Context Path not being read from application.properties file

[AkhtarShahid]

-I added an application.properties file in resource folder which has contextPath defined in that like
server.contextPath=/db/makeCall. But when i deploy the application in local tomcat then it ignores context Path and just takes war file name in context path. But the same application when i use with embedded tomcat then it takes the contexPath from application.properties file.

yes, all the tomcat properties (including port, contextpat etc..) set in application.properties are applicable only to embedded tomcat, which is used when bootRun target is used..
