Spring Boot Application Error

I am doing my first project with Spring Boot. I am getting the below error which I do not have clue about.Am I missing any dependency in build.gradle shown below?I am getting the error when I am running the Application.java file.

    org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextException: Unable to start embedded container; nested exception is org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextException: Unable to start EmbeddedWebApplicationContext due to missing EmbeddedServletContainerFactory bean.

        ... 8 common frames omitted

Below are my configuration files.

    **//Application.java**

        package com.test.route;

        import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;

        import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
        import org.springframework.boot.builder.SpringApplicationBuilder;
        import org.springframework.boot.context.web.SpringBootServletInitializer;

        @SpringBootApplication
        public class Application extends SpringBootServletInitializer{

            public static void main(String[] args) {
                SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
            }
            protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(

                    SpringApplicationBuilder application) {

                return application.sources

    (Application.class);

        }
    }

//build.gradle

    buildscript {
        repositories {
            mavenCentral()
        }
        dependencies {
            classpath("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:1.3.3.RELEASE")
        }
    }
    apply plugin: 'war'
    apply plugin: 'java'
    apply plugin: 'spring-boot'



    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    sourceCompatibility = 1.7
    targetCompatibility = 1.7

    dependencies {
         compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web")
         {

            exclude module: 'spring-boot-starter-tomcat'


        }



        // tag::actuator[]
        //compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator")
        compile("org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core")
        // end::actuator[]
        // tag::tests[]
        //testCompile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test")
        // end::tests[]
    }

    task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
        gradleVersion = '2.3'
    }

//application.properties

    server.servlet-path= /app
    logging.level.org.springframework=DEBUG
    spring.mvc.view.prefix=/WEB-INF/jsp/
    spring.mvc.view.suffix=.jsp
    cookie.path=
    cookie.domain=

What am I missing in my configuration?

I see, you've excluded spring-boot-starter-tomcat from spring-boot-starter-web for some reason and added org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core as dependency.

According to the exception, you don't have a bean EmbeddedServletContainerFactory. It seems to me, that this bean (exact TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory) is created in some configuration within spring-boot-starter-tomcat dependency. So it seems, that you have to leave spring-boot-starter-tomcat or you will have to create this bean by your self.
