Problem with Spring Boot

[Alejandro Barrero]

I am developing a Spring Boot application and everything has been working fine for some weeks; but suddenly I cannot run the application in the debugger (Boot Workbench) although it works fine for running. The problem is that I am getting a ClassNotFoundException in class java.net.URLClassLoader (line 382). I have exhausted my search on the Internet but haven't found a solution. I thought that it was a problem caused by an update to Spring Boot and tried running the original version but to no avail.

Can you give more details? What class is it not finding? Show us parts of the stacktrace that you think might be relevant.

[Alejandro Barrero]

Thank you Junilu for your prompt reply;unfortunately I don't get a stack trace, I cannot see the name in the Variables View and I cannot write code in the URLClassLoader class. If anyone could instruct me I would post more information.

[Junilu Lacar]

Ok, are you using an XML file to define your beans or are you using annotations and then @Autowired? You have to provide more information than just ClassNotFoundException and a line number.

[Alejandro Barrero]

No  XML or annotations so far; in the first place the problem doesn't occur when the application is run, it happens when the application is debugged. I think that the class is the Boot starter class because the problem happens immediately after clicking on the debug button. Yes, I should have mentioned this, my apology. I am still working on the application, I just can't debug the controllers; it is taking me time because I am learning Thymeleaf, but I don't think that's the problem.

[Alejandro Barrero]

The problem is happening with other application, so it's definitely not my code.

[Alejandro Barrero]

Strange solution, I had to copy all to a new workspace.

[Junilu Lacar]

Sounds like it was either an environment or configuration issue, or combination of both. Thanks for posting an update.
