I have a JSP program running on tomcat webserver at home. This program works. At home the computer accesses the internet via a dialup modem.
I am trying to run this program at another location. I have taken my hard disk and installed the hard disk at the other computer. The other location is networked. It is running DHCP IP addressing. When I run the program there it does not work???
Also when I run the tomcat test there i.e
http://localhost:8080
In the status bar I get
Website found. Waiting for reply ...
but after few minutes I get the error message below:
why???
Please help
From home I ran the program as
http://localhost:8080/myJSPs/jsp/portal-project/preferences.jsp
this works perfectly.
At the other location I am trying the typing the same address in the address bar of IE6:
http://localhost:8080/myJSPs/jsp/portal-project/preferences.jsp
But it gives me the message in the status bar:

"Website found. Waiting for reply ... "
but after few minutes I get the error message below:

Is it possible that this other computer is not configured to allow "localhost"?

it sounds like your app server is not running properly. assuming you are running on windows, is the drive letter the same as on your home computer? if there is more than one hard drive in the new box, or connected in a different order, the drive letter can be different which could cause multiple problems with the server running.
is the server started? the ie6 page just says that it found localhost - that's easy, because localhost is always the computer you are currently on. but then the page didn't come up, meaning that the server failed. check the log files for your app server.
