Unable to open forms in EBS 11i on vmware player.

Question

Hi
I have installed an EBS 11i (11.5.10) on my laptop (OS: Windows XP SP2) on vmware using vmware player running Linux (OS: RHEL 4 Update 5).
The installation of EBS 11i was successful.
But after that once I start the services, everything starts fine, but I am not able to launch the forms from Linux.
Can someone explain what could be the possible reason why I cannot open the forms.??
Thanks
Dev

Hi Dev;
Can you let me know where I can find the type of ethernet used for my configuration.type ifconfig as root
I am able to access the EBS 11i application using http://localhost.localdomain:8000
The /etc/hosts file in my linux server has the below entry
[oracle@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhostNormaly during installation you need to use new IP for your installation,your /etc/hosts entery should be like
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
10.x.x.x test.xx.com test (where test is localhost,xx.com is localdomain)
I am able to ping the IP (127.0.0.1)
Pinging 127.0.0.1 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128please try to add below entery to your C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain
Then try to login your ebs from your client http://localhost.localdomain:8000
PS: I am not sure it will work, just try and see whathappen, as i mention normaly i always use new IP for installation. This is also mention in installation guide too
