Redirect Post method HTTP -> HTTPS - HTTP Status 405 (Spring boot)

Question

Hi I am trying to have both http & https protocols available in Spring Boot web service. I was following this tutorial :https://drissamri.be/blog/java/enable-https-in-sp

Answer 1

I had the same error 405 for POST requests. I found a way to fix it.

To enable both https and http with GET and POST I had to add the following to a @Configuration class instead of the TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory as described in the post:

@Bean
public EmbeddedServletContainerCustomizer containerCustomizer() {
    return container -> {
        if (container instanceof TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory) {
            TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory containerFactory = (TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory) container;
            Connector connector = new Connector(TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory.DEFAULT_PROTOCOL);
            connector.setPort(httpPort);
            containerFactory.addAdditionalTomcatConnectors(connector);
        }
    };
}

Hope this helps for people will have the same problem in future.
