Added
-WOHost localhost
to the Project setting as specified as a workaround for bug  WOL-756, which 
doesn't allow the adding of a parameter from the global Eclipse preferences.
 
by doing that the URL changed to
        http://localhost/cgi-bin/WebObjects/tyf.woa/-5555
and the problem became 

*** No Instance Available ***

BTW: This is the way MacOSX in System Preferences defines the IP address.
*************************
From Personal Web Sharing, (this is what turns on Apache on client MacOSX)

http://173-160-202-171-washington.hfc.comcastbusiness.net/

because that address is the default DNS for the computer? That's how Comcast 
stated the situation to me.

If no WOHost project setting specified, or if I change to 
<-WOHost=173.160.202.171> in the project setting I get the full qualified DNS 
name and Safari can't find the Comcast server, if I use <localhost> then I get 
<No instance available>, I think that <localhost> is the way to go for the 
<WOHost> parameter.
Would be nice to globally set that in Eclipse/WOLips.

*************************

So the problem now is, "wotaskd <--> myApplication", or maybe it should stated 
that wotaskd needs to run on localhost==127.0.0.1?

Thanks for the teachings,
Baiss
