rest - Spring MVC Spring Security and Error Handling -

i'm using responseentityexceptionhandler global handling error , working normal, except want handle wrong request spring. logic overriding handlenosuchrequesthandlingmethod should handle this, insted of handling get

http status 404 -

type status report

message

description requested resource not available.

apache tomcat/7.0.37

i got when enable debuging in console:

warn : org.springframework.web.servlet.pagenotfound - no mapping found http request uri

just clarify handling mean i'm returning json.

any idea how handle this?

the reason right there, in dispatcherservlet class; sends error response without bothering call exception handler (by default).

since 4.0.0.release behaviour can changed throwexceptionifnohandlerfound parameter:

set whether throw nohandlerfoundexception when no handler found request. exception can caught handlerexceptionresolver or @exceptionhandler controller method.

xml configuration:

<servlet>     <servlet-name>rest-dispatcher</servlet-name>     <servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.dispatcherservlet</servlet-class>     <init-param>         <param-name>throwexceptionifnohandlerfound</param-name>         <param-value>true</param-value>     </init-param> </servlet> 

java-based configuration:

public class appinitializer extends abstractannotationconfigdispatcherservletinitializer {      void customizeregistration(servletregistration.dynamic registration) {         registration.setinitparameter("throwexceptionifnohandlerfound", "true");     }     ... } 

then nohandlerfoundexception can handled this:

@controlleradvice public class globalexceptionhandler extends responseentityexceptionhandler {      @override     responseentity handlenohandlerfoundexception(nohandlerfoundexception ex,             httpheaders headers, httpstatus status, webrequest request) {         // return whatever want     } }
