Please be aware that there is newer version of documentation available for Webswing. Documentation 24.2
Can't connect to application running on a different machine
Expected Behavior
Application is reachable and starts normally.
Actual Behavior
When trying to launch application, the server is not responding.
Solution
For security reasons the default setting of embedded Jetty is to listen on on localhost connections.
To modify this open jetty.properties file and change the org.webswing.server.host=localhost
to org.webswing.server.host=0.0.0.0
This will enable Webswing to listen on all network interfaces making it effectively reachable on the network.
