Hi,
I'm running a fcl-web based embedded FPC HTTP web server inside a GUI
application (HTTP port 9000). I then try and access that web server via
http://127.0.0.1:9000/mmaths/login.cgi but under Windows Vista
and Windows 7, the web browser simply says "Website found. Waiting for
reply..." in the IE status bar. It just sits there looking like it is loading, but
nothing ever happens and after about a minute there
is not even a timeout error.
This same application works perfectly on Windows 2000 and Windows XP (SP3
installed). All applications and OSes are 32-bit.
When the application startup up for the first time under Windows 7, the Windows Firewall
asked if I want to grant access - I have it "internal network only" access.
Completely disabling the Windows 7 Firewall
made no difference.
Any ideas why this is happening?
Damn windows Firewall :(
Does the request arrive at all in the webserver app ? i.e. does the Accept()
call return ?
Michael.
