Spring Boot errors categories based to their origin

Errors fall into different categories, each of which reflects the type and source of the mistake. Spring Boot is a flexible platform for creating Java-based web applications. The challenges that arise at different stages of the development and implementation of an application are covered by these categories.

1. Compilation Errors:
   • Description: Errors that occur during the compilation phase, typically related to syntax or type issues.
   • Example: missing semicolon, undefined variable.
2. Runtime Errors:
   • Description: Errors that occur during the execution of the program, often due to unexpected conditions.
   • Example: NullPointerExeption, ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.
3. Logic Errors:
   • Description: Errors in the application’s logic, where the program runs but doesn’t produce the expected output.
   • Example: Incorrect business logic leads to incorrect results.
4. Exception handling errors:
   • Description: Errors related to inadequate or improper exception handling in the code.
   • Example: unhandled exceptions, incomplete try-catch blocks.
5. Database Errors:
   • Description: Errors related to database interactions, such as connection issues, SQL syntax errors, or constraint violations.
   • Example: SQLSyntaxErrorException, DataAccessException.
6. Configuration Errors:
   • Description: Errors arising from misconfigurations in the application context, properties, or dependencies.
   • Example: BeanCreationException, ConfigurationPropertiesBindException.
7. Network Errors:
   • Description: Errors related to network communication, such as connection timeouts or failures.
   • Example: SocketTimeoutException, ConnectionException.
8. Security Errors:
   • Description: Errors related to security vulnerabilities or misconfigurations.
   • Example: AccessDeniedException, AuthenticationFailureException.
9. Custom Errors:
   • Description: Errors specific to the application’s domain or business logic, often defined by the developer.
   • Example: CustomException, BusinessRuleViolationException.
10. Dependency Injection Errors:
    • Description: Errors related to issues with Spring’s dependency injection mechanism.
    • Example: UnsatisfiedDependencyException, NoSuchBeanDefinitionException.

Different strategies are needed to solve different kinds of errors; these strategies may include debugging, code reviews, configuration changes, or graciously resolving particular exceptions.
