Run Spring Boot webapp using appengineRun

Question

When running gradle task appengineRun, my current spring boot projects boots up (two times!?) but can't be accessed via localhost (jetty):

INFORMATION: javax.servlet.ServletContext log: 2 Spring WebApplicationInitializers detected on classpath
13:47:12 INFO  [de.deepsource.container.ServletInitializer] : Starting WettkampfDB via SpringBootServletInitializer

I haven't figure out why two WebApplicationInitializers are in my classpath:

INFORMATION: javax.servlet.ServletContext log: 2 Spring WebApplicationInitializers detected on classpath

My Server.class:

@Log4j2
@SpringBootApplication

@EnableAsync
@EnableWebMvc
@EnableCaching
@EnableWebSecurity
@EnableHypermediaSupport(type = {EnableHypermediaSupport.HypermediaType.HAL})
@EnableAutoConfiguration

@ComponentScan("de.deepsource")
@EntityScan("de.deepsource")
@EnableJpaRepositories("de.deepsource")

@EnableGlobalMethodSecurity(prePostEnabled = true)
public class Server
{
    public static void main (String[] args)
    {
        log.info("Starting WettkampfDB via MainClass");
        SpringApplication.run(Server.class, args);
    }
}

My ServletInitializer.class:

@Log4j2
public class ServletInitializer extends SpringBootServletInitializer
{
    @Override
    protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure (SpringApplicationBuilder application)
    {
        log.info("Starting WettkampfDB via SpringBootServletInitializer");
        log.debug(application);
        return application.sources(Server.class);
    }
}

When accessing localhost:4000 I get Http-Status 500 saying: "all instances of module default are busy"

Update 1

I moved the war to a standalone jetty location. It still logs that 2 Spring WebApplicationInitializers detected on classpath but jetty only boots up one instance that works perfectly on localhost:8080/servlet-name

Update 2

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Answer 1

Found this and this posts where they have similar issues. It seems that is a coding or configuration issue. I recommend following the official quickstart to have the basics up and running and work from that point on.
