Can't Connect To Local Host on bootRun

I've setup everything in my build.gradle file as well as created a package and AppConfig.java class. However, after I "bootRun" when I try to connect to localhost:8080 I get "The site can't be reached" instead of the screen the instructor got. I'm pretty sure I've got everything coded in right, but to be sure here's my class:

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication; import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;

/**

  • Created by justin on 12/1/16. */ @EnableAutoConfiguration public class AppConfig { public static void main(String[] args){ SpringApplication.run(AppConfig.class, args); } }

Could it be that my computer is running on another port?
