Spring Boot Actuator empty response-CodePudding

Spring Boot app with just below configuration for web security:

@EnableWebSecurity
@Configuration
public class WebSecurityConfiguration extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter
{
   @Override
   public void configure(WebSecurity web) throws Exception
   {
      web.ignoring().antMatchers("/actuator/**");
   }

   @Override
   protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception
   {
      http.authorizeRequests().antMatchers("/").permitAll();

      http.csrf().disable();
   }
}

application.properites:

management.endpoints.web.exposure.include=health,info,loggers
management.endpoints.web.base-path=/actuator
management.endpoint.health.show-details=always

After starting the app I can see in the logs:

[ main] o.s.b.a.e.web.EndpointLinksResolver : Exposing 3 endpoint(s) beneath base path '/actuator'

but then:

bash-5.1$ curl -I --header 'Content-Type: application/json' -X "GET" "http://localhost:8083/actuator/health"
HTTP/1.1 200
Content-Type: application/vnd.spring-boot.actuator.v3 json
Transfer-Encoding: chunked

Any thoughts on why it coming back empty?

CodePudding user response：

Because:

curl --help all

...says:

...
 -I, --head               Show document info only
...

;)

So with:

curl --header 'Content-Type: application/json' -X "GET" "http://localhost:8083/actuator/health"

(omitting -I) we get the expected:
