# Boot start-up failure for a constructor cycle: --spring.profiles.active=ctor-cycle ERROR --- o.s.b.d.LoggingFailureAnalysisReporter : *************************** APPLICATION FAILED TO START *************************** Description: The dependencies of some of the beans in the application context form a cycle: ┌─────┐ | bootCycles.CtorOne defined in URL [jar:nested:target/core-di-1.0.0.jar/!BOOT-INF/classes/!/com/ankurm/coredi/boot/BootCycles$CtorOne.class] ↑ ↓ | bootCycles.CtorTwo defined in URL [jar:nested:target/core-di-1.0.0.jar/!BOOT-INF/classes/!/com/ankurm/coredi/boot/BootCycles$CtorTwo.class] └─────┘ Action: Relying upon circular references is discouraged and they are prohibited by default. Update your application to remove the dependency cycle between beans. As a last resort, it may be possible to break the cycle automatically by setting spring.main.allow-circular-references to true.
