测试从VirtualBox在mac os x上运行的Rails应用程序

Question

I am running a Rails app on server 3000 on my Mac OS X, and am trying (and failing to) connect to it from a Windows XP IE7 VM.

I have tried the following:

NAT and using the ip address provided on the mac through ifconfig Bridged Adapter in promiscuous mode and using the ip address provided on the mac through ifconfig Host Only and using the ip address provided on the mac through ifconfig Bridged Adapter in promiscuous mode and 10.0.2.2:3000 (as outlined here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=682519 ).

None of these appear to be working...

Answer 1

I got this working by leaving the adapter setting on the VM as NAT and adding http:// in front of the 10.0.2.2:3000 address.

For a while a tried just putting 10.0.2.2:3000 in and it didn't worked.

Hope it helps someone save some time.
