Spring Boot – Error creating bean with name ‘dataSource’ defined in class path resource

I have Spring Boot web application. It’s centered around RESTful approach. All configuration seems in place but for some reason MainController fails to handle request. It results in 404 error. How to fix it?

@Controller
public class MainController {

    @Autowired
    ParserService parserService;

    @RequestMapping(value="/", method= RequestMethod.GET)
    public @ResponseBody String displayStartPage(){
        return "{hello}";
    }
}

Application

@Configuration
@ComponentScan(basePackages = "")
@EnableAutoConfiguration
public class Application extends SpringBootServletInitializer{
        public static void main(final String[] args) {
            SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
        }

        @Override
        protected final SpringApplicationBuilder configure(final SpringApplicationBuilder application) {
            return application.sources(Application.class);
        }
}

ParserController

@RestController
public class ParserController {

    @Autowired
    private ParserService parserService;

    @Autowired
    private RecordDao recordDao;

 private static final Logger LOG = Logger.getLogger(ParserController.class);

    @RequestMapping(value="/upload", method= RequestMethod.POST)
    public @ResponseBody String fileUploadPage(
   }
}

UPDATE

Seems like MySQL cannot be initialized by Spring….

    Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.orm.jpa.HibernateJpaAutoConfiguration': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; 

nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: private javax.sql.DataSource org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.orm.jpa.JpaBaseConfiguration.dataSource;

UPDATE2

application.properties

    # Database 
    spring.datasource.driverClassName = com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
    spring.datasource.url = jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/logparser
    spring.datasource.username = root
    spring.datasource.password = root
    
    spring.jpa.database = MYSQL
    spring.jpa.show-sql = true
    
    # Hibernate
    hibernate.dialect: org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5Dialect
    hibernate.show_sql: true
    hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto: update
    entitymanager.packagesToScan: /

UPDATE4

Seems lite controllers not responding eventhough @RequestMapping are set. Why might it be?

PS. It occurs when I run Maven’s lifecycle test. When running in degub mode in IntelliJ there is no error outputted.

UPDATE5

Also I use this DAO as explained in tutorial….

public interface RecordDao extends CrudRepository<Record, Long> {
}

UPDATE6

I did changed my application properties. And tried every single combination but it refuses to work. ;(

Answer

Looks like the initial problem is with the auto-config.

If you don’t need the datasource, simply remove it from the auto-config process:

@EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude={DataSourceAutoConfiguration.class})

Edit: If using @SpringBootApplication in your main class:

@SpringBootApplication(exclude={DataSourceAutoConfiguration.class})
