Chapter 2 design.html causes parse Error.

[ChristophKronberger]

The design.html works not out of the Box.

After removeing <input type="text" th:field="*{name}"/> <!-- end::all[] --> <span th:text="${#fields.hasErrors('name')}">XXX</span> <span class="validationError" th:if="${#fields.hasErrors('name')}" th:errors="*{name}">Name Error</span>

The file is correct parsed.

Before i got a "Bean property 'name' is not readable or has an invalid getter" Exception

This problem is caused by the code error. You can change the code to

    public String showDesignForm(Model model) {
        model.addAttribute("design", new Taco());

        return "design";
    }

you can see the code in book was model.addAttribute("taco", new Taco());

Too many errors in this book, I'm just at chapter2.

its so important that import a special package. i had error in parsing b4 n after i changed some of them some of its issues got correct. check your import packages n download n add true .jar files to your project. for example aftef i added the code below for Converter interface some of issues disapeared. but for me it was more.
import org.springframework.core.convert.converter.Converter;
