Springfox 3.0.0 is not working with Spring Boot 2.6.0, after upgrading I am getting the following error

Only adding @EnableWebMvc in main class resolved the problem:

@EnableWebMvc
@SpringBootApplication
public class MyApp {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(MyApp.class);
    }
}

I know this does not solve your problem directly, but consider moving to springdoc which most recent release supports Spring Boot 2.6.0. Springfox is so buggy at this point that is a pain to use. I've moved to springdoc 2 years ago because of its Spring WebFlux support and I am very happy about it. Additionally, it also supports Kotlin Coroutines, which I am not sure Springfox does.

If you decide to migrate, springdoc even has a migration guide.
