Hi
I have virtualbox on MAMP Mac os x host with windows 7 guest, and it does not load http://10.0.2.2:8888
What network adapter setup do I need, and am I missing something obvious?
many thanks
Ian

There’s an error in your text:

“Turns out, the address you need to point at is http://10.0.0.2:8888.”

No, its 10.0.2.2:8888

Thanks for this! This also worked with my Django install.

Awesome tip!
Worked amazing.
I use 80 for my port Apache port so I don’t have to deal with that 8888 nonsense. And I changed 10.0.2.2 to localhost in the host file so that I can use the same naming convention on my computer and VM.

However, when I installed IETester IE5.5 through IE7 hated it.
Had to use http://10.0.2.2/directory/

Any thoughts?

Awesome. I just setup my virtual Windows 7 for testing websites against Internet Explorer using VirtualBox on OSX. I also use MAMP and this tip really helped me to run my MAMP localhost in VirtualBox and Windows 7.

Thanks!

You can setup DNS on your Mac, and get the virtual machines to use it, and BIND allows a wild-card setup, so no need to keep adding entries for every website on every virtual machine:

Fuck yeah! Thanks for the tip man. Exactly what I was looking for. I actually got everything but forgot my stupid :8888!

I tried some other searches before I found this one, so I’ll keyword jam the comment for the sake of others: This works great when using Virtualbox with OSX Mac Hosts files Windows XP.
