(Answer) (Category) FAQ-O-Matic : (Category) JBuilder 4 General :
I'm trying to use Tomcat from within JBuilder but I'm getting this error message: Context log: path="" Socket Exception
This operation tries to use your machine's TCP/IP drivers to connect to your application. If your machine has no TCP/IP stack loaded or configured, load and configure it. You do not need to be on a network, you just has to have the drivers loaded.

Also make sure that your machine can 'ping localhost' and 'ping 127.0.0.1' properly. If not, you probably need to create a hosts file containing the line:

  127.0.0.1  localhost.localdomain  localhost

This is primarily a problem on Windows machines, especially the lack of a localhost definition and/or a hosts file.

On NT4, this file is located here:

  /mnt/doscb/winnt/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
