Answer 1

There are two ways to solve this problem.

i. Disable jmx

ii. set default-domain and unique name( its required if you want to enable jmx and have multiple instance of same application)

For disable jmx:

application.yml:

spring:
  jmx:
    enabled: false

or application.properties:

spring.jmx.enabled= false

Set below properties if need to enable jmx.

application.yml:

spring:
  jmx:
    default-domain: com.application.name
    unique-names: true

or application.properties:

spring.jmx.default-domain=com.application.name
