If you are using windows system:

please check the file

C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

and add line such as:

127.0.0.1 localhost

Answer 5

Finally I found the solution ... It's very easy

1. Go to the LAN settings (In Chrome : Tools -> Options -> Under the hood -> Change Proxy setting -> LAN Setting)

2. There will be a checkbox for "Bypass proxy server for local address"

3. Tick the checkbox.

Done!

On Mac/Apple: Chrome uses system preferences for localhost exclusion:

1. Go to System Preferences -> Network -> advanced -> Proxy settings

2. Add 'localhost' at the bottom where it says: 'ignore proxy settings for these hosts and domains' (Exceptions are separated by a comma)
