HTML page is not loading in spring boot

I've used following link https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/developer/java/spring-framework/configure-spring-boot-starter-java-app-with-azure-active-directory

In this I was able to authorize, but when the page opens, instead of the HTML page I want to show, I see this:

browser image

But in controller I'm calling newhome.html:

if (LOG.isTraceEnabled()) {
}
LOG.trace("<<< onInit() Navigating to Home");
return "newhome";
} else {
if (LOG.isTraceEnabled()) {
}
LOG.trace("<< onInit() Navigating to Error");
return "error";
}

controller image

Controller code:

@RequestMapping(value = "/")
@ResponseBody
@PreAuthorize("hasRole('ROLE_group1')"
              + "|| hasRole('ROLE_group2')"
              + "|| hasRole('ROLE_group3')")
public String onInit(
        Model model, 
        @RequestHeader(value = "LIST", defaultValue = "group1") String groups,
        @RequestHeader(value = "USERNAME", defaultValue = "shubham") String userName) {
    
    if (userName != null && !userName.isEmpty()) {
        if (LOG.isTraceEnabled()) {
            LOG.trace("<< onInit() Navigating to Home");
            return "newhome";
        } else {
            LOG.trace("<< onInit() Navigating to Error");
            return "error";
        }
    }                
}

Here newhome and error are HTML pages.

It was working fine before adding Azure AD authentication, but now after implementing, it is just showing the of the HTML page.

I would be thankfull for any help.

Solution

  • By using @ResponseBody you are returning a simple String. I’m assuming you want to return a template page called “newhome” instead. Just remove the @ResponseBody and it should work
