Eclipse Tomcat default url

Question

I run my web application using eclipse with tomcat I receive this problem (in internal browser of eclipse - internet explorer): http://localhost:8080/MyApp/ This program cannot display the webpage.... Because I am after the proxy. but when I manually put http://127.0.0.1:8080/MyApp/ - it works. Is possible to adjust settings of Eclipse to launch url like: 127.0.0.1:8080 instead of localhost? Thanks.

Answer 1

Open the "Servers View", double click your tomcat server, the local configuration will appear.Change the hostname to "127.0.0.1" and then save.

Answer 2

There is another way to solve your problem. Eclipse built-in browser can use the native proxy settings. Add to the exception list the localhost string. Moreover maybe you should make changes in the network connections settings panel in Eclipse: from Direct to Native.
