nested exception is java.io.IOException: Could not start process: <EOF>

Hello,

I’ve seen other issues with the same exception but thought this one is worth bringing to your attention as it looks like the cause is very different, and a lot simpler to resolve.

I am using spring-boot-dependencies:2.1.4.RELEASE

When these two properties are set:

spring.data.mongodb.host= spring.data.mongodb.port=

The following exception is thrown: Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'embeddedMongoServer' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/mongo/embedded/EmbeddedMongoAutoConfiguration.class]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.io.IOException: Could not start process: <EOF>

Regards, Warren

@majitospost Make sure in your application.properties to not have spring.data.mongodb.host= spring.data.mongodb.port=

set. I had this issue, but I fixed it by commenting these two out.

thanks for your solution, it does work. But what should be the most proper solution? The situation is that I want to use the embedded mongo while testing, but to use the local mogo server while running the application.
The gradle build complains when I leave the spring.data.mongodb.host in the application.yml
