Error while using Spring STS Starter Wizard

STS version: 3.7.2

Here is the error in the popup window. enter image description here

Here is the error that I see in the logs.

I tried accessing http://start.spring.io/sts through my browser and I get this message.

404 Not Found: Requested route ('start.spring.io') does not exist.

Solution

  • This issue has resolved now. It seems there was some issue with http://start.spring.io/sts. It is back up now.
