Application on Cloud Foundry - spring

I am using Cloud Foundry and I deployed my Spring boot application on Cloud. I have bound the Mongodb Service with my application. When my application is trying to read the data from mongodb I am seeing below error.
Query failed with error code 13 and error message 'not authorized for query on cfe5cb4d-2ca8-40f3-9f83-0cc8321e8c19.ACCOUNT_DETAILS' on server IP:Port
At the same time when I am connecting to this db with application deployed on my local systems its working fine.
Please help me if I need to modify anything here in Configuration to make the application on Cloud work ?

I think you should check your VCAP_SERVICES, probably locally you are using the connection parameters directly but on Bluemix you have to use VCAP_SERVICES parsing.
Please if possible, copy and paste the code section used to connect to MongoDB.

How to configure database connection runtime in Spring Boot?

I made a new Spring Boot project using the Spring Initializr. I'm building an On-premise backend so what I'm trying to achieve is that when the user opens the jar executable and the server starts, he should be able to configure the database connection by going to localhost:8080/ in his web browser. Basically the index.html will have a form with 4 fields for IP Address, Database Name, UserName and Password. When the form is submitted spring will try to connect to the database with the provided information.
I have all my entities, repositories and controllers but currently the only way i can connect to a database is with the application.properties file, but since the user wont have access to the source, there should be a way for him to configure his database.
Thanks for your time!
I would suggest to use the Spring cloud Config server to store database related properties which is capable of picking up configuration at run time. Although it is typically configured with a Git repository, you can store them locally as pointed out in this thread.

Spring Cloud Config Server on Pivotal Cloud Foundry

I have two microservices. A Spring Cloud Config Server and another module that implements Spring Cloud Config Client. When I use the default configuration for the Spring Cloud Config Server service (localhost:8888) I can start it locally without any issues, after which I can start my other module as well, using a bootstrap.yml, it clearly finds the Config Server, fetches its properties and starts properly. All good. Now I'd like to push both of these services to Pivotal Cloud Foundry.
The Config Server service works just fine, service is up and running in my Space, and using the browser I can verify that it can still fetch the property files from the specific GitHub repository.
The problem is the other module, the client. I've replaced the default localhost:8888 in its bootstrap.yml file (spring.cloud.config.url parameter) to the now active service in the cloud using the Route bound to it and tried to start it locally. Unfortunately now it simply timeouts during startup. At this point I tried to specify longer timeouts but nothing helps.
Interesting thing is that if I directly copy the URL from the logs that timeouts I see it works properly in the browser locally. So why not in IntelliJ when I try to package the client with the changed parameter?
Sorry, I can't include much details here, but I hope maybe there is a straightforward solution that I've missed. Thanks!

Deploy my spring boot application into google cloud computer engine

I got a query to ask you all. I am looking for guides that help me deploy my spring boot application on google cloud computer engine, I type in my instance IP address when I test my spring boot application I unable to access it in REST API.
May I know do you have any guides or steps for me to follow to deploy successfully in google cloud computing engine. Why do I need to deploy in computer engine is because I deployed my angular at it and I deploy it both it seems that my angular project being replaced by my spring boot application.
Codelabs GCP / Spring series has deployment tutorials:
https://codelabs.developers.google.com/spring/
GCP has some "Getting Started" tutorials you can use here:
https://cloud.google.com/java/docs/
where the specific one for deploying a java app to GCE is here:
https://cloud.google.com/java/docs/tutorials/bookshelf-on-compute-engine
But the basic steps are as follows:
Write your Spring app
Build your Spring app
Run / test your jar locally
Push your jar to a location in Storage
Create a startup script for your GCE instance
Create a new GCE VM which uses your startup script using Console, Deployment API, or gcloud tool
After that, you need to ensure you have the proper network rules in place to be able to access your API publicly. If you do not wish to learn how to use GCE, I would suggest you look into using App Engine instead because then you do not need to learn how to deploy and instead can concentrate on your api. Here is a guide to do that

Spring Cloud Config Server + RabbitMQ

I created spring cloud config server and client and they work as expected. I have added #RefreshScope to my client and I am able to see the new properties getting fetched after hitting /refresh endpoint. But I was told that when I deploy it in cloud foundry environment , I must integrate it with RabbitMQ in order for all the instances to receive the refresh message. Is it possible to point me to a link which explains this problem and solution in detail?
Spring Cloud Bus
This is what you need in order to propagate configuration changes to all of your servers via a message broker such as RabbitMQ.
GitHub Project
Documentation
Follow the instructions in the links above you're good to go.
So I assume your application runs as single instance configuration. In that case, you don't need spring cloud bus based refresh and just hitting the {app}/actuator/refresh would be enough. Only if you scale out your app, we would need such setup with a queue like RabbitMQ or kakfa.
