    @RequestMapping(value = "/index", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public String index() {
        return "###";

}

The spring-boot-starter-web dependency already brings in spring-web 4.3.8. Have you tried removing your spring-web dependency referencing 4.3.7? — Sean Carroll

(1) In controller, you don't do that

return "###";

(2) Remove

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-web</artifactId>
    <version>4.3.7.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

Because inside

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
</dependency>

already included spring-web dependency.
