Http://localhost does not resolve like other browsers

Probably related to handling http

Probably related issue. I have noticed that while sending same request on localhost as on production app Cookie header is not passed, which results unexpected behaviour like unable to login to an web app.

Production:

Localhost:

Still having this issue... any fixes?

I am a developer and i need to do localhost testing at times

On MSedge on my macOS ventura

This works as expected.

On Orion

this doesn't work

but when i change to 0.0.0.0:8000 it works again

Please fix this

I suspect it's probably due to this bug

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160504

I have tested on safari and the same behavior occurs, so it's more of a webkit thing.

I prefer if orion makes a decision to be more like the chromium browsers in this case. Developers like me would love orion more.

Using the most recent 3-5 comments on https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160504

what i did was

sudo vim /etc/hosts

hardcode

127.0.0.1   enp.localhost # because /etc/hosts does not support wildcard

my belief is that orion should use builtincode for *.localhost to auto use 127.0.0.1 rather than use webkit's default, like the chromium browsers

simkimsia Thanks for checking. Please leave a comment on webkit.org as we are not in position to fix webkit bugs now

I'm probably talking out of my behind, forgive me.

But, thinking out loud...

Is it possible for orion team to simply bolt this feature on top of webkit?

Vlad bolting stuff on top of WebKit is immensely time consuming (and this is a very niche request on top of that). This is why we prefer they fix it

I can imagine.

Thank you for making it clear here. I trust the team to triage in the best possible way.
