Spring Boot application gives 404 when deployed to Tomcat but works with embedded server

I had forgotten to tweak my Application.java file to extend SpringBootServletInitializer and override the configure method.

Corrected file:

@SpringBootApplication
public class Application extends SpringBootServletInitializer {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
      SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
  }

  @Override
  protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder builder) {
      return builder.sources(Application.class);
  }
}

Hat tip to https://mtdevuk.com/2015/07/16/how-to-make-a-spring-boot-jar-into-a-war-to-deploy-on-tomcat/ for pointing out my mistake.
