org.springframework.boot.web.support does not exist

Question

I'm changing build systems from maven to gradle for a spring boot project. I get this stacktrace

19:03:08: Executing external task 'bootRun'... /home/dac/proj/spring-boot-master/spring-boot-samples/spring-boot-sample-jetty-jsp/src/main/java/sample/jetty/jsp/SampleJettyJspApplication.java:22: error: package org.springframework.boot.web.support does not exist import org.springframework.boot.web.support.SpringBootServletInitializer;                                            ^ /home/dac/proj/spring-boot-master/spring-boot-samples/spring-boot-sample-jetty-jsp/src/main/java/sample/jetty/jsp/SampleJettyJspApplication.java:25: error: cannot find symbol public class SampleJettyJspApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer {                                                ^   symbol: class SpringBootServletInitializer /home/dac/proj/spring-boot-master/spring-boot-samples/spring-boot-sample-jetty-jsp/src/main/java/sample/jetty/jsp/SampleJettyJspApplication.java:27: error: method does not override or implement a method from a supertype     @Override     ^ 3 errors :compileJava FAILED  FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.  * What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':compileJava'. > Compilation failed; see the compiler error output for details.  * Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace.

How should I make the package available to gradle?

Answer 1

You are using org.springframework.boot.context.web.SpringBootServletInitializer this is deprecated. Instead:

Use

org.springframework.boot.web.support.SpringBootServletInitializer

For SpringBoot 2.0

org.springframework.boot.web.servlet.support.SpringBootServletInitializer
