Answer 1

Just stating @Blauhirn's comment, WebMvcConfigurerAdapter is deprecated as of version 5.0:

Deprecated as of 5.0 WebMvcConfigurer has default methods (made possible by a Java 8 baseline) and can be implemented directly without the need for this adapter

Refer to the new way to do it:

@Configuration
public class WebMvcConfig implements WebMvcConfigurer {

    @Override
    public void addInterceptors(InterceptorRegistry registry) {
        registry.addInterceptor(new MyCustomInterceptor())
        // Optional
        .addPathPatterns("/myendpoint");
    }
}

Plus, as stated here, do not annotate this with @EnableWebMvc, if you want to keep Spring Boot auto configuration for MVC.
