Answer 1

There is a dependency to include as Spring boot doesn't know how to translate JSP to Servlet. So,

1. Check the version of your tomcat-embed-core-.jar.

2. Go to that corresponding version release on https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.tomcat/tomcat-jasper

3. Copy the dependency, it will look like-

        org.apache.tomcat
        tomcat-jasper
        9.0.37 
 

here version needs to be updated as per your tomcat-embed-core jar version

4. Update Maven Project so that it can download the jar from repo.

Now you are good to go with your project.
