Can I see how the java package was changed? To be resolve.

Answer 1

Spring Boot 2.0 uses Spring Framework 5.0 where the support for JasperReports was removed. The package org.springframework.web.servlet.view.jasperreports is no longer available.

As per Upgrading to Spring Framework 5.x:

The Spring Framework no longer supports: Portlet, Velocity, JasperReports, XMLBeans, JDO, Guava (replaced by the Caffeine support). If those are critical to your project, you should stay on Spring Framework 4.3.x (supported until 2020). Alternatively, you may create custom adapter classes in your own project (possibly derived from Spring Framework 4.x).
