Spring cloud starter task : AnnotationConfigApplicationContext has been closed already

Question

Building new project using spring batch and Spring cloud tasks using spring boot application.

I am getting following error while doing the integration with Spring Cloud Flow Tasks.

Here is the error:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: org.springframework.context.annotation.AnnotationConfigApplicationContext@45c2f888 has been closed already at org.springframework.context.support.AbstractApplicationContext.assertBeanFactoryActive(AbstractApplicationContext.java:1073) at org.springframework.context.support.AbstractApplicationContext.getBean(AbstractApplicationContext.java:1106) at org.springframework.boot.devtools.autoconfigure.ConditionEvaluationDeltaLoggingListener.onApplicationEvent(ConditionEvaluationDeltaLoggingListener.java:43) at org.springframework.boot.devtools.autoconfigure.ConditionEvaluationDeltaLoggingListener.onApplicationEvent(ConditionEvaluationDeltaLoggingListener.java:33) at org.springframework.context.event.SimpleApplicationEventMulticaster.doInvokeListener(SimpleApplicationEventMulticaster.java:172) at org.springframework.context.event.SimpleApplicationEventMulticaster.invokeListener(SimpleApplicationEventMulticaster.java:165) at org.springframework.context.event.SimpleApplicationEventMulticaster.multicastEvent(SimpleApplicationEventMulticaster.java:139) at org.springframework.context.support.AbstractApplicationContext.publishEvent(AbstractApplicationContext.java:400) at org.springframework.context.support.AbstractApplicationContext.publishEvent(AbstractApplicationContext.java:354) at org.springframework.boot.context.event.EventPublishingRunListener.running(EventPublishingRunListener.java:103) at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplicationRunListeners.running(SpringApplicationRunListeners.java:78) at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.run(SpringApplication.java:343) at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.run(SpringApplication.java:1255) at org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication.run(SpringApplication.java:1243) at com.ranker.batch_v2.BatchV2Application.main(BatchV2Application.java:14) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:62) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:498) at org.springframework.boot.devtools.restart.RestartLauncher.run(RestartLauncher.java:49)
