How to disable Keep alive in SpringBoot application in docker image

We have a Web application with following technologies: Java, SpringBoot, Docker, Microservices, Jhipster.
The port number for the frontend container is 80.

I am trying to disable keep alive option for the frontend microservice because SSO Authentication Server requires this parameter set to be false.

I tried to create the front container with maven : mvn -Pqpm,no-liquibase -Dhttp.keepAlive=false clean verify jib:dockerBuild

I also tried to disable in pom.xml of the front container :

<http.keepAlive>false</http.keepAlive>
<https.keepAlive>false</https.keepAlive>

But the keep-alive option remains enabled when I send a http request :

Connecting to qwerty.xyz|10.10.219.200|:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 
  HTTP/1.1 200 OK

My Springboot config:

<!-- Dependency versions -->
<jhipster-dependencies.version>3.0.1</jhipster-dependencies.version>
<!-- The spring-boot version should match the one managed by
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.github.jhipster/jhipster-dependencies/${jhipster-dependencies.version} -->
<spring-boot.version>2.1.4.RELEASE</spring-boot.version>

Could you please help me to disable it ?

I finally found a solution. The way we did this was to implement a filter and add this filter to SecurityConfig.config method.

	KeepAliveFilter.java

	public class KeepAliveFilter implements Filter {
		public void init(final FilterConfig filterConfig) { }

		public void destroy() { }

		public void doFilter(final ServletRequest request, final ServletResponse response, final FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
			final HttpServletResponse httpResponse = (HttpServletResponse) response;
			httpResponse.setHeader("Connection", "close");
			chain.doFilter(request, response);
		}
	}

	SecurityConfiguration.java

	private final KeepAliveFilter keepAliveFilter;

	public SecurityConfiguration(final KeepAliveFilter keepAliveFilter, ...) 
	{
		this.keepAliveFilter = keepAliveFilter;
	...
	// other property
	}

	@Override
	protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
		http
			.csrf()
			.csrfTokenRepository(CookieCsrfTokenRepository.withHttpOnlyFalse())
			.and()
			.addFilterBefore(corsFilter, CsrfFilter.class)
			.addFilterBefore(keepAliveFilter, CsrfFilter.class)
			;
	}

You can disable it in your spring application.properties file, for my case I'm using a yaml config file, so in my application.yml file I did:

server:
  undertow:
    always-set-keep-alive: false
