Question

I\'m having some problems adding spring security. It shows an error that says:No bean named \'springSecurityFilterChain\' is defined

public class WebInitiali         


        

Answer 1

Try registering the security filter this way

FilterRegistration.Dynamic securityFilter = servletContext.addFilter("springSecurityFilterChain", DelegatingFilterProxy.class);
    securityFilter.addMappingForUrlPatterns(null, false, "/*");

And add the @Import({WebSecurityConfig.class}) in the configuration class you declare as your rootContext in WebInitializer in your case is in App.java
