Changing default URL mapping for Serving Static Content in Spring Boot

Question

My static resources stopped working as soon as I added a new Controller (non rest) in my application with the following mapping

@RequestMapping(value = \"/{p         


        

Answer 1

Sure thing. There is a spring.mvc.static-path-pattern that you can use to override that:

spring.mvc.static-path-pattern=/resources/**

will map classpath:/static/css/foo.css to /resources/css/foo.css.

(I've made that clearer in a862b6d)

Having said that, I could only strongly recommend to change your path there. Having a path variable that catches the root context is really a bad idea.
