this is my main class

package com.cicd.demo;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.builder.SpringApplicationBuilder;
import org.springframework.boot.web.servlet.support.SpringBootServletInitializer;

@SpringBootApplication
public class DemoApplication extends SpringBootServletInitializer {
    @Override
    protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder application) {
       return application.sources(DemoApplication.class);
    }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
       SpringApplication.run(DemoApplication.class, args);
    }

}

This is my rest controller class:
`package com.cicd.demo.controller;

package com.cicd.demo.controller;

import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.GetMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;

@RestController
public class homeController {
    @GetMapping("/")
    public String home() {
        return "Hello World";
    }
}

After building it creates targetdemo.war file

I have added this file to my webapps folder in tomcat server. But the http://localhost:8080/demo/ do not work. can anyone help me. It’s totally new to me.

How can I fix this issue.
