Once your application finishes you should close spring application context . Below is example:
Downcast ApplicationContext to ConfigurableApplicationContext which has close() method:
((ConfigurableApplicationContext)appCtx).close();
OR:
You can also cast to AbstractApplicationContext and register shutdown with JVM:
((AbstractApplicationContext)applicationContext).registerShutdownHook();
OR:
cast to AbstractApplicationContext and call close() method:
((AbstractApplicationContext)applicationContext).close();
