Solved: access to localhost:8080 fails
Hello Harry, You are right. When i took the issue to our IT, they asked me to run a script on my comp that solved the problem. This script has probably tweaked the firewall to allow localhost to run. Feeling good that the problem stands solved that I can continue with my work now but the magic will remain unknow to me. Kind Regards, Krish On Mon, Mar 29, 2010 at 7:02 AM, Harry Metske harry.met...@gmail.comwrote: I have seen similar issues on our corporate (XP and Vista) laptops, somebody decided that the locally running firewall should also block access to localhost. I think you should first verify if that's the case. I'm not a Windows expert, so I don't know how to check if the above is the case. If you are allowed to give the netstat command, try the suggestion from Charles (netstat -ano), if you see status SYN_SENT, it's for sure a firewall issue. regards, Harry 2010/3/28 Krishanu Biswas biswas.krish...@googlemail.com Chuck: To verify the network issue, I installed Tomcat on my personal laptop.

access to localhost:8080 fails
Hello, I've a 6.0.26 (latest) Tomcat installed on my laptop (windows vista ulltimate). When inside corporate network, it works. In home network, it doesn't. Strange enough that it does not work even when the laptop stands alone (not connected to any network). Accessing http://localhost:8080results in: ERROR_INTERNET_CANNOT_CONNECT as seen with HttpWatch. The request does not reach the server (hence no log). server.xml has not been changed. netstat -ab shows the following processes: TCP0.0.0.0:8009 hostname:0LISTENING [java.exe] TCP0.0.0.0:8080 hostname:0LISTENING [java.exe] : Windows Sockets initialization failed: 5 TCP[::]:8009 WDFN00224028A:0LISTENING [java.exe] TCP[::]:8080 WDFN00224028A:0LISTENING [java.exe] Windows host file has the following entries: 127.0.0.1 localhost ::1 localhost Using java version 1.6.0_18 The problem appears to be very strange to me. Did a lot of searching on the web before this post. Nothing helped. I'm sure that this is not a new problem and hoping that one of you have already solved such an issue. Cheers, Krish

In what folder is this Tomcat instance installed? Tomcat is installed under C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0 With what user account it runs? Administrator Do you run it as a service, or starting from a *.bat file, or from inside an IDE? I tried both but the result is same. There are two vista-related items on the FAQ page here: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/Windows#Q8 Thank you for your reply Konstantin. This is my first post to the forum.

When inside corporate network, it works. Can you explain how exactly it works ? what URL are you using then, from where ? what are you seeing then ? http://localhost:8080 OR http://127.0.0.1:8080 works in one network (corporate) and the same does not work in a different network (my home network - wireless network for home from T-phone) In home network, it doesn't. Same questions. In my home network, I'm connected to via a router to the internet. The point is that Tomcat is installed locally on my laptop and it should work without any such connectivity. Unfortunately it doesn't. Strange enough that it does not work even when the laptop stands alone (not connected to any network). Accessing http://localhost:8080results in: ERROR_INTERNET_CANNOT_CONNECT as seen with HttpWatch. The request does not reach the server (hence no log). I presume this URL really is : http://localhost:8080/results , right ? That was a formatting mistake. I meant only http://localhost:8080 This request to the local server results in ERROR_INTERNET_CANNOT_CONNECT as seen with HttpWatch. server.xml has not been changed. netstat -ab shows the following processes: TCP0.0.0.0:8009 hostname:0LISTENING [java.exe] TCP0.0.0.0:8080 hostname:0LISTENING [java.exe] : Windows Sockets initialization failed: 5 What does that mean ? What is is in the Tomcat logs, corresponding to this error ? TCP[::]:8009 WDFN00224028A:0LISTENING [java.exe] TCP[::]:8080 WDFN00224028A:0LISTENING [java.exe] Windows host file has the following entries: 127.0.0.1 localhost ::1 localhost Using java version 1.6.0_18 The problem appears to be very strange to me. Did a lot of searching on the web before this post. Nothing helped. I'm sure that this is not a new problem and hoping that one of you have already solved such an issue. Is the Windows firewall or anything similar enabled (AUP or whatever it's called) ? If you do NOT start the Tomcat Service, and do a netstat -ab, what do you see then ? Thank you for helping me on this. The same setup on the same laptop will start working tomorrow when I am connected to corporate network. This is a corporate laptop and windows firewall is installed. But I am not sure where should I look in to check if this firewall is the blocker. Moreover, I may not be allowed to turn this firewall off even if it is required. By the way, i turned it off temporariry (for 5 mins, hope nothing has happened in between) but the situation did not change. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
