Automatic refresh of Config Clients not working in Spring Boot 2

Question

I am trying to migrate a simple example code with Spring Cloud Config Server and RabbitMQ as Spring Cloud Bus (based on Spring Boot 1.5.22.RELEASE and Spring Cloud Brixton.SR7) to Spring Boot 2.2.6.RELEASE and Spring Cloud Hoxton.SR3. The example consists of a Config Server, a Config Client, GitLab as SCM and RabbitMQ(3.8 - Erlang 22.1.5). The code is compiling, starting up, the push webhook is triggered and can also be seen in the server's and client's log.

The problem is that the property updated in Git is not updated in the client. On the base of the Spring Boot 1.5.22.RELEASE and Spring Cloud Brixton.SR7 it works reliable. But if I do curl -X POST http://localhost:8889/actuator/bus-refresh manually, the property will be updated.

What can be the problem or which property have I forgotten to configure?

Here is my configuration/code:

GitLab (started as Docker container) Push WebHook: http://user:password@localhost:8889/monitor

RabbitMQ (started as Docker container) no particular configuration

Answer 1

Setting the property spring.cloud.bus.id in bootstrap.properties fixed the problem: https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-bus/issues/124#issuecomment-423960553

Not really pretty but it works.
