[FIXED] How to deploy my Spring Boot application in these circumstances?

Issue

Introduction

I have a VPS CENTOS 7.9 kvm running WHM and cPanel v98.0.7.

I have a spring boot application to be deployed.

This application was made to be deployed in a sub-domain of a hosted domain in this WHM.

Problem

How do I deploy a spring boot application to a subdomain in cPanel on my VPS?

Solution

This solution applied to my hostgator VPS. Consider:

ACCOUNT_NAME to be your account name; DOMAIN_NAME to be your domain name. It can also be a subdomain;

1. Backup your apache settings:

   cp -vp /etc/apache2/conf/httpd.conf{,-BKP}

2. Uncomment the lines of include in the vhost of the domain. Do it for the HTTP(std) and for the HTTPS(ssl):

   vim /etc/apache2/conf/httpd.conf

3. Once you accessed the file, search the following lines and remove the #

   Include "/etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/std/2_4/ACCOUNT_NAME/DOMAIN_NAME/.conf" Include "/etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/ssl/2_4/ACCOUNT_NAME/DOMAIN_NAME/.conf"

4. Create the following directories:

   mkdir -p /etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/std/2_4/ACCOUNT_NAME/DOMAIN_NAME mkdir -p /etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/ssl/2_4/ACCOUNT_NAME/DOMAIN_NAME

5. Create a .conf for std and ssl.

   vim /etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/std/2_4/ACCOUNT_NAME/DOMAIN_NAME/ACCOUNT_NAME.conf

   vim /etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/ssl/2_4/ACCOUNT_NAME/DOMAIN_NAME/ACCOUNT_NAME.conf

6. /etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/std/2_4/ACCOUNT_NAME/DOMAIN_NAME/ACCOUNT_NAME.conf

   RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301] ProxyPass "/" "http://DOMAIN_NAME:10002/"

7. /etc/apache2/conf.d/userdata/ssl/2_4/ACCOUNT_NAME/DOMAIN_NAME/ACCOUNT_NAME.conf

   ProxyPass "/" "http://DOMAIN_NAME:10002/"

8. Once you are done, restart the httpd service. service httpd restart
