Question

 @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
  @ExceptionHandler(HttpMessageNotReadableException.class)
  public final ResponseEntity<Object> handleAllExceptions(HttpMessageNotReadableException ex, WebRequest request) {

    return new ResponseEntity(HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST);
  }

but it show a message:

Error creating bean with name 'handlerExceptionResolver' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/web/servlet/WebMvcAutoConfiguration$EnableWebMvcConfiguration.class].

Can some one help me how to fix it

Answer 1

@EnableAutoConfiguration does auto configs for WebMvc, so please exclude the class due to which the error is throwing up.

   @EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude = {DataSourceAutoConfiguration.class,WebMvcAutoConfiguration.class })

I hope this resolves your issue.
