  <p>The following application.properties file located at classpath root:</p>
  
  <pre><code>management.address: 127.0.0.1
  management.port: 8081
  endpoints.shutdown.enabled: true
  security.require_ssl: false
  shell.ssh.enabled: false
  spring.jmx.enabled: false
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And the following application main/config:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Configuration
  @EnableAutoConfiguration
  @EnableConfigurationProperties
  @ComponentScan
  public class SampleJettyApplication {
  
      public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
          SpringApplication.run(SampleJettyApplication.class, args);
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I was expecting the management facilities to be available on 127.0.0.1:8081 i.e.</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://127.0.0.1:8081/health
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But nothing loads on the endpoint, what have I done wrong?</p>
  
  <p>Updated: Startup logs</p>
