Error with Spring BOOT

I am running a simple desktop application using Spring BOOT. Below is the error stack:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'defaultServletHandlerMapping' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/web/WebMvcAutoConfiguration$EnableWebMvcConfiguration.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.springframework.web.servlet.HandlerMapping]: Factory method 'defaultServletHandlerMapping' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: A ServletContext is required to configure default servlet handling

My Main class:

package com.pb.relay;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.jdbc.DataSourceAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.retry.annotation.EnableRetry;
import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.EnableAsync;
import org.springframework.scheduling.annotation.EnableScheduling;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.config.annotation.EnableWebMvc;

@Configuration
@ComponentScan
@EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude = { DataSourceAutoConfiguration.class })
@EnableAsync
@EnableRetry
@EnableScheduling
public class RelayDesktopApp {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            SpringApplication app = new SpringApplication(RelayDesktopApp.class);
            app.setHeadless(false);
            app.run(args);
        } catch (Throwable t) {
            System.err.println(t.getMessage());
        }
    }
}

Not sure what is cause of this error: Error creating bean with name 'defaultServletHandlerMapping'. I have NO where any @EnableWebMvc annotaions.

Any feedback ?

I use springboot and added following to application.properties file to overcome this exception:

spring.autoconfigure.exclude=org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.web.servlet.WebMvcAutoConfiguration,org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.web.servlet.error.ErrorMvcAutoConfiguration,

The same idea than Avis but in configuration file: 

spring:
  autoconfigure:
    exclude:
      - org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.web.servlet.WebMvcAutoConfiguration

By default SpringApplication, will deduce whether or not you're building a web application based on what's on the classpath. If you have some Web-related dependencies on the classpath but aren't building a web application, you can explicitly tell SpringApplication that you don't want a web application:

app.setWebEnvironment(false);

This is preferable to explicitly disabling Web-related auto-configuration as it means you don't need to know what those auto-configuration classes are and lets Spring Boot take care of it for you.

@EnableAutoConfiguration also does auto configs for WebMvc, so pls exclude this as well :-

@EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude = { DataSourceAutoConfiguration.class,WebMvcAutoConfiguration.class })
