What is preventing me from adding new static files to my springboot web application?

edit

There can be several reasons why you might be facing issues while adding new static files to your Springboot web application. Some of the common reasons are:

1. Incorrect file path: Make sure that you have specified the correct file path for the static files. If the file path is incorrect, Springboot will not be able to locate and load the files.

2. Resource caching: Springboot caches the static files to improve performance. This can sometimes prevent the application from loading new static files. To resolve this, you can disable caching or clear the cache manually.

3. File permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to access and modify the static files. If the file permissions are not set correctly, you may face issues while adding new files.

4. Configuration issues: Check your application configuration to ensure that it is set up correctly. You may need to configure your application to include the new static files.

5. Deployment issues: If you have deployed your application on a server, you may need to update the server configuration to include the new static files. Make sure that the files are being deployed to the correct directory on the server.
