This should be caused by dependency issue  in general  you need to check the dependency

Adding the spring boot starter dependency fixed my error    lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt org springframework boot lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt spring-boot-starter-web lt  artifactId gt   lt  dependency gt    This is required if you want to start the tomcat as an embeded server

A scan of the  SpringBootApplication show that it includes the following annotations    Configuration  ComponentScan  EnableAutoConfiguration   So you could do this too    SpringBootApplication public class Application       public static void main String   args           SpringApplication run ScheduledTasks class  args

use this one in your pom xml     lt dependency gt           lt groupId gt org springframework boot lt  groupId gt           lt artifactId gt spring-boot-starter-web lt  artifactId gt   lt  dependency gt    or this one     lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt org springframework boot lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt spring-boot-starter-tomcat lt  artifactId gt   lt  dependency gt

if you experience this exception while using intellij and you are trying to start the application with the run button  Try starting the application from the command line instead  E g  ensure that you are in the correct directory  directory with your pom file  assuming this is a springboot application run mvn spring-boot run this did the trick for me    Additionally I have also seen this error occur when your spring application depends on another application  In this case I had to start the other application first then run

I had multiple application classes in one Spring Boot project which had the web started included and wanted to avoid it configuring a web environment for one of them so I manually configured it as below    SpringBootApplication public class Application       public static void main String   args                new SpringApplicationBuilder Application class               web false               run args             UPDATE for Spring Boot 2 and above    SpringBootApplication public class Application       public static void main String   args                new SpringApplicationBuilder Application class               web WebApplicationType NONE               run args

I ve had similar problems when the main method is on a different class than that passed to SpringApplcation run     So the solution would be to use the line you ve commented out   public class Application       public static void main String   args            SpringApplication run Application class  args

The error suggests that the application you are trying to run cannot instantiate an instance of apache tomcat  Make sure you are running the application with tomcat   if after checking all your dependencies you experience the same problem  try to add the following in your configuration class   Bean public EmbeddedServletContainerFactory servletContainer         TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory factory                      new TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory        return factory       If you are using an external instance of tomcat  especially for intellij   the problem could be that the IDE is trying to start the embedded tomcat  In this case  remove the following from your pom xml then configure the external tomcat using the  Edit Configurations  wizard    lt dependency gt        lt groupId gt org springframework boot lt  groupId gt        lt artifactId gt spring-boot-starter-tomcat lt  artifactId gt        lt scope gt provided lt  scope gt   lt  dependency gt

Try this   Configuration  ComponentScan  EnableAutoConfiguration public class Application       public static void main String   args           SpringApplication run ScheduledTasks class  args

User · Answer

An other cause of this problem is corruption of maven repository jars so you can use the following command to solve the problem     mvn dependency purge-local-repository

User · Answer

The scheduling guide isn t a web app so you probably have some mouldy stuff in your pom xml from the REST guide  If you follow the instructions closely it should work  Another potential issue with the code you posted above is that your  EnableAutoConfiguration class is not used in the context  only as a main method  which may not be a problem for the scheduling guide but it probably is for a bunch of others

If you package it as a single jar and it s non web app try to load app context as below    SpringBootApplication  ApplicationContext ctx   new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext Main class     Or use below plugin to package as a single jar                lt plugin gt                   lt groupId gt org springframework boot lt  groupId gt                   lt artifactId gt spring-boot-maven-plugin lt  artifactId gt                   lt executions gt                       lt execution gt                           lt goals gt                               lt goal gt repackage lt  goal gt                           lt  goals gt                       lt  execution gt                   lt  executions gt               lt  plugin gt    you can specify the external configs by using below command to run  java -jar myproject jar --spring config location classpath  default properties classpath  override properties    http   docs spring io spring-boot docs current reference htmlboot-features-external-config html boot-features-external-config-application-property-files  Note that if you are passing the properties as arguments then don t include  PropertySource  classpath test properties   it will override the parameters

If you run it successfully using command line gradle bootRun  while packaging it with command line gradle jar to jar file in order to run it with command line java -jar build libs demo jar  unfortunately  it failed with Exception  Unable to start EmbeddedWebApplicationContext due to missing EmbeddedServletContainerFactory bean  in this case  you need to use task bootRepackage of gradle plugin spring-boot to generate special runnable jar    setup 1       gradle clean bootRepackage  setup 2       java -jar build libs demo jar

A SpringApplication will attempt to create the right type of ApplicationContext on your behalf  By default  an AnnotationConfigApplicationContext or AnnotationConfigEmbeddedWebApplicationContext will be used  depending on whether you are developing a web application or not   The algorithm used to determine a    web environment    is fairly simplistic  based on the presence of a few classes   You can use setWebEnvironment boolean webEnvironment  if you need to override the default   It is also possible to take complete control of the ApplicationContext type that will be used by calling setApplicationContextClass          Tip  It is often desirable to call setWebEnvironment false  when using SpringApplication within a JUnit test

Adding the annotation  SpringBootApplication Before the starter class fixed this problem for me  so in essence  this error message can mean  you don t have a  SpringBootApplication marked class anywhere  you need at least one    SpringBootApplication public class AppStarter        public static void main String   args            SpringApplication run AppStarter class  args

The problem it s in this class    ComponentScan  EnableAutoConfiguration public class Application       public static void main String   args          SpringApplication run Application class  args       SpringApplication run ScheduledTasks class  args             The correct way to launch your application is    SpringBootApplication  EnableScheduling public class Application       public static void main String   args        SpringApplication run Application class  args

In my case we added the  Profile annotation newly in order to ignore the TestApplication class in production mode and the Application class in test mode   Unfortunately  we forgot to add the following line into the application properties files   spring profiles active test or spring profiles active production   Without these config no profile was loaded which caused the not-so-much saying Spring Error
