Description

This is similar to #319 . Application created using http://start.spring.io with gateway dependency and with additional spring-cloud-gateway-mvc fails.

 <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-cloud-gateway-mvc</artifactId>
  </dependency>

If spring-boot-starter-web is not compatible, then what is the purpose of this dependency?

Error:

Consider defining a bean of type 'org.springframework.http.codec.ServerCodecConfigurer' in your configuration.
