Deploying on tomcat problem
Hi to all,
i'm new to Vaadin framework. I'm using spring boot, maven, vaadin and jpa. Starting the app with embedded server works just fine. Deploying it on a tomcat causes an error. I attached VaadinUI file where are my navigator settings. Btw. app works on tomcat also without navigator. You can see error in catalina.out file. Does someone has an idea what i'm doing wrong?
Thanks
You just need to add an empty constructor, as the exception message says, and a super() call should be placed as well (in both constructors).
public VaadinUI()
{
super();
}
That was the frist thing i tried and i got

You should fix nullpointer access in your code:
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at at.e.screen.hello.gui.SecurePage.listCustomers(SecurePage.java:83)
NullPointerExeption is coused by empty jpa repository(LocationRepository) which is in this case not autowired.
@Autowired
public VaadinUI(LocationRepository repo) {
super();
this.locationRepository = repo;
}
Non-arg constructor is initialized
public VaadinUI(){
super();
}
Is there another way to wire jpa repositories with vaadinUI?
i followed this tutorial https://spring.io/guides/gs/crud-with-vaadin/
Thanks
so what happens if you autowire LocationRepository directly?
@Autowired
public LocationRepository locationRepository;
you also should avoid the static modifier in your variables, which typically leads to problems here...
public static Customer AUTH;
public static LocationRepository locationRepository;
Try making your servlet extend SpringVaadinServlet instead of VaadinServlet; BTW if you are using vaadin spring boot starter i think you don't need to extend the servlet.

Thanks Marco, extending a SpringVaadinServlet solved the problem.
Thanks a lot
