Today, I reported an error when I was going to learn something new and build a new project integration swagger.

The general reason is that due to the springboot version problem, the default strategy for matching the request path after 2.6 and spring MVC processing mapping has been changed from antpathmatcher to pathpatternparser.
So the solution here is also very simple
The first solution is to set up spring according to the official prompts mvc.pathmatch.Matching strategy is ant path matcher, which is effective and available for personal testing;
spring:
mvc:
pathmatch:
matching-strategy: ant_path_matcher
The second solution is to directly reduce the springboot version. I’ll try to reduce it to level 2.4 here. There’s no problem
