JobRunr with Spring Boot – ConverterNotFound Exception

I have a Kotlin Spring Boot application and tried to integrate the JobRunr Spring Boot Starter dependency, along with the Kotlin JobRunr Support Module. Dependencies:

// Jackson JSON Serialization
implementation("com.fasterxml.jackson.module:jackson-module-kotlin:2.13.3")

// Spring Boot Version is 2.7.1 (latest)

// Jobs
implementation("org.jobrunr:jobrunr-spring-boot-starter:5.1.6")
implementation("org.jobrunr:jobrunr-kotlin-1.7-support:5.1.6")

I configured JobRunr like this:

@Configuration
class JobRunrConfiguration {

    @Bean
    fun jobMapper(): JobMapper {
        return JobMapper(JacksonJsonMapper(jacksonObjectMapper()))
    }
}

I’m using Postgres as my database.

Application properties are as follows:

# JobRunr
org.jobrunr.background_job_server=true
org.jobrunr.dashboard=true

It is quite basic stuff after following the documentation, but when I try to start the application I get the error:

Failed to bind properties under ‘org.jobrunr.background-job-server’ to
org.jobrunr.spring.autoconfigure.JobRunrProperties$BackgroundJobServer".
Reason: org.springframework.core.convert.ConverterNotFoundException:
No converter found capable of converting from type [java.lang.String]
to type
[org.jobrunr.spring.autoconfigure.JobRunrProperties$BackgroundJobServer]

I tried different object mappers and configurations, swapping out dependencies, but nothing is working. Anyone have some pointers or ideas in the right direction?

>Solution :

It fails to parse the configuration below:

# JobRunr
org.jobrunr.background_job_server=true
org.jobrunr.dashboard=true

according to the source code the configuration should look like:

org.jobrunr.background-job-server.enabled=true
org.jobrunr.dashboard.enabled=true
