Friends,
I am developing one application (Pocket PC) and i am using
the (Pocket Pc Emulator) to do the tests.
I have to use/read one xml file that are on my own machine
server (localhost).
That file will be on Internet BUT i want to simulate using
my local server (localhost), avoiding connecting to web.
How can i configure the emulator to connect to my server
(localhost) ?
I have read this article:
(Using the Emulator in Smart Device Projects)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?

us/dv_vstechart/html/grfusingemulatorinsmartdeviceprojects.
asp
I have all steps but did not work... perhaps i am doing
something wrong...
I am running the emulator on the same machine (my Laptop -
acer aspire) with vs.net 2003 and perhaps my configuration
(Connections) is wrong.
I have used "configuration a connection with no proxy
Server"
- to configure PocketPC 2002 or Pocket PC 2000 with no
proxy server
The problem is that i can't view my webpages that are
stored on my machine server (localhost). Like I said I
have to use some files stored on my machine server
(localhost) on one application that i am doing with
compact Framework.
That files will be on Internet BUT i want to simulate
using my local server (localhost), avoiding connecting to
web.
My Laptop settings:
Pc name: laptop
Pc IP: 127.0.0.1
Connect Internet: Dial-up Connections (phone line)
I have made this:
++++++++++++++++++
To configure Pocket PC 2002 or Pocket PC 2000 with no
proxy server
Click Start on the emulator, click Settings, click the
Connections tab, and then click Network Adapters.
Under Adapters installed, click DC21X4 Ethernet Driver,
and then click Properties.
Click Use specific IP address, and then enter 192.168.0.2
in the IP address box, and 255.255.255.0 in Subnet mask
box.
To install the Microsoft Loopback Adapter in Microsoft
Windows 2000
In Windows Control Panel, double-click Add/Remove
Hardware, and then click Next.
Click Add/Troubleshoot a device, and then click Next.
In the Devices list, click Add a new device, and then
click Next.
Select No, I want to select the hardware from a list, and
then click Next.
In the Hardware types list, click Network adapters, and
then click Next.
In the Manufacturers list, click Microsoft.
In the Network Adapter list, click Microsoft Loopback
Adapter, and then click Next.
Click Next, and then click Finish.

I have tried without the Loopback Adapter because my
Laptop have a Network adapters (Realtek RTL8139(A)-based
PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter) BUT did not work !!
I am testing the emulator connection on my local pc like
this:
I have tried this on the emulator (Pocket IE):
http://laptop/mypage.aspx
The page you are looking for cannot be found
http://127.0.0.1/mypage.aspx
Trouble connecting
Unable to connect with current settings. To change your
connection settings, tab settings.
[ok] [settings]
I have tried many ways and ... not work!!
After some hours.
I tried to view, with the emulator, some Internet pages,
and i recived this error message:
Trouble connecting
Unable to connect with current settings. To change your
connection settings, tab settings.
[ok] [settings]
Somethink is wrong!! I went to my PDA (Toshiba e330) and
tried to connect to Internet and ... this work fine.
I went to connections of my PDA and see that he has using
one proxy ?!?! I haven't put anything there?
The proxy is "pbtproxy01" ???!!
Note: My browser (Internet Explorer) doesn't have any
proxy on there!!!
Ok, lets change the Emulator settings...
I have put that proxy on the connection settings and ... i
can see Internet pages from Pocket Pc Emulator
Great... now lets try this links (Pocket IE):
*** connecting to internet (on-line) ****
http://laptop/mypage.aspx
error:

the server
does not have a DSN entry. Perhaps there is a misspelling
in the server name,
or the server no longer exists.
Double-check the name an try again.

http://127.0.0.1/mypage.aspx
error:

or
http://localhost/mypage.aspx
error:

******************************************
Note: I have Test that pages connected to the normal
Internet Explorer and then all work fine.
When i am connection to Internet i received some different
error that point to some solutions...
When i NOT connected to Internet i received only the
message that "The page you are looking for cannot be
found". Note that I want to work off-line!
Why i did not received the same messages????
Ok, now what can i do? Any idea?
I have a bad connection (phone line) and it is not
practical ($$$$) to do all tests connection to Internet!!
Using my IP did not work, also
Here is my settings:

When i do this on my Internet explorer browser:
When i do http://laptop/mypage.aspx (laptop is my computer
name) it work fine.
When i do http://169.254.25.129/mypage.aspx (this ip is
the "ping" of my computer name). Don't work
like "laptop"...it will force to connect to Internet ...
if i do "connect" it will connect to Internet.
On my pocket pc emulator nothing work....
The first weird think is that i don't use any proxy to
connect to Internet and on my PDA (Toshiba e330) i went to
connections and see that he has using one proxy ?!?! I
haven't put anything there?
The proxy is "pbtproxy01" ???!! If i remove that from my
device i will not connect to Internet.
I only can connect to internet using the emulator if i put
that proxy... but i cant connect to my local machine
server ....
I have tried to use my machine IP and my computer name and
did not work.
Note: Sorry the long posts but i am trying to put this to
work and i can't... i give all the settings that i have on
my laptop.
Anyone knows what is wrong???
