I have a dev server on port 8080 on my mac, and I'm trying to access it from a clean installation of Windows 7 in parallels.
Ipconfig says my VM's IP address is 10.211.55.3. I can access the mac web sharing service at 10.211.55.2:80/ but not my own webserver (GAE) at 10.211.55.2:8080/
- Parallels set to Shared Networking and is able to browse the internet fine
- Firewall is off in both windows and mac
- I installed bonjour for windows as a few forums said to do. I can then use my-computer-name.local/ but same deal as before, port 8080 doesn't work
- Tried adding a port forwarding entry of 8080,TCP,10.211.55.3,8080 to Parallels Desktop > Preferences > Advanced > Port forwarding rules
Answer
Can you access your testing server on :8080 from other real machines on your network? It could be that your development server software accepts only connections from your local machine (127.0.0.1 aka localhost).
