[FIXED] How to exclude embeded Tomcat in Spring Boot application

Issue

How can we exclude embedded Tomcat server from Spring Boot application so that we can run that jar on JBoss Server?

Solution

You can exclude in pom file:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
    <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
            <artifactId>tomcat-embed-el</artifactId>
            <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.embed</groupId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <artifactId>tomcat-embed-core</artifactId>
            <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.embed</groupId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <artifactId>tomcat-embed-websocket</artifactId>
            <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.embed</groupId>
        </exclusion>
    </exclusions>
</dependency>
