Failed to configure a DataSource: ‘url’ attribute is not specified and no embedded datasource could be configured

by

I am working on a Spring Boot Batch example with MongoDB and I have already started the mongod server.

When I launch my application, I am getting the error below.

Any pointers for this issue?

***************************
APPLICATION FAILED TO START

Description:

Failed to configure a DataSource: 'url' attribute is not specified and no embedded datasource could be configured.

Reason: Failed to determine a suitable driver class


Action:

Consider the following:
    If you want an embedded database (H2, HSQL or Derby), please put it on the classpath.
    If you have database settings to be loaded from a particular profile you may need to activate it (no profiles are currently active).

application.properties:

# Mongo database URI. Cannot be set with host, port and credentials.
spring.data.mongodb.uri=mongodb://localhost/test

Just add : @SpringBootApplication(exclude = {DataSourceAutoConfiguration.class })
works for me.

I was getting same error I tried with @EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude=...) didn’t work.
