无法在Wildfly 8 AS中部署Spring Boot应用程序

Question

I am new to Spring Boot and am facing problem in deploying Spring Boot application to Wildfly 8 server. I followed some links found in internet to deploy Spring Boot application as war file but did not work.

My pom.xml file is as below:

<?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"

                </exclusion>
            </exclusions>
        </dependency>

          <artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
          <scope>provided</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

</project>

My starter class is as below:

package com.example.demo;

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

@SpringBootApplication
public class DemoApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer  {

    @Override
    protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder application) {
        return application.sources(DemoApplication.class);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(DemoApplication.class, args);
    }
}

I have exposed a Rest method and the Rest Controller looks as below:

package com.example.demo.controller;

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

    @RestController
    @RequestMapping("/hello")
    public class HelloController {
        @RequestMapping("/sayHello")
        public String sayHello( ) {
            return "hello";
        }
    }

My project runs in embedded tomcat but not in Wildfly server. Please help.

If you are not getting any exception while deploying the application, try to access the application by hitting the following URL and check if it works:
http://<>:<>/ name_of_your_war /hello/sayHello
