No ServletContext set when initiating resourceHandlerMapping bean

Question

I am getting this error on startup of a Spring Boot 1.5.14 application:

Here's the (what I thinK) related configuration of the application:

@Configuration
public class WebSecurityConfiguration extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {

    @Override
    protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {

        http
                .csrf()
                .disable()
                .authorizeRequests()
                .anyRequest().fullyAuthenticated()
                .and().headers().frameOptions().sameOrigin()
                .and().requestCache().requestCache(new NullRequestCache())
                .and()
                .addFilterBefore(authorizationFilter(), UsernamePasswordAuthenticationFilter.class)
                .addFilterBefore(authenticationFilter(), CredentialsExpiredAuthorizationFilter.class);
    }

    @Bean
    public CredentialsExpiredAuthorizationFilter authorizationFilter(){
        return new CredentialsExpiredAuthorizationFilter();
    }

    @Bean
    public ClientAuthenticationFilter authenticationFilter(){
        return new ClientAuthenticationFilter(clientDao);
    }

    @Bean
    public AuthenticationDetailsSource<HttpServletRequest, IpWebAuthenticationDetails> authenticationDetailsSource() {
        return new IpAuthenticationDetailsSource();
    }
}

and

@Configuration
public class WebMvcConfiguration extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {

    @Bean
    public LocaleResolver localeResolver(){
        final AcceptHeaderLocaleResolver resolver = new AcceptHeaderLocaleResolver();
        resolver.setDefaultLocale(Locale.US);
        return resolver;
    }

    @Bean
    public MessageSource messageSource() {
        return new ResourceBundleMessageSource();
    }      
}

apart from the above @Configuration classes, I have a couple of -quite irrelevant- configuration classes. I don't have @EnableWebMvc anywhere, though extending WebMvcConfigurerAdapter seems to automatically bring it in. If I exclude WebMvcAutoConfiguration with

@EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude = { WebMvcAutoConfiguration.class })

on my @SpringBootApplication, the error becomes:

and adding @EnableWebMvc to a @Configuration class doesn't seem to help. There are some references on SO an github to the same exception, thought they did not help:

https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-security-oauth/issues/1392 (Tried, both not extending WebMvcConfigurerAdapter and even not defining MessageSource bean didn't help)
Spring 5 - No ServletContext set exception (I am not creating a MVC related bean)
ugrade spring boot 2.0.0.RC2 exception No ServletContext set (Same as first)
Spring Boot with AclPermissionEvaluator resulting in IllegalStateException: No ServletContext set (Splitting MethodConfiguration into it's own class didn't help)
- And there are a couple of more questions that are not remotely related to our issue or doesn't have an answer.

Happy to provide further related details, just need guidance on what to provide. How do I get rid of the exception?

Can you post a proof-of-concept minimal project on a public source repository (like Github)? — , Oct 03 '19 at 06:33
you dont have enough here for us to help. Spring Boot is highly highly dependant on annotations used, dependencies in the project, and the configurations in play. You are only showing us a very limited view of your security chain, which makes it hard to see what modules youve turned on or configured. My suspicion is that you've not only 'not turned on', but have explicitly excluded MVC and yet are trying to use MVC classes which are not loaded in the context you're using for the security chain — Stephan, Oct 04 '19 at 20:42
@Stephan, you are wrong. Actually, that was my initial thought as well. I couldn't have posted all of my config as it would be a very long question, and if you noticed, that's why I specifically asked for guidance on what to provide further. But my assumption was wrong and a simple check of dependencies showed me that I had circular dependency problem, which resolved Mvc configuration to be postponed. — Hasan Can Saral, Oct 05 '19 at 14:50

It turned out to be a (somewhat circular) dependency problem. I was creating a @Bean in a @Configuration class that has @PostConstruct method, that's required by Mvc configuration. This was actually delaying the creation of Mvc related configuration and context. Since there's no other @Configration classes left, Spring starts to configure security, which requires Mvc context, which in return, threw this exception.

In my case I was creating a `MessageSource` bean on a Spring Security configuration. I moved it to another configuration class and that fixed it. – David Rochin Sep 09 '20 at 16:35
In my case, a @Value in the same class that provided the customizer caused the same issue – Philippe Sevestre Jan 18 '21 at 23:15
In my case it was because I was creating the PasswordEncoder bean in the same class as the WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter. Moving it to another configuration class and injecting it later on worked for me. – scorpfrog Jul 14 '22 at 10:34

how do you find what is the real source since the answer and comments seems to be in different places ? – Daniel Benedykt Feb 04 '23 at 01:12

I was getting the same error when trying to enable H2 console. My initial Spring Security config was:

@EnableWebSecurity
@EnableGlobalMethodSecurity(
        securedEnabled = true,
        jsr250Enabled = true,
        prePostEnabled = true
)

After removing the 2 I didn't need, the app started normally:

@EnableWebSecurity
@EnableGlobalMethodSecurity(
        prePostEnabled = true
)

Great catch! As I was following this tutorial (https://www.toptal.com/spring/spring-security-tutorial) to add Spring Security and JWTs to my application I was getting this error so I had to remove secureEnabled and jsr250Enabled – Al Pal Feb 14 '22 at 22:19

Change WebApplicationInitializer to load all configuration from the root context:

@Override
 protected Class<?>[] getRootConfigClasses() {
    return new Class[] {AppConfig.class, SpringMVCRestConfig.class};
}
@Override
protected Class<?>[] getServletConfigClasses() {
    return null;
}

This didn't help, I'm afraid, I had a fairly complex `@Configuration` and somewhat circular dependency, when I resolved it, the exception went away. – Hasan Can Saral Oct 03 '19 at 14:38
