Spring with spring.config.location -

i trying point @ path external configuration file this:

--spring.config.location=file: c:/users/some_user/workspace/repository1/payment-api/payment.yml 

and doesn't work. idea why?

the proper prefix file://. on windows need "/" in file url if absolute drive prefix

try file:///c:/users/some_user/workspace/repository1/payment-api/payment.yml instead.
