Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 84,738 PointsI don’t have an ‘application’ folder under Gradle projects > giflib >Tasks. What am I doing wrong?
Here is a screenshot of my Gradle projects sidebar: http://imgur.com/a/rTzwc In the video at 2:55 there is an application folder with a bootRun file that we need to go forward that I don’t have. What do I need to do?
AppConfig.java
package com.teamtreehouse.giflib;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
@EnableAutoConfiguration
public class AppConfig {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(AppConfig.class, args);
}
}
build.gradle
group 'com.teamtreehouse'
version '1.0-SNAPSHOT'
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:1.2.6.RELEASE'
}
}
apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'spring-boot'
sourceCompatibility = 1.5
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
compile 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web:1.2.6.RELEASE'
}
```

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 84,738 PointsNo errors or warnings, but there is a new Run Configurations folder that has appeared: http://imgur.com/a/yEOgr Maybe I need to run a program inside there instead.

56,415 PointsTry checking under "Other".

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 84,738 PointsNo luck in there either: http://imgur.com/a/306sR I'm stumped.

56,415 PointsHmmm... I notice there's an odd Unicode character at the end of your listing for build.gradle that causes an error if I try to include it. try removing any blank lines after the last dependencies block. You can also try running gradle manually in the terminal from the project directory:
# On Windows:
gradlew.bat bootRun
#on Linux/Mac
./gradlew bootRun

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 84,738 PointsThat's it! I removed the whitespace at the end of the file and refreshed and then the Application folder appeared.
Seth Kroger
56,415 PointsWoot! Glad it's fixed!
