Spring Security circular bean dependency

Question

I\'m currently working on a Vaadin spring application. According to the app specifications, authentication/authorization of the users must be completed by querying database

Answer 1

Your PasswordEncoder bean definition is in WebSecurityConfig which needs JdbcUserDetailsServices. JdbcUserDetailsServices again is dependent on JdbcAccountRepository which needs PasswordEncoder. So the cycle forms. A simple solution is to take out the PasswordEncoder bean definition out of WebSecurityConfig. Even inside SecurityConfiguration class will solve the cyclic problem.
