Localhost is exactly that - local host. So unless you're running Tomcat on your phone, you will not be able to access the web application via http://localhost:8080/your-app. What I do to test mobile applications on Tomcat is the following: 1. Make sure port 8080 is open in the firewall (at least to the local network) 2. Start up Tomcat and deploy the application 3. Connect my phone to my local WiFi network 4. Browse to http://ip-address:8080/my-app One of these days I'll set up my router to do internal DNS. For now, the IP address is sufficient. Please note that if you use virtual hosts (named virtual hosts in Apache HTTPD), you will have to deploy your web application to the default host or set an Alias with the value of the IP address of the machine that Tomcat is running on. I also run an Apache HTTPD server with mod_jk. This allows my to access the Tomcat application via http://ip-address/my-app. I do this all the time on both Linux and Windows. I don't have a Macintosh, but only the particulars (setup) would change. . . . just my two cents /mde/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJWe8i/AAoJEEFGbsYNeTwtvCIH/jXwrYGrR7hqdHtcFHIqGg/U X3rtVSEOBpc4kZ8MaiULZs40eJUAqF7DKX6gCjDx8DBVj7MvP/DwCA4Ptnk4Fa1m bDkRFTPUeAkrqbL6+n4JQyKah1hMhYQYqvwl4CCse6TPOjgfXC5I1fM7ZxUIPbdd VXfn+ulbN65os+7LuckuIwjB1fn1yvHbJfric+jXSKuNEBaAlajWr/Add2RRVvk7 iXkQrPgnBFIHzoEb4A+nRrNovZoin4p//uDJq2TwXVYOBQth1KG1AIqV/FFAkODZ r+W3Lq9n+WmBpDzOM0GZ9yhvNwCUzMiBKcxLZnd/OHvkJU250hO4x44sWjcDK9g= =cHp4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
