Hi,
i'm assuming ur using same machine for web client and preview.
In this case :
- no need to configure any where. default settings are pretty good enough.
- remove the lines added in host file and .properties file,check it again.

Regards,
Hans

Hi

I have changed the configuration as below,

in <Alfresco home>\virtual-tomcat\conf\alfresco-virtserver.properties,
alfresco.virtserver.domain=<hyphen-encoded IP>.ip.alfrescodemo.net

in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts,
<dot-encoded IP> <hyphen-encoded IP>.ip.alfrescodemo.net
<dot-encoded IP> <web_project_name>.www–sandbox.<hyphen-encoded IP>.ip.alfrescodemo.net
<dot-encoded IP> preview.<web_project_name>.www–sandbox.<hyphen-encoded IP>.ip.alfrescodemo.net
<dot-encoded IP> <user_name>.<web_project_name>.www–sandbox.<hyphen-encoded IP>.ip.alfrescodemo.net
<dot-encoded IP> preview.<user_name>.<web_project_name>.www–sandbox.<hyphen-encoded IP>.ip.alfrescodemo.net
(entry for all the users involved in that webproject)

Also i added *.alfrescodemo.net in Don't use proxy list in the browser settings

I am able to create and preview the site as given in Evaluation Guide.
It s working fine.

But is adding multiple entries to hosts file acceptable?
