Javalin webserver loads config from another webserver

Question

I got this server where I am loading a couple different jars as plugins. 2 of these jars use a Javalin, Jetty webserver for some functionality. Currently my plugin is for some reason loading the io.javalin.core.JavalinConfig from the other jar and this is causing conflicts as it will also complain about not being able to find the webfiles that are in the jar file.

[13:46:30 WARN]: [ItemSorter] Loaded class io.javalin.core.JavalinConfig from Storefront v2.0-SNAPSHOT which is not a depend, softdepend or loadbefore of this plugin.
[13:46:30 WARN]: [ItemSorter] Plugin ItemSorter v0.01 generated an exception while executing task 221 java.lang.RuntimeException: Static resource directory with path: '/web' does not exist. Depending on your setup, empty folders might not get copied to classpath. at io.javalin.http.staticfiles.JettyResourceHandler.getResourcePath(JettyResourceHandler.kt:59) ~[?:?] at io.javalin.http.staticfiles.JettyResourceHandler.addStaticFileConfig(JettyResourceHandler.kt:27) ~[?:?] at io.javalin.core.JavalinConfig.addStaticFiles(JavalinConfig.java:122) ~[?:?] at io.javalin.core.JavalinConfig.addStaticFiles(JavalinConfig.java:115) ~[?:?] at io.javalin.core.JavalinConfig.addStaticFiles(JavalinConfig.java:111) ~[?:?]

Snippet of loading my javalin:

app = Javalin.create(config -> {
        config.addStaticFiles("/web");
        config.showJavalinBanner = false;
        config.requestCacheSize = 30000L;
    }).start(config.getInt("port"));

Snippet of the other plugin loading javalin:

val app = Javalin.create().start(7000)

Anyone have any kind of ideas as to seperate their loadings?

The path you provide to addStaticFiles() method is a fully qualified path name.

The error is telling you that you don't have a directory (or file) on your filesystem at /web (which would be a directory called "web" off the root of your filesystem)

Make the path point to a real resource location that actually exists.
