Spring Boot Application Tomcat Server not running

I have the following code in my CourseApiApp.java file: 

package io.myapp.hellospringboot;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication
public class CourseApiApp {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        SpringApplication.run(CourseApiApp.class, args);

    }

}

When I press the play button I see the following console messages: 

main] i.a.hellospringboot.CourseApiApp         : Starting CourseApiApp on johndoe-MacBook-Pro.local with PID 22730 (/Users/johndoe/Documents/workspace-sts-3.8.4.RELEASE/com.myapp.hello-spring-boot/target/classes started by john doe in /Users/johndoe/Documents/workspace-sts-3.8.4.RELEASE/com.myapp.hello-spring-boot)

UPDATE: Here is the POM.xml file: 

<parent>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
        <version>1.5.2.RELEASE</version>
    </parent>

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
        </dependency>

    </dependencies>

    <properties>
        <java.version>1.8</java.version>
    </properties>

And my GreetingController.java file: 

import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.PathVariable;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;

@RestController
public class GreetingController {

    @RequestMapping("/hello/{name}")
      String hello(@PathVariable String name) {
        return "Hello, " + name + "!";
      }

}

This almost drove me nuts. Well, looking at @PhilWebb's comment above:

That either means your classpath is wrong (no Tomcat) or you have a property set that's disabling web support.

I had to go back to my Application class and discovered I was doing this:

 public static void main(String[] args) {


        new SpringApplicationBuilder(OasisEstoreManagerApiApplication.class)
                .web(WebApplicationType.NONE)
                .run(args);
    }

I had set the WebApplicationType to NONE

I changed it to WebApplicationType.SERVLET and it worked.

This was after I had tried everything including deleting the .m2 directory.

Hope this helps someone.

Please delete the files in .m2 repository.
Mainly delete the files from the following location:
C:\Users\{UserName}\.m2\repository\org\apache

Again build application by updating the POM file and issue gets resolved.

I faced the same issue due to corrupt jar files so I decided to use latest spring boot dependencies and its worked fine. All you need to update your POM file and build again.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

You must add a dependency to file pom.xml :

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
</dependency>

The root cause was a corrupt jar in the maven cache. Deleting ~/.m2/repository solved the issue.

Another option would have been to run mvn dependency:purge-local-repository
