Description

I'm facing a weird exception involving ConverterRegisteringWebMvcConfigurer.

I posted my problem here.

I tried all things I could think about without any luck. I'm not sure it's a bug, but for sure the error message is quite weird:

Field restTemplate in cloud.test.server.rest.clients.TenantRestClient required a single bean, but 2 were found: - org.springframework.hateoas.config.ConverterRegisteringWebMvcConfigurer#0: defined in null - org.springframework.hateoas.config.ConverterRegisteringWebMvcConfigurer#1: defined in null

As described in my question, my code works until Spring Boot 2.0.3.

Research direction

Start with the reported duplicate ConverterRegisteringWebMvcConfigurer exception and read the linked Stack Overflow question for the reproduction details. Compare the behavior between Spring Boot 2.0.3 and 2.1.1; done means identifying why two RestTemplate-related beans are created and resolving the misleading or duplicate-bean failure.
