[JBoss] Wildfly 34 context root forbidden

I’m trying to deploy my Spring Boot app on WildFly 34, but when I click on the context root, it gives me a forbidden error. If I add the path for the REST API, it shows "not found." I’m working with Spring Boot 2.7.2 and Java 17. I’ve tried using both javax and jakarta dependencies, but I’m still getting the same result. Below I’m attaching the pom file, the controller, and the application.

the controller

package com.iet.testing.registro.trattamenti.be.controller;

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

@RestController
public class HelloWorldController {

private final String HELLO_WORLD= "Hello, world!";
@GetMapping("/hello")
public String printHelloWorld(){
return HELLO_WORLD;
}
}


and the application.java

package com.iet.testing.registro.trattamenti.be;

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;
import org.springframework.web.WebApplicationInitializer;

@SpringBootApplication
public class Application
extends SpringBootServletInitializer
implements WebApplicationInitializer {
@Override
protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder application) {
return application.sources(Application.class);
}

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
}
}



I tried excluding the Tomcat dependency, or using only javax or only jakarta, but in the logs, I still get the same result.
