No current injection point found

Error message

No current injection point found

What it means

Thrown by ConfigPropertiesCreator.create when InjectionPointProvider.getCurrent(context) returns null while creating the synthetic bean for a legacy @ConfigProperties class. The creator reads the injection point to know which properties prefix and class to materialize; when resolution happens outside a bean-creation flow that carries injection point metadata (e.g., bare programmatic lookup), the sentinel guard rejects it because there is no way to infer the target configuration class.

Solutions

1. Inject the @ConfigProperties class via normal CDI injection rather than resolving it programmatically without metadata
2. Migrate from the deprecated @ConfigProperties to a @ConfigMapping interface, which does not depend on an injection point
3. Ensure the lookup goes through the container (CDI.current().select(...)) within an active bean-creation context
