I have a Rails app running on my Mac, and I’m using VMWare Fusion

  • 0

I have a Rails app running on my Mac, and I’m using VMWare Fusion with Windows XP installed.

My Rails app uses subdomains, and I usually access it on my mac using http://<subdomain>.lvh.me:3000

-or-

I also have a pow server, and can access my Rails app on my mac using: http://<subdomain>.<mydomainname>.dev


But I can’t access the app in VMWare using subdomains. I can’t use lvh.me:3000 or my pow domains.

Does anyone know how to make this work?

    You should be running your virtual machine using the bridged network mode. This will put the machine on the same network as the host OS.

    If that doesn’t work, I would use your VM’s hosts file to add manual entries for to your host machine.
