Is localhost somehow removed from the host file?? (windows/systems32/drivers/etc/hosts)?
It should be aliased to 127.0.0.1 with: 127.0.0.1 localhost Dean -----Original Message----- From: JS [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 31, 2003 10:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: why has tomcat just crashed They all work fine, google, bbc, msn. I am connected to my network at uni at the moment, but tomcat still doesnt start at home. I just read on a Java Developer forum to try using http://127.0.0.1:8080 It worked fine??? How come it doesn't work with localhost:8080?? Thanks > > Howdy, > The error you posted seems to be network-related, not specific to > tomcat.
