Spring Boot Component Scan not working
Solution 1
Your application is clearly expecting a command line argument and you're not supplying any.
Solution 2
You have to use the @Component
annotation something like below:
@ComponentScan({"com.springboot.helloworld","service"})
Solution 3
I had this issue after switching to spring 5. The problem was that an annotation processor was being run at build time to generate some helper classes, a side effect of this was that a file, spring.properties was generated. This got deployed to META-INF. When spring 5 scans for components, it checks to see if this file exists (as a resource loaded by the class loader), if it exists then it only considers the classes listed in the file when looking for components. In my case the annotation processor that generated the file wasn't looking for components, so the component classes weren't in the file. The fix was to delete the file. Without the file, then the component scanning works as expected.

I have created a sample Spring Boot application that runs perfectly fine when service classes are all in one package , but if a Service class refers to another service class in a different package then I get the BeanCreationException
The Code for the Application is given below
Main.java
@SpringBootApplication public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { SpringApplication.run(Main.class, args); } }
MyRunner
@Component @ComponentScan(basePackages ="com.springboot.helloworld") public class MyRunner implements CommandLineRunner { @Autowired private GreeterService greeterService; @Override public void run(String... args) throws Exception { System.out.println(greeterService.greetGuest("John Doe")); } }
GreeterService and GreeterServiceImpl are in com.springboot.helloworld.Greeter
@Service public class GreeterServiceImpl implements GreeterService { @Autowired Sample service; @Override public String greetGuest(String greeter) { if (greeter == null) { return "Looged in as Guest"; } return "Hello " + greeter + " How are you?"; } }
Sample and SampleImpl are in different Package com.springboot.helloworld.Sampler
Error Recieved is
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'greeterServiceImpl': Injection of autowired dependencies failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: com.springboot.helloworld.Sampler.Sample com.springboot.helloworld.Greeter.GreeterServiceImpl.service; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No qualifying bean of type [com.springboot.helloworld.Sampler.Sample] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency.

Shawn Sherwood over 8 yearsHave you tried passing it an arg? Looks like the code is expecting an arg[0] which would need to be passed in on the command line.
