Spring Boot Not Finding Any Controllers - spring

Question

Hello i've tried to create a simple controller and put it in the same package with the main class but it looks like it's not finding it.Basically, when i run the app it's not mapping the endpoint.
I just can't figure out what is wrong with it.
Here is the code:
package com.example.demo;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
#SpringBootApplication
public class TestProject1Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(TestProject1Application.class, args);
}
}
package com.example.demo.controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;
#RestController
public class HomeController {
#RequestMapping(value="/hello", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String sayHello() {
return "HELLO";
}
}

Although in your log, I do not see 'ServletRegistrationBean' getting initialized, I find no issue with your configuration. Try execute the Spring boot app again & you should be able to invoke the HomeController via 'localhost:8080/hello'.
