Springboot @retryable not retrying

Question

The following code is not retrying. What am I missing?

@EnableRetry
@SpringBootApplication
public class App implements CommandLineRunner
{
    .........
    ....

An alternative could be RetryTemplate

@Bean
    public RetryTemplate retryTemplate() {
        RetryTemplate retryTemplate = new RetryTemplate();

        FixedBackOffPolicy fixedBackOffPolicy = new FixedBackOffPolicy();
        fixedBackOffPolicy.setBackOffPeriod(2000l);
        retryTemplate.setBackOffPolicy(fixedBackOffPolicy);

        SimpleRetryPolicy retryPolicy = new SimpleRetryPolicy();
        retryPolicy.setMaxAttempts(2);
        retryTemplate.setRetryPolicy(retryPolicy);

        return retryTemplate;
    }

and

retryTemplate.execute(new RetryCallback() {
    @Override
    public Void doWithRetry(RetryContext arg0) {
        myService.templateRetryService();
        ...
    }
});

worked out for me
