无法从 eclipse springboot 应用程序访问 localhost:8080

I am running a simple springboot demoapplication

But while accessing the localhost:8080 from browser, I see "Site can't be reached error". What could be the issue here. Even the port is not occupied(checked via netstat). Below are the logs, displayed:-
