Spring boot 1.5.2 - web application stops after lo

I have a very weird problem with Spring Boot, I don't know why the web application which using Spring Boot cannot start and it has no output error even when I run it directly on the terminal.

java -jar /var/lib/tomcat/webapps/rasdaman.war
log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.springframework.web.context.support.StandardServletEnvironment).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.
log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more info.

Here is the application class https://pastebin.com/rinWbp9z, this web application uses Liquibase to populate database schema and Spring boot version 1.5.2. Can you please share some hint to debug?

So, the problem is, I'm using log4.properties out of war file. Then, when I starts this war, It shows very nice information like this:

java -jar target/petascope_main/rasdaman.war
log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.springframework.web.context.support.StandardServletEnvironment).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.
log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more info.

Then, I added a log4j.properties file in src/main/resources with this content:

log4j.rootLogger=debug, stdout
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.Target=System.out
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%t %-5p %c{2} - %m%n

After that, I can see the detail log from Spring which make Tomcat stop:

Action:

Consider marking one of the beans as @Primary, updating the consumer to accept multiple beans, or using @Qualifier to identify the bean that should be consumed

Well, I must say, it is really impressive about how error could be hidden.

It seems, your configuration for logback is correct !

When you configure your logback-spring.xml after that the logs does not appear on the console. Instead, you need to go to the LOG_HOME location which you configured in your logback-spring.xml file.

All the logs will be in file and not on console.

Please let me know if this solves your problem.
