Spring启动web启动程序找不到jsp

文件结构：

app
  -build.gradle
  -src/
    -main/
      -java
        {source code}
      -resources
        -application.properties
      -webapp
        -WEB-INF
          -jsp
            -index.jsp

以下是核心代码段：build.gradle：

buildscript {
    ext {
        springBootVersion = '1.2.3.RELEASE'
    }
    repositories {
        maven { url "http://repo.spring.io/libs-snapshot" }
        mavenLocal()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:1.2.3.RELEASE")
    }
}

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'eclipse'
apply plugin: 'idea'
apply plugin: 'spring-boot'
apply plugin: 'war'
apply plugin: 'application'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven { url "http://repo.spring.io/libs-snapshot" }
    maven { url "http://maven.springframework.org/milestone" }
}

dependencies {
    compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web:${springBootVersion}")
    compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-tomcat:${springBootVersion}")
    compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test:${springBootVersion}")
    compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa:${springBootVersion}")
    compile("org.springframework.data:spring-data-rest-webmvc")
    compile("org.hsqldb:hsqldb")

compile("com.google.guava:guava:17.0")
compile("org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.3.4")
compile("com.squareup.retrofit:retrofit:1.6.0")
compile("commons-io:commons-io:2.4")
compile("org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:3.4")

testCompile("junit:junit")

}

sourceCompatibility = 1.7
targetCompatibility = 1.7

war {
    baseName = 'gs-convert-jar-to-war'
    version =  '0.1.0'
}

task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
    gradleVersion = '2.3'
}

包根目录下的Application.java：

@SpringBootApplication
@EnableWebMvc
public class Application {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
    }

}

ViewController.java：

@Controller
public class ViewController {

    @RequestMapping("/")
    public String welcome(Map<String, Object> model) {
        model.put("time", new Date());
        model.put("message", "hellop");
        return "index";
    }
}

application.properties：

spring.view.prefix: /WEB-INF/jsp/
spring.view.suffix: .jsp

但是当我在浏览器上转到http://localhost:8080时出现500错误：

我在spring文档中发现使用jsp有一些限制：http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/1.1.x/reference/html/boot-features-developing-web-applications.html#boot-features-jsp-limitations

但是我真的不确定这是否是原因以及如何解决它们 . 任何建议将不胜感激 . 提前致谢 .
