  Start debugging in Visual Studio 2010 redirects to invalid url

  Nov 16, 2012 07:42 PM|LINK

  I'm trying to debug my application, but I can't find the correct URL to do so.

  After I click F5 (start debugging) in Visual Studio 2010 I see the following in the system tray notification window:

  ASP.NET Development Server
  http://localhost:1392/zz
  But in the Chrome browser address that is opened the URL is:

  http://www.localhost/zz/Default.aspx
  and I see a notification: Oops! Google Chrome could not find www.localhost

  If I change the address manually to

  http://localhost:1392/zz/Default.aspx
  it redirects back again to

  http://www.localhost/zz/Default.aspx again
  So I can't seem to debug my website.

  I have hostsman running with the following URL's:

  # localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
  # 127.0.0.1 localhost
  # ::1 localhost
  192.168.0.10 www.zorgbeurs.nl
  192.168.0.10 zorgbeurs.nl
