I installed IHS and then configured the admin service, however, now when I try to access it using websphere 8.5 it fails

When I try to start

com.ibm.ws.management.webserver.ServerNotAvailableException: start No Connection

When I try to reach config

[1/10/14 17:15:24:868 EST] 0000006f SystemOut O IOException java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect

and when I access through a browser I get the following...

[Fri Jan 10 16:28:29 2014] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] client denied by server configuration: C:/apache

This is clearly wrong as i do not have a c:\apache but I cannot figure what is configured wrong.

Any ideas?

In my case the problem was something with the proxy at work. When I edited my Hosts to direct my domain requests to 127.0.0.1 instead of leaving it up to the DNS it worked!
