Spring Zeebe version 8.4.0 does not work with Spring boot 2.7.18

[msjo66]

Description

Version compatibility section in README, Spring Zeebe version 8.4.0 or higher is compatible with Spring Boot version 2.7.x or higher. But when I tested using this pom.xml, It throws error at io.camunda.common.auth.DefaultNoopAuthentication that can not authenticate (self managed, no authentication, plaintext).

It worked when I change Spring Zeebe version to 8.3.4 and Spring Boot version 2.7.18 or Spring Zeebe version to 8.4.0 and Spring Boot version 3.2.2

So, I guess Spring Zeebe version 8.4.0 is not compatible to 2.7.x

@msjo66 are you looking for compatibility or just an update to the matrix?

[msjo66]

I hope Zeebe would be compatible with Spring boot 2.7 as it seems that Spring boot 2.7 still maintained and widely used.

Do we expect to have compatibility with Spring Boot 2.7.x?
Spring Boot 3.x has major changes and it is not straight forward upgrade for critical applications.

[msjo66]

I'm not sure how many clients would upgrade their Spring Boot application with timeline. But 2.7 is planned to support untile 2025 mid.
