Spring Boot webserver works fine in Eclipse, fails to start on Server : missing EmbeddedServletContainerFactory bean

问题

Following the model of the Spring Documentation I created a very simple Hello World like application. It spun right up on Eclipse and everything looked great. Sweet! I ran it and could browse to the URL. Fastest development ever.

But this has to run on a server, and looking at the jar, it was only about 4K so I knew that it wasn't going to work without a bunch of classpath configuration. To avoid that, I figured I needed a jar-with-dependencies jar.

So this is my pom.xml, basically identical to that of the Spring example except adding the jar-with-dependencies goal for the assembly plugin.

                </executions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>
</project>

But when I go to run the thing:

java -jar LoadTestController-1.0.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar

I get:

org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextException: Unable to start embedded container; nested exception is org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextException: Unable to start EmbeddedWebApplicationContext due to missing EmbeddedServletContainerFactory bean.

I don't think it should make any difference but here is the one (and only) class in this project:

package com.whatever;

import java.io.IOException;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;

@Controller
@EnableAutoConfiguration
public class LoadTestController {

    @RequestMapping("/")
    public void simulator(HttpServletResponse response) {
        try {
            Thread.sleep(100);
        } catch (InterruptedException e1) {

        }
        response.setContentType("text/plain");
        response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_OK);
        try {
            response.getOutputStream().println("0");
            response.flushBuffer();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
    /**
     * @param args
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(LoadTestController.class, args);  
    }

What have I done wrong?

回答1:

And the answer is ... Don't use the maven-assembly-plugin. Reading further on in the documentation, we see that Spring has made their own plugin for this, the spring-boot-maven-plugin. Changing the pom.xml to remove the maven-assembly-plugin and use instead:

    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <executions>
            <execution>
                <goals>
                    <goal>repackage</goal>
                </goals>
            </execution>
        </executions>
    </plugin>

solves the problem.

I decided to leave this question up in case anyone else runs into this problem. You think you know how to do something, but time marches on.
