Activiti6 use spring-boot-starter-web meet requestMappingHandlerMapping error

[slarkchen1]

I get some reply from other site, the spring-boot team think activiti 6 is not compatible with spring-boot 2.0.

Cause activit 6 released in 26 May 2017. The integrated spring-boot version must be older one. 

So, Maybe i can:

1) Use early version of activiti + spring-boot

2) Use activiti 6 + spring-boot 2.0 but try to use early version of starter-web

3) Try to use activiti 7, but activiti 7 seems a different way to use from the early version of activiti.

Hello everyone.

I meet trouble with Activiti 6 and spring-boot-starter-web.

Env:

1. Activiti 6.0.0
2. Spring-boot 2.0
3. Windows 10 64Bit

Here is my codes: https://github.com/cybfly/activiti-demo

Question is, activiti6 works fine with spring-boot-starter-basic,

but if i add spring-boot-starter-web in my pom.xml, i meet with this error:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException:
Error creating bean with name 'requestMappingHandlerMapping' defined in class path resource
[org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/web/servlet/WebMvcAutoConfiguration$EnableWebMvcConfiguration.class]:
Invocation of init method failed;
nested exception is java.lang.ArrayStoreException: sun.reflect.annotation.TypeNotPresentExceptionProxy

Yes v6 wasn't written for boot 2.0 and v7 is. We've been making EA releases of v7 available ahead of the v7 beta. You could try using the starter-configure, which is currently the nearest equivalent in Activiti 7 to the old starter-basic: Maven Repository: org.activiti.cloud » activiti-cloud-starter-configure » 7-201802-EA

Thanks，and i found someone use this trip to avoid this error by exclude SecurityAutoConfiguration.class

and it really works, though i do not know what bad things it might leads to：

import org.activiti.spring.boot.SecurityAutoConfiguration;

@SpringBootApplication(exclude = SecurityAutoConfiguration.class)
