org.springframework.web.HttpRequestMethodNotSupportedException: Request method 'GET' not supported
10:21 02 Jun 2020

I am studying spring boot and spring jpa . I was able to successfully read and write into the database, but the problem occurs while updating the data.

There was an unexpected error (type=Method Not Allowed, status=405).
Request method 'GET' not supported
org.springframework.web.HttpRequestMethodNotSupportedException: Request method 'GET' not supported

I am trying to update data of table : Person ( Id, Name , Age) using a html form. It accepts the data, and using spring jpa I am trying to update it in MySQL database.

I am getting the following at console when trying to update the data, after submitting the form

> WARN 5176 --- [nio-8080-exec-1]
> .w.s.m.s.DefaultHandlerExceptionResolver : Resolved
> [org.springframework.web.HttpRequestMethodNotSupportedException:

My code is here : updateperson form :

 
    
    
        
        Title
    
    
    

Enter new details

Id :
