Overview

I can run the application by using maven plugin of spring-boot but not run it with the IDE. The following lines give some detail about my program.

The application class is as follows: 

package com.blss.retailServices.dataExportRouter; import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication; import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration; import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.velocity.VelocityAutoConfiguration; import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration; @Configuration @ComponentScan @EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude = { VelocityAutoConfiguration.class }) public class DataExportRouterApplication { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { SpringApplication.run(DataExportRouterApplication.class, args); } }

The exception stack trace is as follows: 

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. at org.springframework.boot.context.embedded.EmbeddedWebApplicationContext.onRefresh(EmbeddedWebApplicationContext.java:133) ~[spring-boot-1.3.3.RELEASE.jar:1.3.3.RELEASE] at org.springframework.context.support.AbstractApplicationContext.refresh(AbstractApplicationContext.java:532) ~[spring-context-4.2.5.RELEASE.jar:4.2.5.RELEASE] at org.springframework.boot.context.embedded.EmbeddedWebApplicationContext.refresh(EmbeddedWebApplicationContext.java:118) ~[spring-boot-1.3.3.RELEASE.jar:1.3.3.RELEASE] at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.refresh(SpringApplication.java:766) [spring-boot-1.3.3.RELEASE.jar:1.3.3.RELEASE] at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.createAndRefreshContext(SpringApplication.java:361) [spring-boot-1.3.3.RELEASE.jar:1.3.3.RELEASE] at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.run(SpringApplication.java:307) [spring-boot-1.3.3.RELEASE.jar:1.3.3.RELEASE] at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.run(SpringApplication.java:1191) [spring-boot-1.3.3.RELEASE.jar:1.3.3.RELEASE] at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.run(SpringApplication.java:1180) [spring-boot-1.3.3.RELEASE.jar:1.3.3.RELEASE] at com.blss.retailServices.dataExportRouter.DataExportRouterApplication.main(DataExportRouterApplication.java:14) [classes/:na] at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) ~[na:1.8.0_74] at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:62) ~[na:1.8.0_74] at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) ~[na:1.8.0_74] at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:498) ~[na:1.8.0_74] at com.intellij.rt.execution.application.AppMain.main(AppMain.java:147) [idea_rt.jar:na] Caused by: org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextException: Unable to start EmbeddedWebApplicationContext due to missing EmbeddedServletContainerFactory bean. at org.springframework.boot.context.embedded.EmbeddedWebApplicationContext.getEmbeddedServletContainerFactory(EmbeddedWebApplicationContext.java:185) ~[spring-boot-1.3.3.RELEASE.jar:1.3.3.RELEASE] at org.springframework.boot.context.embedded.EmbeddedWebApplicationContext.createEmbeddedServletContainer(EmbeddedWebApplicationContext.java:158) ~[spring-boot-1.3.3.RELEASE.jar:1.3.3.RELEASE] at org.springframework.boot.context.embedded.EmbeddedWebApplicationContext.onRefresh(EmbeddedWebApplicationContext.java:130) ~[spring-boot-1.3.3.RELEASE.jar:1.3.3.RELEASE] ... 13 common frames omitted

I used @SpringbootApplication but to no avail.

I am guessing you have a war packaging project with Maven and you've flagged your servlet engine (tomcat) as provided.

Unfortunately, IntellIJ IDEA does not add provided dependencies in the runtime classpath, that's why your project does not work when you run it from the IDE.

UPDATE 7/30/2019

As per Giorgio:

They have added a checkbox in the Application Run Configuration to "Include dependencies with 'Provided' scope"

Thank you so much. That was exactly my problem. I changed "spring-boot-starter-tomcat" dependency scope to compile and it was run properly.

@Giorgio can you tell me in which version of IntelliJ you see the option?
@Ena I am using: IntelliJ IDEA 2018.1.1 (Community Edition) Build #IC-181.4445.78, built on April 10, 2018 JRE: 1.8.0_152-release-1136-b27 x86_64 JVM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o macOS 10.13.4
Thank you this also solved my problem on Ubuntu 20.04, IntelliJ IDEA 2020.2 EAP (Community Edition) Build #IC-202.5792.28, built on June 18, 2020 Runtime version: 11.0.7+10-b944.12 amd64 VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o.
