Spring cloud config server not able to read property file

My Spring cloud config server is throwing below error when trying to access the property file content using http://localhost:8080/application/default

There was an unexpected error (type=Internal Server Error, status=500).
Could not construct context for config=application profile=default label= includeOrigin=false; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: ConfigFileApplicationListener [org.springframework.boot.context.config.ConfigFileApplicationListener] is deprecated and can only be used as an EnvironmentPostProcessor

My application.properties in config server looks like this

spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=/Users/joe/MyProgs/Java/spring-ws/config and I even tried with this spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=${HOME}/MyProgs/Java/spring-ws/config

Content of the property file in the local git repository is

martin:
    name: Martin D'vloper
    job: Developer
    skill: Elite

Please let me know what I am doing wrong.

Solution

  • It looks like this deprecation message was added just a couple of weeks ago in this issue. These changes are not even released yet (marked for release in a future milestone version of Spring Boot 2.4.0-M2).

    What version of Spring Boot are you using? I suppose you have a SNAPSHOT dependency somewhere in your build configuration.
