spring-boot web demo failed jboss deployment - maven

Question

Based on latest (2.0.0.M3) I've prepared sample application which worked on embedded Tomcat, but failed deployment on JBoss 7, as follows:
JBAS014777: Services which failed to start: service jboss.web.deployment.default-host./SpringBootNoTomcatBasic:
org.jboss.msc.service.StartException in service jboss.web.deployment.default-host./SpringBootNoTomcatBasic: org.jboss.msc
.service.StartException in anonymous service: JBAS018040: Failed to start context
Since the message related to some anonymous service not sure how to proceed.
Below is my pom.xml file followed by the application main:

Answer 1

At the very least you need to add
<packaging>war</packaging>
to your pom.xml
And modify your main class to be a SpringBootServletInitializer:
#SpringBootApplication
public class Application extends SpringBootServletInitializer {
#Override
protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder application) {
return application.sources(Application.class);
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
}
}
You will probably need something like jboss-web.xml. Not sure if it's required though.
Please read the Traditional Deployment docs.
