Hello,

I’m sure this is a stupid question but I’ve followed the steps on http://www.baeldung.com/swagger-2-documentation-for-spring-rest-api to get the swagger / swagger ui to work.

My docket config looks as follows:

  @Bean
  public Docket mainConfig() {
    return new Docket(DocumentationType.SWAGGER_2)
        .select().apis(RequestHandlerSelectors.any())
        .paths(PathSelectors.any())
        .build()
        .pathMapping("/swagger")
        .directModelSubstitute(LocalDate.class, String.class)
        .genericModelSubstitutes(ResponseEntity.class);
  }

With this I can go to /v2/api-docs to see the json version. However I can’t find the UI endpoint. When going to http://localhost:8080/swagger-resources/ I only see:

[
{
"name": "default",
"url": "/v2/api-docs",
"swaggerVersion": "2.0",
"location": "/v2/api-docs"
}
]

I’ve tried:

• http://localhost:8080/swagger-ui.html
• http://localhost:8080/v2/api/swagger-ui.html
• http://localhost:8080/swagger-resources/swagger-ui.html
• http://localhost:8080/api/swagger-ui.html

To no avail.

Thank you!

I have encountered this problem before and the problem was in the below line in application.properties spring.resources.add-mappings=false

remove it or change it’s value to true

Hello @nWidart,

I was facing the same issue, but I’ve figured out what was happening in my case…

Although I see you have fixed the problem already, for those whom this suggestion hasn’t worked, if you’re using @EnableMvc in any java config file, remove it. I’ve not quite believed at the beginning, but it has worked.

Give it a try…

Regards,

Luciano Daher.
