Recently I have created simple web app using spring boot java technology. While uploading project war file into external tomcat server I have received error. Firstly I though that It was caused by some maven dependency so I wanted to add dependencies one by one and check which one cause the problem. I just created new project using spring boot and uploaded war file to tomcat with "empty" spring boot project and unfortunately the same error appeared.
Spring boot main class:
package com.example.demo6;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.builder.SpringApplicationBuilder;
import org.springframework.boot.web.servlet.support.SpringBootServletInitializer;
@SpringBootApplication
public class Demo6Application extends SpringBootServletInitializer {
@Override
protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder application){
return application.sources(Demo6Application.class);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(Demo6Application.class, args);
}
}

Tomcat version: Apache Tomcat/7.0.76 JVM: 1.8.0_40-b26
Any help and suggestions will be much appreciated! Thank you.
Apache Tomcat/9.0.8and JVM version1.8.0_172-b11. I suspect it is some tomcat server incompatibility with one of the spring boot dependencies(transitive). – alltej
