I'm using Spring Boot 2.3.1 and I'm having trouble with exceptions. I want to use a @RestControllerAdvice
class to catch exceptions at a global level. I am able to catch validation errors and return a custom error response, but Spring seems to be ignoring my handlePhotoNotFoundException
method. Here is my @RestControllerAdvice
class:
DmsResponseEntityExceptionHandler.java
@RestControllerAdvice
public class DmsResponseEntityExceptionHandler extends ResponseEntityExceptionHandler {
@Override
protected ResponseEntity<Object> handleMethodArgumentNotValid(MethodArgumentNotValidException ex,
HttpHeaders headers, HttpStatus status, WebRequest request) {
ValidationErrorResponse response = new ValidationErrorResponse();
response.setHasErrors(true);
ex.getBindingResult().getAllErrors().forEach(error -> {
ValidationErrorModel errorModel = new ValidationErrorModel();
errorModel.setFieldName(((FieldError) error).getField());
errorModel.setRejectedValue(((FieldError) error).getRejectedValue());
errorModel.setErrorMessage(error.getDefaultMessage());
errorModel.setErrorCode(error.getCode());
response.getErrors().add(errorModel);
});
return ResponseEntity.badRequest().body(response);
}
@ExceptionHandler(PhotoNotFoundException.class)
@ResponseStatus(value = HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND)
public ApiErrorResponse handlePhotoNotFoundException(PhotoNotFoundException ex, HttpStatus status) {
ApiErrorResponse apiError = new ApiErrorResponse(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND, 404, ex.getLocalizedMessage(), ex.getMessage());
return apiError;
}
}
Here is the method where I am throwing the exception:
PhotoStorageServiceImp.java
@Override
public Resource getThumbnailPhotoByIndex(int index, Vehicle vehicle, DealerAccount account) {
logger.info("LOADING THUMBNAIL!!");
Photo photo = vehicle.getImages().stream().filter(image -> {
return image.getIndexNumber() == index;
}).findFirst().orElseGet(() -> new Photo());
return loadPhotoAsResource(photo.getThumbnailFileName(), vehicle, account);
}
@Override
public Resource loadPhotoAsResource(String fileName, Vehicle vehicle, DealerAccount account) throws PhotoNotFoundException {
logger.info(fileName);
logger.info(account.getId().toString());
initDirectories(vehicle.getId(), account.getId());
Path file = fileUploadDirectory.resolve(fileName).normalize();
logger.info("file " + file.toString());
Optional<Resource> optionalResource = Optional.empty();
try {
optionalResource = Optional.of(new UrlResource(file.toUri()));
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
Resource resource = optionalResource.orElseThrow(() -> new PhotoNotFoundException("Photo not found!!!"));
if(resource.exists() && resource.isReadable()) {
return resource;
} else {
throw new PhotoNotFoundException("Error retrieving photo!!!");
}
}
PhotoUploadController.java
@GetMapping("/{fileName:.+}")
public ResponseEntity<?> getPhoto(
@PathVariable String fileName,
@PathVariable Long vehicleId,
@RequestParam("size") String size,
HttpServletRequest request,
@AuthenticationPrincipal DmsUserDetails dmsUser) {
Vehicle vehicle = vehicleService.findVehicleById(vehicleId);
Optional<Resource> optionalFile = Optional.empty();
Resource resource = null;
switch (size) {
case "thumbnail":
resource = photoUploadService.getThumbnailPhotoByIndex(0, vehicle, dmsUser.getDealerAccount());
break;
case "featured":
optionalFile = photoUploadService.getFeaturedPhotoByIndex(0, vehicle, dmsUser.getDealerAccount());
break;
case "gallery":
optionalFile = photoUploadService.getGalleryPhotoByIndex(0, vehicle, dmsUser.getDealerAccount());
break;
default:
}
logger.info("file resource: " + fileName);
Resource file = optionalFile.orElseThrow(() -> new PhotoNotFoundException("Photo with filename ["+fileName+"] not found"));
// Try to determine file's content type
String contentType = null;
try {
contentType = request.getServletContext().getMimeType(file.getFile().getAbsolutePath());
} catch (IOException ex) {
logger.info("Could not determine file type.");
}
// Fallback to the default content type if type could not be determined
if(contentType == null) {
contentType = "application/octet-stream";
}
return ResponseEntity.ok()
.header(HttpHeaders.CONTENT_DISPOSITION, "inline; filename=\" + file.getFilename() + \"\\\"")
.contentType(MediaType.parseMediaType(contentType))
.body(file);
}
I am getting the error Error retrieving photo!!!
but with a stacktrace and the 500 error. For some reason, Spring is ignoring my @ExceptionHandler
annotation in the @RestControllerAdvice
class. What I would like to do is quietly log the error, return a message to the user that the image isn't available, then return a URL to a "image is missing" photo.
I'm very new to working with exceptions in Java, so help would be greatly appreciated!

UPDATE
Okay, I removed the HttpStatus
from the method and it works!! Thank you so much for the help!
Now my error response is clean!

In the Exceptionhandler
method:
@ExceptionHandler(PhotoNotFoundException.class)
@ResponseStatus(value = HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND)
public ApiErrorResponse handlePhotoNotFoundException(PhotoNotFoundException ex, HttpStatus status)
{
ApiErrorResponse apiError = new ApiErrorResponse(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND, 404, ex.getLocalizedMessage(), ex.getMessage());
return apiError;
}
The parameter HttpStatus status
is causing the issue. Remove this extra parameter.
From docs, the allowed parameters are:
- An exception argument: declared as a general Exception or as a more specific exception. This also serves as a mapping hint if the annotation itself does not narrow the exception types through its value().
- Request and/or response objects (typically from the Servlet API). You may choose any specific request/response type, e.g. ServletRequest / HttpServletRequest.
- Session object: typically HttpSession. An argument of this type will enforce the presence of a corresponding session. As a consequence, such an argument will never be null. Note that session access may not be thread-safe, in particular in a Servlet environment: Consider switching the "synchronizeOnSession" flag to "true" if multiple requests are allowed to access a session concurrently.
- WebRequest or NativeWebRequest. Allows for generic request parameter access as well as request/session attribute access, without ties to the native Servlet API.
- Locale for the current request locale (determined by the most specific locale resolver available, i.e. the configured LocaleResolver in a Servlet environment).
- InputStream / Reader for access to the request's content. This will be the raw InputStream/Reader as exposed by the Servlet API.
- OutputStream / Writer for generating the response's content. This will be the raw OutputStream/Writer as exposed by the Servlet API.
- Model as an alternative to returning a model map from the handler method. Note that the provided model is not pre-populated with regular model attributes and therefore always empty, as a convenience for preparing the model for an exception-specific view.
