title: Spring cloud Eureka error when running
body: <p>I'm trying to create a Spring cloud Eureka server with the pom below, largely derived from <a href="https://github.com/joshlong/service-registration-and-discovery" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/joshlong/service-registration-and-discovery</a></p>
  
  <p>However, I'm getting "Error creating bean with name 'viewControllerHandlerMapping'" error, caused by "java.lang.IllegalStateException: The resources may not be accessed if they are not currently started".</p>
  
  <p>Which I think may have to do with versions for various Jersey components pulled being 1.11 and 1.13, although I don't see any single jar being pulled twice. Other than that, I have no clue why. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!</p>
