I can't diagnose your problem from the description you gave, but I think
that using 'localhost' in your workspace URIs is a red herring[1].
GeoServer does not actually make requests to the workspace URIS and as
long as they are unique their values don't really affect GeoServer's
operation.
Perhaps a good next step would be for you to post a screen capture of the
erroneous page? Are there any errors in GeoServer's log files?
