No errors, but mapping does not work Spring boot + tomcat 8.0

I wanted to create a tiny app running on spring boot. When I package it into a jar file the app runs smoothly on my local machine. I decided to deploy it on AWS elastic beanstalk, so I did the changes needed for creation of .war file (https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/howto-traditional-deployment.html)

I wanted to try it running on my local TOMCAT. So i placed the war file in the webapps directory, and run the Tomcat 8.0\bin\Tomcat8.exe

The logs in the console look ok, there is even an info that the /hello route got mapped. The server runs, but when I enter the localhost:8080/hello nothing is returned. No error, just an empty page.

I think the issue is with the URL you are using. Because you are now deploying on a standalone Tomcat, your war will be deployed under a context that commonly matches the war file name, unless you specify the context in the application.properties. Can you provide your application.properties.

You can set the context in application.properties this way:

server.contextPath=/<whatever>

Otherwise, I'm betting your URL would be accessed like this as is:

/superheroes-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT/hello
