Starting with Spring Framework 6.1 (which Boot 3.2.0 uses), NoResourceFoundException is thrown if there's no handler. This exception is handled by your infoshare.springboot404.handler.GlobalExceptionHandler#globalExceptionHandler and translated to a HTTP 500.

See here for more details: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/wiki/Upgrading-to-Spring-Framework-6.x#web-applications or this issue https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/issues/29491.

No any exceptions throwed under no any ExceptionHandler configed (version: 3.1.5).

[mhalbritter]

I don't understand. What's the expected outcome and what does happen? Also Boot 3.1.5 doesn't use Spring Framework 6.1.0.

[BruceAn1978]

I have not configure any global ExceptionHandler, a json responsed like below and no any exception was threw on server sider: { "timestamp": "2023-12-15 09:11:15", "path": "/time", "status": 404, "error": "Not Found", "requestId": "8a3f3980-1" }

It should throw a exception and can be caught by global ExceptionHandler, then the response can be adapted to some customized content.

@BruceAn1978 So this is different from the issue reported here? The project provided by @infoShare has @ExceptionHandler methods contributed by a controller advice. If this is a different problem, please create a new issue with a minimal sample application.
