display tomcat localhost page using hosts file in windows

102 Views Asked by At

I have setup tomcat with an application deployed to ROOT location. entering localhost or 127.0.0.1 shows the application front page.

After that I modified the windows hosts file like this:

127.0.0.1 www.google.com

Now when I hit www.google.com it throws 404 error instead of the localhost page. Any idea how to route it to localhost instead?
