movies-java-spring-data-neo4j | Neo4j Movies Example with Spring Data Neo4j | Graph Database library

In an attempt to recreate the Spring Data Neo4j official Movies example in Scala I have ran into an issue jsonifying on the Spring Data Neo4j layer.

The details are noted in the README in this example project.

Booting the Spring app and hitting /movies/ gives the following stacktrace:

018-03-27 15:33:23 WARN DefaultHandlerExceptionResolver:442 - Failed to write HTTP message: org.springframework.http.converter.HttpMessageNotWritableException: Could not write JSON: Invalid Object Id definition for movies.Movie: cannot find property with name 'id'; nested exception is com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonMappingException: Invalid Object Id definition for movies.Movie: cannot find property with name 'id' (through reference chain: org.springframework.hateoas.PagedResources["_embedded"]->java.util.Collections$UnmodifiableMap["movies"]->java.util.ArrayList[0])

I have opened an official Spring Data Neo4j JIRA issue here.

Edit: After the latest comment, I have removed unrelated theories about the root cause from this post. And I have updated the example project to expose the IDs on the Spring Data Rest layer using a PostConstruct method (thanks @meistermeier). I also tried the RepositoryRestConfigurerAdapter method. However, the original HttpMessageNotWritableException persists. Any ideas?

Update: Modeling Movie.scala after SDN-University example, I tried using com.voodoodyne.jackson.jsog.JSOGGenerator as an Object ID Generator. I can successfully hit /movies/ but the only key is "id", and it's simply an index, and not the actual id. However, 38 movies do return, the amount in the Movies data set. I would think this narrows down the issue to the jsonfying part.

Update 2: By using a bandaid to manually form the json in the controller (using an object-to-map function, and a map-to-json function) I am finally able to send data out through the endpoints. I have updated the example project to demonstrate this. I can successfully retrieve objects from the movieRepository, and manipulate them as I please. I think this has clearly narrowed down the problem to the jsonification. Does anyone have a clear example (Java or Scala) on how to properly annotate NodeEntity with JsonIdentifyInfo?

I am learning this example:

In this MovieRepository, this is the path setting:

I'm trying to create an example how to remove an relationship at neo4j using spring data rest service. You can use neo4j-movies-example to test.

If I get information about person 1 I see there is one film

On Ubuntu 16.10 I have followed the instruction from:

https://github.com/neo4j-examples/movies-java-spring-data-neo4j-4

But when I go to http://localhost:8080/ and try to search for e.g. Matrix nothing happens, it just looks empty:

I have verified that the neo4j db has been populated with the required data and I also updated user/pass in the .properties file in the maven project.

Any ideas, and is it possible to find a log somewhere?

Pressing F12 in Firefox gives:

Indicating the error in the sources as described in the below answer, did not manage to get the same error info in Chrome when pressing F12 though.

I'm trying to setup the Spring Data Neo4j 4 neo4j movies example found at https://neo4j.com/developer/example-project/

I have everything up and running locally. Two of the three components are working, the list of movies and the background graph. What isn't working is the displaying of an individual movie on the right.
