Spring boot admin server exception

Question

I am trying to add @EnableAdminServer in spring boot application. I am added below three dependencies into my project

 <dependency>
        <groupId>de.codecentric</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-admin-server</artifactId>
        <version>1.2.0</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>de.codecentric</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-admin-server-ui</artifactId>
        <version>1.2.0</version>
    </dependency>

     <dependency>
        <groupId>de.codecentric</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-admin-client</artifactId>
        <version>1.1.2</version>
    </dependency>

Normally the application works but when I trying to build using mvn package it throws below exception

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'de.codecentric.boot.admin.config.AdminServerWebConfiguration$RevereseZuulProxyConfiguration$RoutesEndpointConfiguration': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: private org.springframework.cloud.netflix.zuul.filters.ProxyRouteLocator de.codecentric.boot.admin.config.AdminServerWebConfiguration$RevereseZuulProxyConfiguration$RoutesEndpointConfiguration.routeLocator; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'de.codecentric.boot.admin.config.AdminServerWebConfiguration$RevereseZuulProxyConfiguration': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: private org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.web.ServerProperties de.codecentric.boot.admin.config.AdminServerWebConfiguration$RevereseZuulProxyConfiguration.server; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.web.ServerProperties] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency.

Answer 1

I just hit this issue when I installed the spring-boot-admin server in a vanilla spring boot app.

The problem was caused by a default generated test for the main class. I just deleted the test (as it didn't test anything useful) and then it all worked nicely.

Hope this helps.
