mongoProperties properties are null - jhipster

Question

I'm a newbie to Jhipster. I created gateway project with mongodb. I started jhipster-registry and mongodb in docker. There is no other microservice. when I debugged gateway project, I found below error:
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Database name must not be empty

I put a breakpoint within method getDatabaseName() in DatabaseConfiguration.java class and debug getwayApp.java. I found all the properties of mongoProperties are null except url with value 'mongodb://localhost/test'. I configured data in application-dev.yml like this:
data:
cassandra:
contactPoints: localhost
protocolVersion: V4
compression: LZ4
keyspaceName: gateway
repositories:
enabled: false
mongodb:
host: localhost
port: 27017
uri: mongodb://localhost:27017
database: jhipsterMongodbSampleApplication
but it was the same result of I didn't configure it.
How and where should I configure mongodb in gateway? Thanks in advance.

You put the mongodb block under cassandra, reduce indentation.
Also don't forget that your application properties should be defined in registry for production like deployment.
