So I’m trying to solve the Boots Boutique challenge at Java & Spring API course. I’m at step 6, where after my updates the pre-defined exercise UI should be updated with correct values, but it doesn’t update for me, and I can’t see why. I’ve reset the exercise, followed official walkthrough and checked everything again, nothing. It must be my flaw somewhere in the code, but since we don’t get to actually see error messages in these kind of challenges, I struggle to see why doesn’t it work.
Here is the link to the challenge:
https://www.codecademy.com/paths/create-rest-apis-with-spring-and-java/tracks/spring-apis-data-with-jpa/modules/spring-data-and-jpa/projects/spring-data-jpa-the-boots-bootique
Here’s my application.properties file:
server.port=4001
spring.jackson.default-property-inclusion = NON_NULL
spring.jpa.defer-datasource-initialization= true
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=create-drop
spring.jpa.hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto=create
spring.jpa.hibernate.use-new-id-generator-mappings=false
spring.datasource.initialization-mode=always
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:h2:file:~/boots.db
Here is my Boot.java:
package com.codecademy.boots.entities;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.Table;
import javax.persistence.Column;
import javax.persistence.Enumerated;
import javax.persistence.EnumType;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue;
import com.codecademy.boots.enums.BootType;
@Entity
@Table(name="BOOTS")
public class Boot {
@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private Integer id;
@Enumerated(EnumType.STRING)
@Column(name="TYPE")
private BootType type;
@Column(name="SIZE")
private Float size;
@Column(name="QUANTITY")
private Integer quantity;
@Column(name="MATERIAL")
private String material;
public Integer getId() {
return this.id;
}
public void setId(Integer id) {
return this.id = id;
}
public BootType getType() {
return this.type;
}
public void setType(BootType type) {
return this.type = type;
}
public Float getSize() {
return this.size;
}
public void setSize(Float size) {
return this.size = size;
}
public Integer getQuantity() {
return this.quantity;
}
public void setQuantity(Integer quantity) {
return this.quantity = quantity;
}
public String getMaterial() {
return this.material;
}
public String setMaterial(String material) {
return this.material = material;
}
}
Here is BootRepository:
package com.codecademy.boots.repositories;
import java.util.List;
import org.springframework.data.repository.CrudRepository;
import com.codecademy.boots.entities.Boot;
import com.codecademy.boots.enums.BootType;
public interface BootRepository extends CrudRepository<Boot, Integer> {
}

} else {

}
}
}
I simply can’t see anything except for the white screen when I try to reach localhost:4001/, localhost, localhost:4001/api/v1/boots/ or anything like this. Can you help me to find the flaw in my code?
