How to configure port for a Spring Boot application

Question

How do I configure the TCP/IP port listened on by a Spring Boot application, so it does not use the default port of 8080.

Answer 1

1. As everyone said, you can specify in application.properties
   server.port = 9000 (could be any other value)

2. If you are using spring actuator in your project, by default it points to
   8080, and if you want to change it, then in application.properties mention
   management.port = 9001 (could be any other value)
