Tomcat Container on Azure Part 2

Posted by GitteTitter on December 20, 2017

In a previous post I ran a docker container on Azure Container Instance. In this post, I will reuse this container and run it on Web Apps on Containers.

For this we will create a new Web app on containers in the Azure portal.

Give your webapp a unique name, select a resource group or create a new one, create a new app service plan and link your container.

Once the app has been created, open this resource in the Azure portal. Last step you need is add a app setting for the 8080 port.

That’s it. Once this is done, you can click the URL of your app in the overview tab and this will show you the same Tomcat admin page.
