I have a spring boot project that deals with the management of books and authors, in particular in the form for entering a new book I must also add its author or several authors associated with that book.
To enter an author I use a search bar which checks based on the first letters typed in the bar which author or authors in the db have those characters entered.

What happens instead when I start typing letters is that I get an error message instead of the suggestions.
Here are my codes I wrote:
