无法使用Easyphp通过Android设备访问localhost

Question

I'm using to host my local website on windows and It works flawlessly. Now I'm trying to launch the website from my android phone. But It doesn't seem to work by just typing :

http://pclocalip:8080 or http://pclocalip

As other web hosts like and allow it by just doing that.

Answer 1

If you are using default android emulator

The first step is to start the AVD with an increased partition size otherwise you may get an out of memory error when you try to save the modified hosts file

emulator -avd MyAVD -partition-size 128

You then have to remount the system partition so that it is writeable

adb remount

Then copy the hosts file from the emulated device to the host machine

adb pull /etc/hosts

Edit the hosts file so that it includes mappings for all relevant virtual host names

127.0.0.1 localhost

10.0.2.2 pclocalip

Then copy the updated file back to the emulated device

adb push hosts /etc/hosts

You should then be able to visit http://pclocalip in the emulator's browser and see the correct site

PS: Note that 10.0.2.2 here is the localhost IP address of your machine that run the AVD

Answer 2

There is a module especially for that : www.easyphp.org/documentation/devserver/mobile-for-devserver.php

"With the module "Mobile", you can test your code on your mobile phone / tablet and see if your website / application is mobile friendly."
