I have a spring boot project that compiles and works fine when i run it from 2015.3 IDE but not from 2016.1, it crashes at startup but it is because the configuration seems to be broken. What i have found is the following:
- it seems that from within the ide 2016 the application.properties file is not honoured, i can see in the app logs that the profile is not set, while an active profile is actually sets in the aforementioned file
- i can rebuild the project without problems
- the compiled jar works if invoked from command line
- the application.properties is in the src/main/resources folder (which is marked as a resource folder)
- the very same project works (always had) if i run it from 2015 IDEA
P.S. i am running the IDE on linux 64bit with oracle jdk 1.8.0.u77
I had the same problem. My colleague found workaround, where you need to switch from Gradle wrapper to use local installation of Gradle.
Also full rebuild is needed probably.
