Firefox for Android: cannot locate server and the URL trying to reach includes a colon character

Trying to reach a URL like this: http://myserver123:1009/home.aspx

I've already disabled the firefox adding the "www" and ".com" to the URL which was definitely an issue originally, but it still does not resolve properly.

The error page says: 

"Server not found. Firefox cannot find the server at myserver123"

It seems Firefox is stopping at the colon character in the URL, thus not resolving to the page.

Any ideas on how to fix?

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox for Android (37.0.1) Running Android Lollipop

In about:config I have toggled and set both of these to "false"

"keyword.enabled" and "browser.fixup.alternate.enabled"

Hi LI_NY_1

On my Nexus 6, running Lollipop and FF 37.0.1 I have no problem reaching urls like:

http://rt-mba11:8080/index.html

Are you sure you have your webserver for myserver123 configured correctly?

If you could give me the URL of your webserver I can try to see if I can reproduce this problem; my guess is this is a webserver config issue and not a Firefox for Android issue but of course I could be wrong!

Cheers!
