Why is Spring telling me the controller is an unknown entity upon saving a user?

After a few hours of running against the wall with this code, I’ve just about had it. This error is as indescriptive as can be.

My User entity:

User service and repository essentials:

https://pastebin.com/acYUF7sN

package cc.serviceops.account.dao;
import cc.serviceops.account.User;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaRepository;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.Query;
import org.springframework.data.repository.query.Param;
import java.util.List;

public interface UserRepository extends JpaRepository<User, Integer> {}

=================
other file
=================
@Override
public User saveGuest(User user) {
    String password = passwordEncoder.encode(user.getPassword());
    user.setPassword(password);
    return userRepository.save(user);
}

Long story short is that the User object should only need a mail address, password and “enabled” field, which is by default true. Yet, for some reason when this bare minimum of info is passed to the database to make a user, I get an error saying TicketController is an “unknown entity”. Even though TicketController shouldn’t have anything to do with the database:

SignupServiceImpl:

@SpringBootApplication starter:

TicketController has a @Controller annotation, User has an @Entity, SignupServiceImpl has a @Service and still it complains about TicketController not being a known entity…

Answer

I think the reason is that you are creating an anonymous class in your code.

 activeUser = new User() {{
        setEmail(anonymousTicketDto.getCreatorEmail());
        setPassword(anonymousTicketDto.getPassword());
    }};

needs to be something like

 activeUser = new User();
 activeUser.setEmail(anonymousTicketDto.getCreatorEmail());
 activeUser.setPassword(anonymousTicketDto.getPassword());

Some Background Information about anonymous classes in Java: https://www.baeldung.com/java-anonymous-classes

A cool tool that might ease the transformation between DTO and Entity in the Controller (I personally use it in some projects and really like it): https://mapstruct.org/
