Error when i try to pass this as the parameter for constructor for the user Arrays.asList(new Role("ROLE_USER")));

[HoodLegend]

@Override public User save(UserRegistrationDto registrationDto) { User user = new User(registrationDto.getFirstName(), registrationDto.getPassword(), Arrays.asList(new Role("ROLE_USER"))); return userRepository.save(user); }

[Gokulviper]

@Override public User save(UserRegistrationDto registrationDto) { User user = new User(registrationDto.getFirstName(), registrationDto.getLastName(), registrationDto.getEmail(), passwordEncoder.encode(registrationDto.getPassword()), Arrays.asList(new Role("ROLE_USER")));

    return userRepository.save(user);
}

//try like this

This error is because internally, spring will automatically add the prefix ROLE_ to the USER role defined so since it's been specified already, it'll throw an error. So remove that prefix from the passed role.
