SUBSCRIBE TO OUR CHANNELWhy Customize Your Error Pages?
By default, Spring Boot provides a standard "Whitelabel Error Page." While functional, it doesn't look professional to your users. In this tutorial, we show you how to replace it with a stunning, custom-designed error page that matches your application's branding.
Steps to Create Your Custom Error Page
1. Prepare Your HTML File
Create an HTML file named error.html. This is the file Spring Boot will automatically look for when something goes wrong.
2. Place it in the Right Directory
For Spring Boot to detect your custom page automatically, place the error.html file inside the src/main/resources/templates/ directory if you are using a template engine like Thymeleaf.
3. Handling Specific Errors
You can even create specific pages for specific HTTP status codes! For example:
404.htmlfor "Page Not Found"500.htmlfor "Internal Server Error"
error inside your templates directory.
Summary
Transforming your Whitelabel error page is a simple step that makes your Spring Boot application look much more polished and professional. Watch the video above for a step-by-step code walkthrough!
