I work on a project with a complex backend structure involving Spring Boot managing repositories for CRUD operations, REST calls for specific routines and a Web app interface built using Vaadin 8. I am now migrating the whole application towards Vaadin Flow, but I encounter this strange behaviour:
I have many views in the web app working perfectly using the ‘@Route’ annotation, but one: the main view. Class is called ‘MainView’ and the annotation is ‘@Route(“”)’ but still, if I navigate to ‘http://server:port’ I don’t enter this view but, instead, all I see is a JSON dump of the databse tables with links for navigating the DB structure. Since I never built this JSON and, of course, this is not expected, I have no idea of what produces this behaviour and how to fix it! Anyone has some advice?
Did you try to load it with a different browser(e.g. Mozilla,Safari), is the error the same?
Did you try to clear your browser cache and load it again?
If the above does not solve it can you show a screenshot of the JSON dump?

Hi Ben, and thank you for your answer
I tried both 1 & 2 and yes, nothing changes. I also tried deploying the application on different OS but the result is the same.
I can attach part of the JSON as the project I’m working on is not open source, but I can tell you that the structure you see is replicated for each entity in the DB and associated classes. I tried to disable JPA and data sources autoconfiguration, but it caused only more problems in the very compilation so I don’t know if it may resolve this.
