If you are using Servlet2 for example, you have to Register WebjarsServlet in your web.xml :

<!--Webjars Servlet-->
<servlet>
    <servlet-name>WebjarsServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.webjars.servlet.WebjarsServlet</servlet-class>
    <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>WebjarsServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/webjars/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Please refer to documentation to config correctly webjars with other frameworks spring-boot... http://www.webjars.org/documentation
