I just wrote a Springboot application as a testing Webserver which origins from spring.io. It packaged initially in "jar", changed it to "war" file. And get the application class code as below:
package com.ronzhong;
import org.springframework.boot.Banner.Mode;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.builder.SpringApplicationBuilder;
import org.springframework.boot.web.servlet.support.SpringBootServletInitializer;
import org.springframework.web.context.WebApplicationContext;
@SpringBootApplication(scanBasePackages={"com.ronzhong.libraryManagement"})
public class LibraryManagementApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer {
@Override
protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder application) {
application.application().setBannerMode(Mode.OFF);
return application.sources(SpringApplicationBuilder.class);
}
protected WebApplicationContext run(SpringApplication application) {
return (WebApplicationContext) application.run();
}
// public static void main(String[] args) {
// SpringApplication.run(LibraryManagementApplication.class, args);
//}
}
and the controller is :
package com.ronzhong.libraryManagement;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
import org.springframework.http.MediaType;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.CrossOrigin;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.*;
//@CrossOrigin(origins = "http://localhost:4200", maxAge = 3600)
@RestController
@RequestMapping("/api")
public class CounterController {
@Autowired
private BookService bookService;
@PostMapping
public boolean add(@RequestBody Book book){
return bookService.add(book);
}
@RequestMapping(value = "/books", method = RequestMethod.GET, produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
public Book[] get(){
return bookService.getBooks();
}
@RequestMapping(value = "{id}", method = RequestMethod.GET, produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
public Book findOne(@PathVariable("id") int id){
return bookService.findById(id);
}
}
And I also checked the "Dynamic Web Module" in the project facets. Finally, I got these logs when launch tomcat server with this war file generated.

There're no mappings info in the logs. And if I request with http://localhost:8080/api/books, it will get 404 error. But the logs hasn't change even a little. So I googled the potential causes, and excluded those causes temporarily:
Anyone can help me? very appreciate for your answer, thanks in advance.
From the logs, I can see that your war file name is library-Management, whichh means its deloyed under this folder, as logs states. So you should check http://localhost:8080/library-Management/api/books instead.
You get 404 from Tomcat, it doesnt hit your app at all, this is ehy you dont see any logs.
