Hi Varun, My hosts file contains this:
127.0.1.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 tiger # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts 66.163.181.184 scs.msg.yahoo.com I tried commenting "::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback", but it did not work. Also, i run Drupal using a different server, and it works properly when i say http://localhost/Drupal Regards, Kartik Nayak On Fri, Jul 3, 2009 at 2:11 PM, Varun Jain <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Karthik, > > You can check the hosts file inside etc directory.There may be two entries > for the localhost > 127.0.0.1 and 127.0.0.1::1.You an try commenting the latter one.It is > possible that IPv6 is turned on and it is resolving localhost to the ::1 > address .Since the port 3000 is currently active hence the connection can't > be established message might be appearing. > > Cheers, > Varun :) > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > > > > ------------------------------------ > > http://twincling.org/ > http://twitter.com/twincling > ---------------------------------------- > Yahoo!
