How to make Spring server to start even if database is down?

Question

I\'m using a Spring Boot(1.4.7) & MyBatis.

spring.main1.datasource.url=jdbc:mariadb://192.168.0.11:3306/testdb?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=utf8&         


        

Answer 1

You can set:

spring.datasource.continue-on-error=true

in your application.properties.

According to the Spring Boot 2.2.4 user guide:

By default, Spring Boot enables the fail-fast feature of the Spring JDBC initializer. This means that, if the scripts cause exceptions, the application fails to start. You can tune that behavior by setting spring.datasource.continue-on-error.
