I use Spring Boot for my apllication and currently everything works fine. Now I have implemented Spring AOP into this application:
@Aspect
@Component
public class ErrorAspectRestService {
public ErrorAspectRestService() {
}
@Before("execution(* com....security.xauth.XAuthTokenFilter.testMethod())")
public void logServiceAccess() {
System.out.println("method invoked");
}
}
When I start the application with the advice above than I get the following exception:
2015-06-10 11:17:19.301 ERROR 3140 --- [ost-startStop-1] o.a.c.c.C.[Tomcat].[localhost].[/] : Exception starting filter XAuthTokenFilter

If I comment @Configuration
than everything works fine but for sure the method logServiceAccess is not invoked.
Can you remove
Configuration
annotation? I don't see the purpose for it. This can fix your error.
