Why Puma rails server only accepts localhost:3000 rather than 127.0.0.1:3000

Question

Trying out Puma as my Rails server.

Anybody know why the Puma rails server only accepts localhost:3000 rather than 127.0.0.1:3000?

I'm going to want to test Facebook OAuth, and that will need an IP address.

Answer 1

Have you tried rails s -b 127.0.0.1 -p 3000? That's always worked for me.

Answer 2

Try env PORT=port_number rails s -b your_IP_Address And the server will start on https://your_IP_Address:port_number
