Spring Boot Application java -jar --property override not working

I've written a Spring Boot Application. I'm running the jar, while running the jar I'm overriding the property file keys for e.g: java -jar example.jar --spring.profiles.active=test, but the key is not overriding. What could be the reason for this?

I had the same issue, but I had all the configuration correctly and still wasn't working. It even worked in the past. So, eventually the solution to make it work again was a simple clean + package of the project.

For command line arguments to override properties, you need to pass the arguments from your application's main method into SpringApplication.run.

Your main method should look something like this:

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    SpringApplication.run(YourApplication.class, args);
}
