Spring boot App can't turn on from console as .jar

Question

My SpringBoot app works good if I run her from InteliJ, but when I'm trying to open from console as .jar I got:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No auto configuration classes found in META-INF/spring.factories.

I found just 1 topic on Stack about this, and no helps me click

It is my pom.xml

What can be wrong ? How I should do ? If u have question, pls ask in comment.

I have @SpringBootApplication in main class

Just remove the repackage goal, and the fork and mainClass configurations and try again. Spring boot will find the right class annotated with @SpringBootApplication — Strelok, Jun 11 '18 at 13:21
What’s the JAR name that you’re running? Is your main class annotated with @SpringBootApplication? — Strelok, Jun 11 '18 at 13:37
yes, I have annotated, my JAR name is this same as project InteliJ - mysqlrestservice.jar — companyn2, Jun 11 '18 at 13:38
How are you running the jar and/or how are you building the jar? — M. Deinum, Jun 11 '18 at 17:05

in console ? 'mvn' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. – companyn2 Jun 11 '18 at 13:33
do you have mvnw.bat file in the project directory – mano_ksp Jun 11 '18 at 13:34
else install maven and set maven class path – mano_ksp Jun 11 '18 at 13:36
I dont have, for sure in META-INF or WEB-INF ? – companyn2 Jun 11 '18 at 13:36
install maven and try – mano_ksp Jun 11 '18 at 13:38
BUILD FAILURE after mvn spring-boot:run – companyn2 Jun 11 '18 at 13:57
did you executed the cmd in directory where pom.xml is located – mano_ksp Jun 11 '18 at 14:00
ok, we have progress ! is there only this way to run app ? why i cannot turn on this from java -jar myapp.jar without mvn ? – companyn2 Jun 11 '18 at 14:18
I think if you want to run using java then you have to set required parameters and classpath jars. Intellij automatically set these things for you. if you see the exact cmd(first line in console greyed.click to reveal) Intellij is executing then you will have idea how to execute. – mano_ksp Jun 11 '18 at 14:25
@acxz94 my Manifest.mf have only 1 line with Main-class, maybe here should be something more ? – companyn2 Jun 11 '18 at 15:03
I don't think so. This is what intellij executes when I run application - https://pastebin.com/9eGmy9yS. – mano_ksp Jun 11 '18 at 15:22

Ensure that your pom has the following:

<packaging>jar</packaging>

with these dependencies:

<dependencies>

Get Maven to update project, as well as snapshots and releases.

Run Maven 'clean install'.

nothing, still can run app only in InteliJ, from jar this same error — companyn2, Jun 11 '18 at 14:10
Don't mess around with the assembly plugin if anything it will make things worse. — M. Deinum, Jun 11 '18 at 17:05
