so at 5:45 when he runs it, I had to add these lines to the applications.properties file for mine to run:
I'm using STS 4 instead of IntelliJ


server.port=8761

[sergeiirinalutsev]

don't need to add any dependency. just write in application.properties : server.port=8061

[purveshnar]

It worked for me when i added following 3 lines in application.properties:


server.port=8061

I've added the JAX-B dependencies in my project all of them yet still I keep getting the error "Implementation of JAXB-API has not been found on module path or classpath.".

What else can I do ?
Anyone else having this problem ?

*EDIT*: Fixed it.
Turns out you need a specific version of the jax-b api and runtime. 2.3.1 and 2.3.3 respectively. I added the latest versions at first which didn't work.

Am trying to use the discovery-server archived in github but the Sync is failing though I am using Java11. I am seeing all the dependencies added in pom.xml are mentioned but still couldn't solve the error.

[MyBinaryLife]

i found with java 17 i didnt need all the jaxb dependencies in my pom.xml, and everything worked fine as far as i can tell. configured the port in application.props. i think the he forgot to configure it in the tut because he had downloaded a previously configured file from the github to save time, so he didnt need to change it.

how can we register eureka client on ssl enabled eureka server? I am using openshift but it is not registering..

[agbonirojacinta]

[JohnDoe-ejvm]

[NIs]

I am getting Cannot execute request on any known server, I am not able to connect client with eureka server.
Any help ?

[dileepnb]

I'm sorry eureka doesn't start by default at 8761 just like other spring boot apps it starts at port 8080 unless we specify it happened in my case with STS 4

[abhishekkumar-yhpp]

was getting errors: com/sun/xml/bind/Util...., after hit and trial resolved the issue by changing the jaxb-runtime version to 3.0.2

I have never seen better Indian teacher :O <3

[michaelbronshteyn]

Thanks for a great post on Java 11 and JAXB. It was the problem I ran into and trying to solve. Your video pointed me to the right direction.

[moratrolls]

In JDK 16 do not need to add JAX dependencies.

[HallaBolful]

There are some changes now. Server port defaults to 8080. @EnableEurekaServer is not optional.

[vinodkarathiyaofficial]

Hello Sir,
As we saw that from output console that Eureka server started and after that Tomact server also started so Eurek is using tomact sever's instance using port no 8761 or how it configured under spring project? Request you to highlight the same.

[sumityadav]

the default port where eureka server starts is 8080, port 8761 doesnt exist by default.
