Spring Cloud Configuration Server not working with local properties file

All my code is here https://github.com/spencergibb/communityanswers/tree/so27131143

src/main/java/Application.java

@Configuration@EnableAutoConfiguration@EnableConfigServerpublic class Application {    public static void main(String[] args) {        SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);    }}

src/main/resources/application.yml

spring:  application:     name: myconfigserver  profiles:     active: nativemy:  property: myvalue

src/main/resources/myapp.yml

my:  otherprop: myotherval

To get the properties for an app named myapp, do the following.

curl http://localhost:8080/myapp/default

{     "name": "default",     "label": "master",     "propertySources": [          {                "name": "applicationConfig: [classpath:/myapp.yml]",                "source": {                     "my.otherprop": "myotherval"                }          },          {                "name": "applicationConfig: [classpath:/application.yml]",                "source": {                     "spring.application.name": "myconfigserver",                     "spring.profiles.active": "native",                     "my.property": "myvalue"                }          }     ]}

I am able to read configuration for apple-service(Test Micro Service) using Spring config server.

Example application.yml of spring config application

spring:    profiles:        active: native    cloud:        config:            server:                native:                    searchLocations: classpath:config/server:  port: 8888endpoints:    restart:      enabled: true

Put your .properties or .yml files inside src\main\resources\config folder. Make sure name of this files should match spring.application.name of your micro service.

For example if spring.application.name=apple-service then property file should be apple-service.properties in src\main\resources\config folder.

Example bootstrap.yml of apple-service:

spring:  application:    name: apple-servicecloud:  config:    uri: http://localhost:8888

Here is what I did:

following https://medium.com/@danismaz.furkan/spring-cloud-config-with-file-system-backend-c18ae16b7ad5

1) !!dont forget your VM options!!:

-Dspring.profiles.active=native

(in Netbeans : configserver->project->properties>Run->VM options

2) Either in application.properties

#spring.cloud.config.server.native.searchLocations=file:///C:/tmp/configspring.cloud.config.server.native.searchLocations=classpath:/config

or applications.yml

spring:    cloud:         config:            server:                native:                    search-locations  : file:///C:/tmp/config                    #search-locations : classpath:/config

Notes:

n1: search-locations and searchLocations both work

n2: file:/// => hard file path

Like

c:/temp/config/           app-admin.yml           app-admin-develop.yml           .... 

n3: for your profile config files

classpath:/

Like

Other sources/src/main/resources/config/app-admin.yml

n4: I couldnt made file paths work without setting the vm options. Dont forget! Just setting spring.profiles.active=native in your application config does not do the trick for me

n5: example http queries

http://localhost:8998/app-admin/default/yml

gives app-admin.yml

http://localhost:8998/app-admin/develop/yml

gives app-admin-develop.yml
