Hi,

I'm trying unsuccesfully to use the httplib library to execute servlets on a
local tomcat server.

If I type the following http adress on my browser
http://localhost:8080/test/Serv1 the servlet works fine.
But if I try to access it with the following python code:

conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("http://localhost:8080")
conn.request("GET", "/test/Serv1")
r1 = conn.getresponse()

I get the following error:

socket.gaierror: (11001, 'getaddrinfo failed')

Do you know what I do wrong?
Thank you very much.

localhost is not resolved to 127.0.0.1 on your machine.

Try changing it to http://127.0.0.1:8080

Regards
Marco
