Unable to access jetty server with local IP address - eclipse

I have configured jetty-maven-plugin in my eclipse Mars and I can run the server using jetty start and stop goals. I can able to access the website using http://localhost:8080/myapp but not using local IP address(i.e., http://192.168.0.5:8080/myapp) from my own computer or other computers connected in the same network via LAN and Wi-Fi.
As mentioned as a solution in these posts,
how to make jetty server accessible from LAN?
Configuring Jetty to accept connections from all hosts
I configured the server host to 0.0.0.0 from localhost to listen on all hosts. With this setting I can see on server start log,
INFO:oejs.AbstractConnector:Started SelectChannelConnector#0.0.0.0:8080
and it works only on http://localhost:8080 but it's not accessible from http://192.168.0.5:8080.
I also tried running that if the interface is accessible using the Networks Interface Listing as mentioned in this comment. and I got,
Display name: NETGEAR WNA1000M N150 Wireless USB Micro Adapter
Name: wlan4
InetAddress: /192.168.0.5
I also tried turning off my Windows Firewall/antivirus but din't help. My jetty version is <jetty.version>9.3.0.M1</jetty.version> and JDK 1.7. What could be the problem? Any help is appreciated.

McAfee Endpoint Security was the culprit here. It was blocking the requests with IP addresses from my very own computer. Turned off the firewall inside the Antivirus and I was able to access the site with http://192.168.0.5:8080/mysite from the browser and other devices connected through the network.

Sometimes some other program opens your port on external address before you do that with Jetty. It will receive all traffic instead. On Windows you will not know it if you reuse port (that is Jetty's default behavior). Check with netstat -ano what is the IP of the process that is indeed listening on 0.0.0.0:8080. Verify if it is your Jetty process only.
Then try connecting with telnet or netcat and see if you can open the connection and what is the response.

Xdebug cannot connect to remote DBGp Proxy

I am running Xdebug extension on PHP webserver (IIS), and VSCode on different development machine.
When I start listening for Xdebug session in VSCode (with Felix Becker's PHP Debug) without proxy, everything works as expected.
Now I am trying to use dbgpProxy because there are multiple devs on the development machine.
I have tried to run dbgpProxy on the webserver and register to it by activating proxy settings in VSCode, but it fails with Connection refused. At the same time, Xdebug connects to the proxy just fine and proxy tries to forward incoming session based on IDE key but of course cannot find it because the registration failed.
So I tried running dbgpProxy on the development machine. This time VSCode registered successfully with the proxy, but when Xdebug tried to connect to the listening proxy, it failed.
I was pretty sure I knew what I was doing, ports were open, everything SHOULD work but it didn't.
It turned out to be a problem in the IP addresses.
I ran the proxy with default settings, which is localhost (127.0.0.1) for both server and client part with respective ports 9000 and 9001. Which was wrong (for my situation).
To listen to the incoming connections from another machine, proxy has to be configured with real IP address of the machine it is running on, otherwise it won't listen.
In my case I have decided to run the proxy on the server, so I run it with just one parameter for the incoming client connections and leave the server parameter default (which is 127.0.0.1:9000 and of course configure XDebug in php.ini to this address and port).
dbgpProxy.exe -i 10.123.54.76:9001

not able to open port in googlecloud

i am configuring voip server on centos 7 (google cloude) but some ports are blocked .
I disabled Firewall in centos
I added firewall rule to google networking.1
plz help m new to it.
You are doing it properly. Also, you can enable your Firewall in centos and just open the required ports.
To make sure that these ports are in fact open now and available to you, you should try running a small sample server on that port and try to access it from outside on that same port. If you can do so, then the networking part is done. Rest should be configured on your VOIP side.

Can connect to my tomcat home page but not to my GWT server homepage

I have what I think is a security setting problem. I have an instance of tomcat running on my Win7 pc listening on 8080 and I can connect fine to it from another pc.
I then have a GWT app running listening on port 8888 but I can't connect to it. Is there a setting on Win7 that I must white list what ports I want to allow remote connections to come in on. I turned my firewall off momentarily but this made no difference.
When Dev Mode starts, by default it does not allow access to your server from a remote IP. To active this, you must specify which address the server should bind to. From https://developers.google.com/web-toolkit/doc/latest/DevGuideCompilingAndDebugging#What_options_can_be_passed_to_development_mode this is usually done by adding the following to your arguments, sometime before the modules
-bindAddress 0.0.0.0
This will bind the server to all IP addresses available to the JVM.

How to access JBOSS Restful web service using IP and Port

I created a test JBOSS web service and there is only one test method in it. I access this using http://localhost:8070/MyWebService/MyRESTApplication
and it shows the result from the web service. I tried this in both Eclipse and Browser and it works.
But when i want to access this web service using IP address of my system then it shows ERROR message that Page cannot be displayed (in fact browser is not able to find this web service).
I want to access like this http://IPaddress:8070/MyWebService/MyRESTApplication
what should i do so that i can access it using my IP from some computer
You have to start JBoss using :
./run.sh -b [your_IPaddress]
On windows:
start run.bat -b 0.0.0.0
This will tell it to start and bind to all network interfaces. You can also replace 0.0.0.0 with your actual IP if you only want it to bind to that network interface.
I find it easier for debugging to have it come up on all network interfaces because this will work when you are running a virtual machine to debug something like Internet Explorer.
Open your server setting in Eclipse and set Host name as your IP address or 0.0.0.0

Connect an Android Device To a Web Service on Local Host

I implemented a web service for an Android application. The web service is running on my local host (192.168.1.2). Using the Android emulator I succeeded to connect to web service. The I tried to connect my Android device using debugging mode to web service but it didn't work. So my question is if it is possible to connect an Android device to this web service that is running on my local host (192.168.1.2) without using a real IP ?
It's much simpler way supported by google!
Connect your phone via usb to computer and enable usb debugging
On your computer open Chrome browser and type exactly this address: chrome://inspect/#devices
Now you can link your computer port to your device port by port forwarding button. On my computer I have service on address localhost:61437 and I just linked it to device's 8081 port. Remeber to check 'Enable port forwarding' checkbox
screen from service on my computer ( localhost:61437 )
screen from my mobile browser with the same service ( localhost:8081). And that's it. Also you use this service address in your application
Did you already solve your problem? I also got a problem like you. These are the steps that I already done:
unplug lan cable or turn off any other internet connection from your pc.
connect your android mobile to your pc using usb.
turn on usb tethering
back to your pc. check your ip. mine is 192.168.42.37
check your webservice app in your pc. let's say http://192.168.42.37/webserviceapp
back to your android mobile. try this url http://192.168.42.37/webserviceapp
Now you can access your webservice app in your pc from your mobile phone.
Well your localhost is 127.0.0.1 (or ::1) and your LAN IP is 192.168.1.2. Each pc/device that are connected under your LAN could reach your webservice on IP 192.168.1.2
Your Android device must be so connected under the same LAN maybe through Wifi connection so it will be able to talk with 192.168.1.2.
If you can't connect your Android device under the same LAN eg you have just a 3g connection you need to play with your router/firewall to redirect all incoming traffic (maybe just the http traffic) from your public ip to you private ip (192.168.1.2)
Hope this help
I'll throw in my process, since nothing on SO worked for me. Here are the steps I took to connect my physical android device to the web service running on my laptop (connected to the phone) on localhost:
Enable USB debugging on your Android device
Run your web service on your machine. My web service runs on localhost, port 3000 in development: http://localhost:3000/api/...
Run ifconfig (Unix), or ipconfig (Windows)
Find your machine's inet address on your LAN interface. Mine is 10.0.0.121 for interface wlan0. Externally, it is 68.43.XX.XXX, which is not the address that you want to use.
Use the LAN IP since you are connecting to your service on LAN, otherwise you might get an econnrefused (connection refused) error due to firewall rules
Build your http URL with that IP address, and the port that your web service is running on. For me, it's http://10.0.0.121:3000/api/...
When you launch your app, you should connections to your local web service in logs, Wireshark, etc, and you should see the desired activity/data in your Android application.
I had the same issues, researched a lot then found out that you have to explicitly make changes in your firewall settings. Your firewall is blocking your code to be accessed from external source. So, all you need to do is, go to firewall settings, add port 80 (in my case since, I am using Apache http Server) for inbound and outbound. Now, you can test it on your phone's browser http://192.16..**:80/
I've done that on a Mac using GasMask and Charles Proxy Server. Your phone and your computer have to be on the same network.
say the webservice url you want to access is at http://api.xyz.com, you first use GasMask to point that url to your localhost, then use Charles to set up a proxy server. Then you go to the settings on your phone, go into Wi-Fi, long-press the network you are connected to, choose Modify Network, and enter the proxy settings Charles gave you.
In my case, nothing of these solutions works because Windows firewall blocks it, but putting a rule on the firewall hasn't effect.
The problem in my case is that my laptop is connected with Wifi and Windows had the Wifi connection like a Public network. I must to change the network connection to Private network. http://www.comofuncionatodo.net/tecnologia/informatica/como-cambiar-de-red-publica-a-red-privada-en-windows-10/
I agree with the other answers as good approaches if you don't want to expose your DEV webservice on the internet. However, it's much easier if you do just expose the webservice. There's a number of free DNS services, but I've found no-ip to be the easiest to set up. I use it for exactly the purpose that you asked about; so I can test with my DEV webservice on a real device.
If you choose to go with no-ip (I have no affiliation with that company, it's just the one I've used and am familiar with), you can get a free publicly accessible URL like http://MyExampleWebServer.no-ip-org, and no-ip has a utility you can install so even if you're behind a dynamic IP, it will always keep the correct external IP associated with that URL. If you're working from your house, then you'd just need to make sure you port forward traffic from port 80 to your internal 192.x.x.x IP address (or whatever port you use; maybe 443 for ssl).
It's as easy as that, and now you can hit that webservice from any device that can access the internet.
I haven't worked with it, but I believe dyndns also offers a similar service.
This solution is for GAE development server in Eclipse
Step 1: Get the LAN IP
Goto your Windows Command Console (Press Win+R, then type "cmd"). In the console, enter "ipconfig". You will see a list of display. Under Wireless LAN adapter Wi-Fi, get the IPv4 Address. It will be something 192.168.x.x
LAN IP : 192.168.x.x
Step 2:
Go to Eclipse, Open the Configured server
Under Properties of GAE Development Server -> Local Interface address to bind to, enter the LAN IP address, and save.
Step 3:
Now you can access the GAE server by
http://192.168.x.x:8888/
8888 - Refers to the Port Number, as mentioned in the GAE development server
In order to access local web services using their own server hosts rather than IP addresses with ports, do these following steps:
Make sure your Android device and your local machine are on the same network.
Install SquidMan on your Mac, Linux, or any other Proxy Server.
Configure the proxy server's HTTPPort (ex. 5555) and clients (ex. 192.168.0.0/24) to your own network mask, and run the proxy server.
You are either using the web services in:
a. A web browser: Configure the proxy settings of your Android device from Modify WiFi networks.
b. Android application:
Set up the Proxy for your HTTP client. If you are using Volley, check this out: Volley Behind a Proxy server.
You can now connect to it by using whatever URL you are using on your host to connect to the web service (ex. http://my-local-machine.com)
Hint: If you got 4xx response codes, make sure your web service allows connections from other non-local-hosts.
If you are referring your localhost on your system from the Android emulator then you have to use
http://10.0.2.2:8080/
Because Android emulator runs inside a Virtual Machine(QEMU) therefore here 127.0.0.1 or localhost will be emulator's own loopback address.
