title: How do I get the Tomcat manager/status to work with my local hostname?
body: <p>This works <a href="http://localhost:8080/manager/status" rel="nofollow">http://localhost:8080/manager/status</a> and this doesn't <a href="http://canalistan:8080/manager/status" rel="nofollow">http://canalistan:8080/manager/status</a>. The Tomcat home page displays OK with either localhost or canalistan (my hostname).</p>
  
  <p>I've put an entry in the hosts file. I'm using Tomcat v7, Windows 7 etc. Everything else seems to work OK and I've even managed to set up a virtual host, but this has so far eluded me.</p>
