It looks like IntelliJ has made a mess of the classpath. Looking at the jars supplied with -classpath there's a lot of Spring Boot 1.0.2.RELEASE jars in there which doesn't match your pom.

The banner in the startup logs also shows that you're running Spring Boot 1.0.2.RELEASE:

  .   ____          _            __ _ _
 /\\ / ___'_ __ _ _(_)_ __  __ _ \ \ \ \
( ( )\___ | '_ | '_| | '_ \/ _` | \ \ \ \
 \\/  ___)| |_)| | | | | || (_| |  ) ) ) )
  '  |____| .__|_| |_|_| |_\__, | / / / /
 =========|_|==============|___/=/_/_/_/
 :: Spring Boot ::        (v1.0.2.RELEASE)

Convincing IntelliJ to use the right classpath, or running your application on the command line with mvn spring-boot:run should fix your problem, although I strongly suspect that you'll also need to add a dependency on spring-webmvc:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-webmvc</artifactId>
</dependency>

Solution 2

As you want to get the health status via HTTP, you may want to add this dependency and have a try:

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

Solution 3

The simplest answer is, rather than point the request to

http://127.0.0.1:8081/health

Point to

http://127.0.0.1:8081/actuator/health

The following application.properties file located at classpath root:

management.address: 127.0.0.1
management.port: 8081
endpoints.shutdown.enabled: true
security.require_ssl: false
shell.ssh.enabled: false
spring.jmx.enabled: false

And the following application main/config:

@Configuration
@EnableAutoConfiguration
@EnableConfigurationProperties
@ComponentScan
public class SampleJettyApplication {

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

I was expecting the management facilities to be available on 127.0.0.1:8081 i.e.

http://127.0.0.1:8081/health

But nothing loads on the endpoint, what have I done wrong?

Thank you for this. I just hit this problem as well, on spring-boot 1.4.2 & Intellij 2016.3.2. The actuator endoints simply aren't being picked up when run from within the IDE.
