spring.cloud.gateway.discovery.locator.enabled is an unknown property. Is there any alternative. I use spring version 3.2.6

Question

spring.application.name=api-gateway
server.port=8765

#unknown property
spring.cloud.gateway.discovery.locator.enabled=true

I tried to downgrade the version of Spring but nothing helps and I also couldn’t find an answer on the Internet

Answer 1

I had the same problem as you, after some research I found that I missed a dependency.

I had in my pom the gateway-mvc, however the property was only correctly identified once I included the gateway dependency, without the "MVC":

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.cloud/spring-cloud-starter-gateway

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.springframework.cloud/spring-cloud-starter-gateway -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-gateway</artifactId>
    <version>4.1.4</version>
</dependency>

Answer 2

I had the same problem as you. After checking pom.xml, I found that I added the wrong dependency is:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-gateway-mvc</artifactId>
</dependency>

Instead, try this:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-gateway</artifactId>
</dependency>
