplicationContext context;
public static void main(String[] args){
SpringApplication.run(SMPPEngine.c1ass);
new SMPPEngine();
}
public SMPPEngine(){
loadConfiguration();
process();
}
private void loadConfiguration(){
context = new ClassPatthlApplicationContext(”application-context.xm1”);
}
What I want to achieve is to have the jar file next to application-context.xml in one directory so that when there are configuration changes,I don't need to recompile my code just to reflect the changes on application-context.xml.
Based on what I've read on the internet, this is possible by using 'file://directory/application.xml' instead of classpath. But my problem on using the later is that when you place your jar and file to other location, I am required to do code change to reflect the new directory which does not solve the problem of getting away from code recompilation.
I hope I made my issue clear, and get an immediately response with you guys :)
Thanks in advance :)
There are many approaches to do this, standard, you can use spring file: prefix for accessing filesystem paths.
but with spring boot, you can specifiy it in application.properties with
spring.config.location propertiy, or you can add it in command line when run the spring boot jar file like
java -jar myproject.jar --spring.config.location=classpath:/default.properties,classpath:/override.properties
But for your codes, actually you do not need to re-create the spring context from the configuration files, but you want get the context instance, you just need to inject it
#Autowired
private ApplicationContext context;
Another approach, if you have the infrastructure. Would be to use Spring Cloud Config. After your Boot application is configured to read from it, they can be modified at anytime without recompilation or restarting.
I have a persistence layer (JPA entity objects) created and managed by Roo. It is in its own project, builds to a jar, and I have used it with a separate Spring MVC 3 web application.
I'd like to use this same Roo persistence project in another web application powered by Apache Wicket. I have seen a couple of the Roo add-ons made for Wicket, but none of them even compile (I'm not the only one to have the issue).
The problem I am encountering is that whenever I try to call one of my Roo entities from within a Wicket Page or component, I get the following exception:
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Entity manager has not been injected (is the Spring Aspects JAR configured as an AJC/AJDT aspects library?)
at com.x.domain.UserAccount_Roo_Entity.ajc$interMethod$com_x_domain_UserAccount_Roo_Entity$com_x_domain_UserAccount$entityManager(UserAccount_Roo_Entity.aj:91)
at com.x.domain.UserAccount.entityManager(UserAccount.java:1)
I have configured my application following the Spring+Wicket wiki here: https://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/spring.html
Does anyone know the 1,2,3 steps to set up a Wicket application to utilize Spring Roo entities? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
I found this in google code, sounds like its doing exactly what you want http://code.google.com/p/spring-roo-wicket-addon/
I found the solution to my problem. When I ran my wicket webapp using the Maven jetty:run goal, it worked. However, I was trying to start Jetty via Java code:
public class Start {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Server server = new Server();
SocketConnector connector = new SocketConnector();
server.start();
}
}
I was not loading the Spring ApplicationContext in this "Start" class. Once I modified this class to load the Spring application context, it worked
