    <p>I have built a web service with CakePHP for my own testing purpose. </p> <p>Now I use my real Android device to connect my web service (@localhost). At first try, I managed to load my test page. Then, I turned off the Apache server and test it to make sure it is not available. After the test was done, I restarted Apache again. However, since then my Android device cannot load my page (Web page not available). I have Digest Authentication on my web service folder and at first try, it was properly executed... </p> <p>What I've done so far is:<br> 1. Connected my localhost (<a href="http://192.168.xxx.xxx" rel="nofollow">http://192.168.xxx.xxx</a>) using my real Android device (not an emulator).<br> 2. Digest Authentication pops up.<br> 3. Enter username &amp; password. Successfully connected.<br> 4. Turned off the Apache Server.<br> 5. Try to connect my localhost again (of course, "web page not available").<br> 6. Restart the Apache Server.<br> 7. Try to connect my localhost again (reload never works again...) </p> <p>At first I thought it may be cache problem or something. So I have cleared all cache &amp; any form data of my Android's web browser and tried reload again. But it never reload again. Then, I tried to connect from another PC and it successfully connected. Only from Android device fails to reload my page. </p> <p>Is there anything I can do to solve this problem? I need to use my real Android device for debugging purpose because the emulator is too slow for the job. I have searched around and found several similar questions, but none of them didn't help because in my case, I once have successfully connected to the service. Just once failed to reload the page and never load it again...</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p> <p><strong>* EDIT *</strong> I just tried the same sequence using Android emulator and it successfully reloaded... I have even tried another browser (Dolphin Browser) for my real device and still cannot load my page...</p>

    1. COAre you sure that your device can still access your machine (in the same network as your machine when your reconnect)? If yes, when your restart your apache, are you sure that it is listening on all interfaces?

    2. COThank you for reply, PCoder! Unfortunately, my device looks cannot connect to my machine but they are still on the same network. And seems Apache is ok since my another machine can connect to web service even after restarting.

    3. CO`localhost` is `127.0.0.1`, not `192.168.xxx.xxx`. Your server needs to be set up to respond to non-`localhost` addresses for `192.168.xxx.xxx` to work.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
