Getting UnsatisfiedDependency exception(No qualifying bean of type found) even though bean is defined and using Service annotation

Question

I am trying to run my basic restapi application which has some pojo defined and using service layer to fetch data from h2 database. But when i run the application, i am getting bean not found for one of the service object.

ProjectResController.java

    @RestController
@RequestMapping(ProjectRestController.ENDPOINT)
@Api(produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE, tags = "Project")
public class ProjectRestController {

    public static final String ENDPOINT = "/api/v2/projects";
    public static final String ENDPOINT_ID = "/{id}";
    public static final String PATH_VARIABLE_ID = "id";
    public static final String ENDPOINT_SYSTEM_ID = "/{systemId}/projects";

    private static final String API_PARAM_ID = "ID";
    
    @Autowired
    private SdlcService sdlcService;

    @Autowired
    private ProjectService projectService;

    @ApiOperation("Get a Project")
    @GetMapping(ENDPOINT_ID)
    public Project getProject(
            @ApiParam(name = API_PARAM_ID, required = true) @PathVariable(PATH_VARIABLE_ID) final long projectId) {
        return projectService.getProject(projectId);
    }

    @ApiOperation("Create a Project")
    @PostMapping(ENDPOINT_SYSTEM_ID)
    public Project createProject(@PathVariable(value = "systemId") Long systemId, @Valid @RequestBody Project project) {
        sdlcService.findById(systemId).ifPresent(project::setSdlcSystem);
        return projectService.saveProject(project);

Error starting ApplicationContext. To display the conditions report re-run your application with 'debug' enabled. 2020-09-12 19:35:17.256 ERROR 73258 --- [ main] osbdLoggingFailureAnalysisReporter :

Description:

Field sdlcService in com.restapi.restapi.Controller.ProjectRestController required a bean of type 'com.restapi.restapi.Service.SdlcService' that could not be found.

The injection point has the following annotations: - @org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired(required=true)

Action:

Consider defining a bean of type 'com.restapi.restapi.Service.SdlcService' in your configuration.

Answer 1

You should annotate SdlcServiceImpl (and not it's interface) with @Service .

From @Service javadoc :

Indicates that an annotated class is a "Service" (...)

This annotation serves as a specialization of @Component, allowing for implementation classes to be autodetected through classpath scanning.
