Issue

• While trying to use "org.springframework.boot.context.web.SpringBootServletInitializer" inside EAP 6.2.2, The application throws 404 Error when the resource is accessed. Where as the same application works fine in WildFly 8.1 (8.0).

• A Workaround of using the "org.springframework.web.WebApplicationInitializer" (rather than using the SpringBootServletInitializer) resolves the issue in EAP 6.x and the application is accessible.

  • 1) Is "org.springframework.boot.context.web.SpringBootServletInitializer" usage supported in EAP6 ?
  • 2) Why the same application works fine in WildFly 8.1 but responds with 404 error in EAP 6.2.2 (6.x).
  • 3). Why "SpringBootServletInitializer" behaves little differently in this case compared to WildFly 8
