Hello,  
I’m trying to setup a temporal workflow using spring boot.  
I’ve defined activities as beans, etc. Basically was following the examples from temporal git.

Workflow starts, but throws following errors in logs:

```auto

```

Any ideas what could go wrong?

Hi @Volodymyr_Konoval

> `Local Activity Worker is not started, no activities were registered`

it seems the activity implementation is not registered to the worker

> I’ve defined activities as beans, etc. Basically was following the examples from temporal git.

Can you check if you are either:

- setting the the correct package for activities [sdk-java/temporal-spring-boot-autoconfigure-alpha at master · temporalio/sdk-java · GitHub](https://github.com/temporalio/sdk-java/tree/master/temporal-spring-boot-autoconfigure-alpha#explicit-configuration)
- or if you are using workersAutoDiscovery, those activities are inside the package
