localhost:8080 redirects to localhost.ie:8080

843833Sep 20 2004 — edited Sep 20 2004
Hi All,

I am interested in learning more about webservices and have just install Sun Java System Application Server 8.

After starting the server, I needed to see if the server and installation went ok. This is done by typing :
http:localhost:8080 into the browser (internet explorer 6)

HOWEVER when I do this I get redirected to localhost.ie:8080 which yields an error as it can't find localhost.ie.

it only works if I use http:\\127.0.0.1:8080.

where is it getting the "localhost.ie" part from. I cannot seem to find the configuration file to edit it and replace localhost.ie with localhost.

can anyone help me here.

kind regards,
Will.
