java class:

package bootSample;

import org.springframework.boot.*;

@Controller
@EnableAutoConfiguration

        return "Hello World!";
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        SpringApplication.run(SampleController.class, args);

properties file:

 server.compression.enabled: true
 server.compression.min-response-size: 1

Looks like you have a problem with your property file. can you add it please — Jens, Jan 14 '16 at 17:52
You're using some very old version of spring boot. It's even some milestone. You should update to some full stable version. You can use http://start.spring.io/ or Spring tool suite. — Evgeni Dimitrov, Jan 14 '16 at 19:05

There are two things which i see might be the problem

1.The version of springboot you are using its very old, the current version is 1.3 and there is no need of any milestones to that

2.The properties for the server you are using might have some problem , try removing it or post ur full properties file such that we can help .
