I am working on java, but I found the following warning message:

Request method 'POST' not supported

Is there any way to stabilize the issue “request method ‘post’ not supported”? I read a lot of topics about this, but all of them were trying to install anything. Is this the correct way, or any recommendation for me? Please find the beginning command below:

@RestController
 @RequestMapping("/employeeapp/employees")
 public class EmployeeController {
 
  private final EmployeeService service;
 
  @Autowired
  public EmployeeController(EmployeeService service) {
  this.service = service;
  }
 
  @RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.POST)
  @ResponseStatus(HttpStatus.CREATED)
  public
  @ResponseBody
  Employee create(@RequestBody @Valid Employee employeeEntry) {
  return service.create(employeeEntry);
  }
 
  @RequestMapping(value = "{id}", method = RequestMethod.DELETE)
  public Employee delete(@PathVariable("id") long id) {
  return service.delete(id);
  }
 
  @RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
  public List<Employee> findAll() {
  return service.findAll();
  }
 
  @RequestMapping(value = "{id}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
  public Employee findById(@PathVariable("id") long id) {
  return service.findById(id);
  }
 
  @RequestMapping(value = "{id}", method = RequestMethod.PUT)
  public Employee update(@RequestBody @Valid Employee employeeEntry) {
  return service.update(employeeEntry);
  }
 
  @ExceptionHandler
  @ResponseStatus(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND)
  public void handleEmployeeNotFound(EmployeeNotFoundException exception) {
  }
 
 }

@SpringBootApplication
 public class Application {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
  SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
  }
 }

{
  "id" : 1,
  "name" : "nikhil",
  "dept" : "DCX"
 }

If your @SpringBootApplication annotated class and controller are in different packages it does not pick it by default class scan.

It works in almost all demos because bootstrapping class (@SpringBootApplication annotated class) and rest controller class reside in the same package and loaded to spring context.

// Make your class available to spring like this

@SpringBootApplication(scanBasePackageClasses = {GreetingController.class}) public class BootPocApplication {

OR // Give the base package name as this

@SpringBootApplication(scanBasePackages = {"com.tryout"}) public class BootPocApplication {

The cause: The HTTP response with the 405 Status Code – a client error indicating that the server does not accept the method/verb supplied in the request – is what you’re getting. The cause for this error, as the name implies, is that the request was sent via an unsupported method.

Solution: You can avoid and correct errors in the following ways:

Spring boot shows all available methods on the console as you deploy the application. Check whether the POST method is being presented or not. Make sure there aren’t any inconsistencies with other services. GET/PUT/POST
If certain services aren’t available, try putting ‘/’ before the GET, PUT, or POST commands.
Attaching an exception handler to examine the POJO structure based on the client input request.
Check the URL to see whether there is a global path for the app/name given in the setup.
Remove the headers – Content-Type from the request header and re-submit the request.

To see if your controller is being considered by the spring application, use the following code:

import java.util.Arrays;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;

@SpringBootApplication
public class Application {

public static void main(String[] args) {
ApplicationContext ctx = SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);

System.out.println("Let's inspect the beans provided by Spring Boot:");

String[] beanNames = ctx.getBeanDefinitionNames();
Arrays.sort(beanNames);
for (String beanName : beanNames) {
System.out.println(beanName);
}
}

}
