Fetch() contacts Host OS instead of VM
Background:
I'm working with Apache on a CentOS 6 virtual machine that serves a bundled React website. This website is accessible from my host OS via 192.168.10.10
.
Throughout the website, there are multiple fetch()
calls to a Node server that is running on the VM (located at localhost:4000
, which is equivalent to 192.168.10.10:4000
).
Problem:
The website (192.168.10.10
) is trying to performing fetch()
calls to the host OS's localhost
(aka, 192.168.10.1
- my operating system) rather than localhost:4000
on the VM (192.168.10.10
). As the IP address of the VM is dynamic, I can't easily replace localhost:4000
within fetch()
as I don't know the IP Address of the VM beforehand.
How would I go about telling fetch()
that localhost:4000
refers to the VM (192.168.10.10:4000
) and not the host OS (192.168.10.1:4000
)?
