ehcache giving error after migrating spring boot from 1.5.12 to 1.5.13 - spring-boot

Question

I have configured spring boot 1.5.12 + ehcache and everything was working fine until I upgraded spring boot to 1.5.13
application.yml has the below entry
spring:
cache:
jcache:
provider: org.ehcache.jsr107.EhcacheCachingProvider
config: ehcache.xml
my ehcache.xml is located under resources directory
The error I am receiving is:
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cache configuration does not exist 'ServletContext resource [/ehcache.xml]'

It looks like spring boot has started searching for ehcache.xml using servletContext resolver.
p.s. I had made no change in any of source code except the spring boot upgrade to 1.5.13
Am I missing some required configuration here?

Answer 1

I had figured out the fix for this problem. We need to specify the prefix classpath: with the file name to make it work.
My application.yml would look like this now
spring:
cache:
jcache:
provider: org.ehcache.jsr107.EhcacheCachingProvider
config: classpath:ehcache.xml
Hope that helps.
