I am strugging to deploy a Spring Boot War Application (with Tiles views) on JBoss EAP 6.4. This application runs smoothly on Tomcat 8 but when I deploy it on JBoss it doesn't answer. The startup logs are OK but when I call a controller from the browser I get error JBWEB000065. I happens both deploying from Eclipse STS and putting the war in standalone/deployments.

Calling http://localhost:8080/boot3/home on the browser shows the following with nothing appearing on the JBoss logs;
JBWEB000065: HTTP Status 404 - /boot3/error
JBWEB000309: type JBWEB000067: Status report
JBWEB000068: message /boot3/error

JBoss Web/7.5.7.Final-redhat-1
UPDATE: I found a solution on Stackoverflow but it useless in my case: using server.servlet-path=/* the application starts processing the requests, now the controller is invoked BUT it's unable to render the Tiles views:
Cannot forward to error page for request [/home] as the response has already been committed. As a result, the response may have the wrong status code. If your application is running on WebSphere Application Server you may be able to resolve this problem by setting com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.invokeFlushAfterService to false
I have checked on Tomcat that if I use server-servlet-path/* it doesn't work either (with the same error) but it does with /.
To sum up, in JBoss I cannot have both server.servlet-path=/* (to allow the invocation on controllers) and server.servlet-path=/ to allow the Tiles views rendering, so how can I workaround this problem?
