When you get this error some annotation is missing  I was missing  service annotation on service  When I added that annotation it worked fine for me

Well there s a problem with the creation of the ContactServiceImpl bean  First  make sure that the class is actually instantiated by debugging the no-args constructor when the Spring context is initiated and when an instance of ContactController is created   If the ContactServiceImpl is actually instantiated by the Spring context  but it s simply not matched against your  Autowire annotation  try being more explicit in your annotation injection  Here s a guy dealing with a similar problem as yours and giving some possible solutions   http   blogs sourceallies com 2011 08 spring-injection-with-resource-and-autowired   If you ask me  I think you ll be ok if you replace    Autowired private ContactService contactService    with    Resource  Qualifier  contactService   private ContactService contactService

In spring servlet  xml     lt context component-scan base-package  net controller    gt     I assumed that the service impl is in the same package as the service interface  net service    I think you have to add the package net service  or all of net  to the component scan  Currently spring only searches in net controller for components and as your service impl is in net service  it will not be instantiated by spring

I had exactly the same problem try to put the two classes in the same package and add line in the 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 version gt  1 2 0 RELEASE  lt  version gt    lt  dependency gt

I was getting this same error and searching for it led me here   My fix appeared to be simply to add  Component annotation to the implementation of the abstract service   In this case  that would look like   import org springframework stereotype Component         Component public class ContactServiceImpl implements ContactService
