SpringBoot - making jar files - No auto configuration classes found in META-INF/spring.factories
JavaSpringIntellij IdeaSpring BootJava Problem Overview
Everything was working fine when starting my app using IntelliJ. But when I made a fat jar and executed it with
java -jar myapp.jar
I got this:
16:37:44.194 [main] ERROR org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication - Application startup failed
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Failed to process import candidates for configuration class [pl.mypackage.Main]; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No auto configuration classes found in META-INF/spring.factories.

It looks like it doesn't found auto configuration classes in META-INF/spring.factories
. How to add it, and what should be the content of this file?
Java Solutions
Solution 1 - Java
I had the same problem and just solved it.
At first, I was generating the fat jar with the maven-assembly-plugin
, which created a file called mavenproject1-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar
. This file gave the same problem as you mentioned when I tried running it.
I think that because it's a Spring Boot application, you need to use their plug-in. I changed my packaging to the spring-boot-maven-plugin
and it generates two files: mavenproject1-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
and mavenproject1-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar.original
. Just try java -jar target/mavenproject1-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
, and it will hopefully work. :-)

Solution 2 - Java
This is the solution :
-
add only plugin in POM.xml
<build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <fork>true</fork> <mainClass>${start-class}</mainClass> </configuration> <executions> <execution> <goals> <goal>repackage</goal> </goals> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins>
-
One property in pom.xml
<properties> <start-class>com.xxx.yyy.MainClass</start-class> </properties>
-
Run command
mvn clean package spring-boot:repackage
-
Now run your jar (it includes all dependencies now) created inside target folder
java -jar my-service-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
Solution 3 - Java
Alternatively, if you cannot use the spring boot plugin for whatever reason, you can include the following file in your application. It should be called src/main/resources/META-INF/spring.factories
:
This will work for spring boot 1.x and is helpful if you want to use spring managed beans in a REPL.
Solution 4 - Java
This configuration works for me. I execute my JAR as a service but the line is:
javaw -jar MY_JAR.jar
POM:
<properties>
<!-- Spring boot main class -->
<start-class>com.PATH_TO_MAIN.Main</start-class>
</properties>
...
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
With Spring Boot, it is no longer necessary to use the assembly-plugin. Do not forget to call the package goal.
Here is the documentation example.
Solution 5 - Java
I have added this configuration in my pom and the issue got resolved:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.5.2.RELEASE</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>repackage</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Solution 6 - Java
For those of us new to IntelliJ, Spring, and Maven:
If you want to build a jar in IntelliJ, chances are you are using IntelliJ's build system: build, build artifacts, etc. However, that's not Maven. What you need is for Maven - not IntelliJ - to build it for you. To do this, you want to bring up the Maven panel in IntelliJ (under View => Tool Windows => Maven toward the bottom), and double click "package". Voila!
Solution 7 - Java
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No auto configuration classes found in META-INF/spring.factories. If you are using a custom packaging, make sure that file is correct.
From above it seems that your packageing is not properly done. I know I'm late but it might help someone else.
Solution
Please check your @SpringBootApplication
class shoud have base package all above the other classes. For example, let's your class @SpringBootApplication
is inside a package com.sb.foo
then all other spring stereotype classes should goes inside com.sb.foo.xxx
where xxx
can be anything. It can be further sub package com.sb.foo.xxx.yyy
. This is a functionality of SpringBoot to enable Auto Configuration. This auto configuration works fine with IDE's like Intellij
or Eclipse
even if you have made the mistake.
The chances of facing such problem will be more if you're not using any building tool or recommeded IDEs like STS eclipse
for development.
Solution 8 - Java
Below POM works for me , this will allow you to have assembelled package with all dependency involved.
Add this at the start of your POM
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>com.xyz.test</groupId>
<artifactId>test</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<packaging>jar</packaging>
<name>test</name>
<parent>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
<version>2.5.3</version>
</parent>
Add this plugin
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<fork>true</fork>
<mainClass>com.xyz.test</mainClass>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>repackage</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
command to run
- To check run -
mvn spring-boot:run
- to make fat jar -
mvn clean package
- to run jar -
java -jar /target/jar-file-name.jar
Solution 9 - Java
You could add the spring.factories file to your META-INF folder. The spring.factories file for Spring version 2.0.4 is located here: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/blob/v2.0.4.RELEASE/spring-boot-project/spring-boot-autoconfigure/src/main/resources/META-INF/spring.factories
Solution 10 - Java
spring.factories is loaded by the AutoConfigurationImportSelector class in spring-boot-autoconfigure. This walks the context classloader for all resources of type META-INF/spring.factories.
To get spring boot to work after shading the jar, I simulated the same by merging the contents of all available spring.factories files into a single spring.factories file in my own jar's META-INF folder.
Here's my current spring.factories file:

Solution 11 - Java
I encountered the same problem:
IllegalArgumentException: No auto configuration classes found in META-INF/spring.factories.
with Java 9, spring boot 2.0.0, springboot-javafx-support 2.1.6. I tried both maven and gradle 4 on the same project.
For me the fix was packaging the jar with java 8.
Solution 12 - Java
Solution 13 - Java
This error is because you are exporting the jar by eclipse.
Soluction: after mvn clean install
, just to use the jar generated in target folder
Solution 14 - Java
Alternatively, use eclipse IDE to run create jar file
Solution 15 - Java
Alternatively, you can use this;
click -> run as maven clean
-> run as maven install
and your jar in /yourProjectFolder/target/yourProjectName-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
java -jar yourProjectName-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
