Jenkins server is not accessible by host name (ip address)

Question

I setup jenkins on my Mac OS X with homebrew and it works just fine via http://localhost:8080 or http://127.0.0.1:8080 I couldn\'t access jenkins i

Answer 1

It turned out that launch agent was configured to listen only 127.0.0.1 (or localhost). To fixed that edit jenkins agent's plist:

nano /Users/admin/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.jenkins.plist

and modify httpListenAddress to 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1

  
    Label
    homebrew.mxcl.jenkins
    ProgramArguments
    
      /usr/bin/java
      -Dmail.smtp.starttls.enable=true
      -jar
      /usr/local/opt/jenkins/libexec/jenkins.war
      --httpListenAddress=0.0.0.0
      --httpPort=8080
