Spring Boot Jersey - Missing EmbeddedServletContainerFactory when running java -jar command
I am having problems with my Spring Boot Jersey application when started with a command java -jar
. When I run the main class from IntelliJ it works fine. So I assumed it might be a class issue, but I used the maven-assembly-plugin and all Spring classes seem to exist.
I have: Spring-boot-starter-web, Spring-boot-jersey, Spring-boot-starter-tomcat on the classpath, and for the rest of the Spring boot I have included this:
<dependency>
<!-- Import dependency management from Spring Boot -->
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-dependencies</artifactId>
<version>1.1.8.RELEASE</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>import</scope>
</dependency>
My build plugin config looks like this:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.5</version>
<!-- nothing here -->
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.4.1</version>
<configuration>
<descriptorRefs>
<descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
</descriptorRefs>
<archive>
<manifest>
<mainClass>org.online.auth.conf.ApplicationMain</mainClass>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
When I extract the jar file, I found that all Spring dependencies (EmbeddedServletContainer and its subclasses (Tomcat / Jetty)) exist.
The startup log displays the following error message:

I tried to define the EmbeddedServletContainerFactory explicitly, but that just gave me another exception with a message A ServletContext is required to configure default servlet handling
.
Any help on this would be much appreciated!
Edit
I tried to print every bean created by the container by implementing BeanPostProcessor
:
@ComponentScan
@EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude = {
DataSourceAutoConfiguration.class,
DataSourceInitializer.class,
DataSourceTransactionManagerAutoConfiguration.class,
SecurityAutoConfiguration.class})
public class ApplicationMain extends SpringBootServletInitializer implements BeanPostProcessor {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ConfigurableApplicationContext context = SpringApplication.run(ApplicationMain.class, args);
}
@Override
public Object postProcessBeforeInitialization(Object bean, String beanName) throws BeansException {
System.out.println("\t\tbean: "+ beanName);
return bean;
}
}
Running this in IntelliJ gives me the following output:
2014-11-03 16:11:26.348 INFO 13548 --- [ main] trationDelegate$BeanPostProcessorChecker : Bean 'metaDataSourceAdvisor' of type [class org.springframework.security.access.intercept.aopalliance.MethodSecurityMetadataSourceAdvisor] is not eligible for getting processed by all BeanPostProcessors (for example: not eligible for auto-proxying)

Running the jar file with the command java
gives me the following output:

I finally figured it out by reading the documentation more carefully. The Spring docs clearly state that you need to use the spring-boot-maven-plugin in the build section of your pom.xml.
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
I also added a property that declares the main class:
<properties>
<start-class>org.online.auth.ApplicationMain</start-class>
</properties>
Hope this can help others.
