Thread view:

Hi every1

I am new to java EE . I have deployed my applications on Sun Java
System Application Server. I am able to access them through my
browser  using the following URL

http://localhost:8080/web_context/alias_name

If I replace local host with my IP address , still it works fine

but when I try to access the applications through a different
computer , using

http://Ip address : 8080/web_context/alias_name

page can not be displayed message is there. Is there some other info
required . Does'nt  IP address uniquely identify a client ? can any
one please help ...

Thanks in anticipation

Does your IP address begin with "192.168.1." by any chance?

When you say "different computer", are you on another computer within the same
LAN (i.e., on the same side of a firewall) or on a different subnet (i.e., on
the other side of a firewall)?

IP addresses do not uniquely or reliably identify a client.

Conversely, a client can have more than one IP address.

If there is a firewall involved, the IP address as seen from outside the
firewall is different from that seen inside.

Whether you can even reach your server from outside the firewall is a matter
of whether the firewall lets connection attempts for port 8080 reach your server.

you can try to request the url from you local computer :
http://Ip address : 8080/web_context/alias_name
If success,ping from another computer to your machine:
ping ip address.
