how to configure Embedded Tomcat virtual host for Spring Boot Application?

i have a multiple domains on my centos vps (domains running on apache http server via virtual host configurations). and also same vps, i want to add my new domain but that domain will route my spring boot application (application is a jar file also inside embedded tomcat ). i couldn't find any configuration for embedded tomcat specific domains and ports.

standalone Tomcat i can make configuration via server.xml file like this image

also this short tutorial shows configuration for stadalone tomcat Tomcat Virtual Host Configuration

But how can i do that configuration for embedded Tomcat ? Any suggestion ?

It depends. 2 ways to deploy your project.jar as you want to :

First way : You can use the "apache web server" and his own "mod_proxy" in order to serve as many Spring webapps you want to, each on a specific port configured with "php-fpm" and with a proxy defined to route requests from/to your namebased VirtualHost configuration.

Nowadays, with Spring Boot 2.5, all you have to do is to set the property server.port in your application.properties file, and use it accordingly with mod_proxy directives. If you are using profile, you can either set one port to dev or prod or test or whatever properties file you need.

Another way to proceed : you can use the apache web server "mod_jk" bridge module to configure multiple load-balancers for your Virtualhosts too.

Choose your path, young Jedi ;)

This response is certainly not for the OP, 7 years later, but for other people whom are using any web search engine like Google. They will come here and see "something is impossible". It is not true.

With Spring Boot embedded Tomcat, you are hosting only one application per servlet container. So I don't believe that Tomcat's concept of Virtual Hosts make sense at all.

If you have to host your app on shared Tomcat instance, just build WAR without embedded container.
