   but again, I can successfully access http://localhost:8080 and blank for
http://localhost:8080/mms_test. so the log files are not very informative.

2) I have downloaded LiveHttpHeaders plugin and followed your instructions.
Believe it or not when I access http://localhost:8080/mms_test or
http://localhost:8080 or http://localhost:8080/mms_test , and when i click
on "Live http headers" form tools , the headers are empty. However when I
access any other sites , like google , the headers has info in it( as it is
expected)

Sooo I am seriously confused and frustated!!! I just dont know what to do!!

I even tried http://localhost:8080/mms_test/index.html but same problem :(

sorry again for the hassell but seriously any solution is appreciated!


thank you kindly

zia
