java.lang.NullPointerException what I'm doing wrong? - spring-boot

Question

I'm working on a project in which my intention is to run a Corn job and send mail to my friends to wishing them on their birthday, I was able to get email from MySQL DB and compared it to the current date but when it comes to sending an email I'm getting NullPointerException.
I'm sure there is no problem with application properties I used them with other projects as well and they are function properly

Answer 1

Try add getting in the #Autowired private JavaMailSender sender;

Answer 2

I think you have not implemented your JavaMailSender bean. Define a bean like below. Then your #Autowire annotation will work.
#Bean
public JavaMailSender getJavaMailSender()
{
JavaMailSenderImpl mailSender = new JavaMailSenderImpl();
mailSender.setHost("smtp.gmail.com");
mailSender.setPort(25);
mailSender.setUsername("admin#gmail.com");
mailSender.setPassword("password");
Properties props = mailSender.getJavaMailProperties();
props.put("mail.transport.protocol", "smtp");
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
props.put("mail.debug", "true");
return mailSender;
}
