It's extremely weird. I made no changes at all, and now suddenly spring-doc Swagger UI doesn't work.
First, I had this error.
Then, after updating the version of the artifact from 2.6.0 to 2.8.8, I got a white label page instead of the Swagger UI (404 Not found).
Reproduced with a regular curl too:
curl http://localhost:8080/swagger-ui
{"timestamp":"2025-05-23T15:07:02.314+00:00","status":404,"error":"Not Found","path":"/swagger-ui"}
http://localhost:8080/v3/api-docs
is, on the other hand, available.
My properties:
server.port=8080
springdoc.swagger-ui.path=/swagger-ui
My (entire) pom:

I checked with the documentation. The property name is still springdoc.swagger-ui.path
.
What is happening and how do I fix it?
Invalidating IntelliJ caches helped. Wtf
What does it have to do with anything? Why would the IDE "uncache" that property from my property file?
