Intellij IDEA Tomcat Application Server was not connected before starting a configuration stop, reason: the ping command on localhost could not be completed: 1099

Question

I am using Intellij Ultimate edition 14.0.2

Work on a Java project using Maven as a build tool.

We get this error when trying to run my project through the Tomcat server.

The application server was not connected before starting the configuration stop. Reason: Failed to execute ping command on localhost: 1099

An attempt was made, mvn clean install, to rebuild the project in intellij, open and close intellij.

Answer 1

Thanks for the feedback to everyone. I finished editing my host file to refer to my computer name. I could not recreate the problem.

Solved at the moment.

Answer 2

Your problem is rarely controversial. You should check the connection between IntelliJ IDEA and Tomcat Server. Checklist, for example, marked items:
+ Configuring Tomcat Server.
+ Before starting the application server, you must configure the addition of artifacts to the sever application.
+ Disable other Tomcat servers on your computer (localhost)
etc.
