ClassNotFoundException: javax.servlet.ServletContext when running Application.main() from Intellij

[mvysny]

Hi, I can't seem to run this project in Intellij, it always fails on me. Java openjdk 1.8.0_222, Intellij 2019.2.1.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Checkout platform-14
2. Right-click on the Application class in Intellij and select "Run Application.main()"

Note that I do not have Spring plugin installed in my Intellij 2019.2.1 - could this be the problem?

[mvysny]

I've installed the Spring Boot plugin, did not help.

I wonder if Intellij somehow computes a different classpath than Maven when running Spring Boot...

Removing also the <scope>provided</scope> for spring-boot-starter-tomcat helped. I guess the Spring Boot Maven plugin provides those artifacts.

Anyway, could be useful to have instructions for this in the README - if you want to run this as main() method, you need to modify the pom.xml.
