.NET HttpListener Prefix issue with anything other than localhost
- by jchristner
I'm trying to use C# and HttpListener with a prefix of anything other than localhost and it fails (i.e. if I give it "server1", i.e.
http://localhost:1234 works, but
http://server1:1234 fails
The code is...
HttpListener listener = new HttpListener();
String prefix = @"http://server1:1234";
listener.Prefixes.Add(prefix);
listener.Start();
The failure occurs on listener.Start() with an exception of "Access is denied.".
