Can we change the default port of the embedded Tomcat server in Spring boot?
Answer»
Yes, we can change it by using the application properties file by adding a PROPERTY of server.port and assigning it to any port you wish to.
For EXAMPLE, if you want the port to be 8081, then you have to mention server.port=8081. Once the port number is mentioned, the application properties file will be AUTOMATICALLY loaded by Spring Boot and the specified configurations will be APPLIED to the application.
