title: Does having spring-boot-actuator changes the context root of the spring application?
body: <p>According to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26913087/use-spring-boot-actuator-without-a-spring-boot-application">this post</a>, by having the <code>spring-boot-actuator</code> dependency in <code>pom.xml</code>, I could benefits from the <code>actuator</code> endpoints. However, I observed it breaks my existing my spring application (It is not a spring-boot application).</p>
  <p>I added the following to my dependency in pom.xml</p>
  <pre><code>      &lt;dependency&gt;
              &lt;groupId&gt;org.springframework.boot&lt;/groupId&gt;
              &lt;artifactId&gt;spring-boot-actuator&lt;/artifactId&gt;
              &lt;version&gt;1.2.5.RELEASE&lt;/version&gt;
         &lt;/dependency&gt;
  </code></pre>
  <p>Thats it. I did not make any changes to application yet.
  I started the container using <code>maven-t7-plugin</code>.
  Now my application endpoint <code>http://localhost:8010/mycontext/foo</code> is returning 404. I commented out the above <code>dependency</code> in <code>pom.xml</code>.
  Now my application returns <code>200 OK</code> for the above request.</p>
  <p>Kindly help troubleshoot me as what is going wrong. I could not find any obvious reasons.</p>
  <p>Thanks</p>
