Deploy Jhipster on clevercloud - maven

Question

I'm deploying a Jhipster application on Clevercloud.
I have set up some configuration:
war.json
{
"build": {
"type": "maven",
"goal": "package -Pprod -DskipTests"
},
"deploy": {
"goal": "package -Pprod -DskipTests",
"container": "TOMCAT8",
"war": [
{
"file": "target/myapp-1.0.0.war"
}
]
}
}
maven.json
{
"build": {
"type": "maven",
"goal": "package -Pprod -DskipTests"
},
"deploy": {
"goal": "package -Pprod -DskipTests"
}
}
I have modified the application-prod.yml to include the url/username/password of the db add-on.
When I deploy, the deployment is successfull but the application is not running.
On the application page I have 404 error.
The DB is correctly initialised.
In the logs I have the following messages that I don't understand or I'm not able to solve:
multiple times this message

I have done nothing else except following Clevercloud documentation to deploy
Have I miss something in the configuration?
(For info, the application is deploying well on other platform like Heroku or Pivotal)

Answer 1

To deploy a jhipster application on Clevercloud.
Here is what worked for me.
I have followed the indications given to create an application and deploy it using the CLI
Configuration files:
clevercloud/war.json
{
"build": {
"type": "maven",
"goal": "package -Pprod -DskipTests"
},
"deploy": {
"jarName": "target/myapp-1.0.0.war"
}
}
clevercloud/maven.json
{
"build": {
"type": "maven",
"goal": "package -Pprod -DskipTests"
},
"deploy": {
"goal": "package -Pprod -DskipTests"
}
}
I modified my application-prod.yml to link the db.
