I have a server on port 8085 (my pc - I use Ubuntu 16.04). There are also Virtualbox with installed Windows 7. I have an internet connection in Windows (it is possible to open google.com etc) but there is no connection to localhost. For localhost:8085 in Ubuntu everything works perfectly but for the same adress in virtual-machine doesn't work.

I tried to modify Settings->Network and put there bridged but there is the same problem.

How is it possible to access it?

Try 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost or get ip address with terminal command ifconfig and use the address in the url

    Like A-Stefani commented, one can easily access localhost using 10.0.2.2 ip. No configuration needed – wi2ard May 04 '18 at 08:31
