Seeking guidance a a 6 year experience software engineer to become a good software engineer

I recently completed 6 years and I am not so happy about it. I didn’t learn anything significant (not even programming basics) in all these years. My pay is quite low since I have been in the same company since 6 years. I am a java developer (java 8, spring mvc, container, Kubernetes, REST APIs, microservices etc). I have been trying to find out what a 6 year old software engineer is supposed to know and what are the expectations from them and I don’t think I know anything – even basics of java and coding(even though my projects is rest apis development but its so many engineers I haven’t got any end to end rest api development (not even a single java class) since like 2 years), handling end to end projects, mentoring juniors and troubleshooting pretty much anything why I am saying this is I recently started trying for internal projects switch in company and the evaluator asked me basics Java question (OOPs concepts, Java 8 feature and explanation, spring core concept like annotation and there explanation , bean scopes , docker basics, sql basic queries, jenkins basics, maven basics etc and I was not able to answer anything except few confused and not so clear answers.). Designing complex systems, algo, data structure and design patterns are still long shot. One of the reason I would say is 3 years back I appeared for internal assessment exam and at that time I started leetcoding for a month and cleared that exam and got my CTC doubled but since then I became complacent like for 1 year I was just happy that my pay is even more than my seniors and then after that next couple of years I became so lazy due to WFH I would sleep whole day during office hours because of no coding work and just little api support work (which I will finish quickly) then I got onsite in UK and now here working with client engineers and other partner engineers from 1.5 years it has become quite difficult for me to even understand basic technical terms I sometimes feel like while in a discussion or meetings my answer or view points are completely tangent or off topic and most off the time I don’t understand the issue and my investigation is only based on guesses. I always try to find a way to avoid one to one technical discussion with colleague because of fear that I might get exposed. Another reason might be in my initial years I never maintained a good relationship with seniors nor did any networking (with alumni’s or others) and hence never got any guidance on how to progress also I never had that zeal to learn anything.

Springboot web -application show some minor error Github link present

“I am experiencing difficulties in initiating this project as it is only partially built and is displaying some minor errors, despite the correctness of my code. If anyone could assist me in rectifying these issues, I have already pushed my code to GitHub.”
Anyhelp would be grateful Thanks
