title: Why did I have to correct the spring roo code?
body: <p>I created a very simple working project using Spring Roo 2 M3 with Spring Tool Suite 3.8.3.  It simply lists the contents of a MySQL table and allows me to edit it.  I could not get the show unless I pushed in the following code and manually corrected it:</p>
  
  <pre><code>package org.oclc.web;
  import org.oclc.domain.SFDCRecordTypeAccount;
  import org.springframework.roo.addon.web.mvc.controller.annotations.ControllerType;
  import org.springframework.roo.addon.web.mvc.controller.annotations.RooController;
  import org.springframework.roo.addon.web.mvc.thymeleaf.annotations.RooThymeleaf;
  import org.springframework.ui.Model;
  import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.GetMapping;
  import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ModelAttribute;
  import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
  
  /**
   * = SFDCRecordTypeAccountsItemThymeleafController
   *
   * TODO Auto-generated class documentation
   *
   */
  @RooController(entity = SFDCRecordTypeAccount.class, type = ControllerType.ITEM)
  @RooThymeleaf
  public class SFDCRecordTypeAccountsItemThymeleafController {
  
  /**
   * TODO Auto-generated method documentation
   * 
   * @param sFDCRecordTypeAccount
   * @param model
   * @return ModelAndView
   */
  @GetMapping(name = "show")
  public ModelAndView show(@ModelAttribute SFDCRecordTypeAccount sFDCRecordTypeAccount, Model model) {
      ModelAndView model1 = new ModelAndView("sfdcrecordtypeaccounts/show");
      model1.addObject("sFDCRecordTypeAccount",sFDCRecordTypeAccount);
      return (model1);
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>}</p>
  
  <p>Did I do something wrong when I generated the original code?  Below are the contents of my log.roo file:</p>
