If you got an empty page with no errors (and no warnings trying to get ther=
e...) it is likely that your server is working, and you are trying to acces=
s it correctly, but the server is not serving anything.  Most of the time, =
if the server is not present, you will get a timeout error saying the brows=
er could not connect to server xxx. Or the site can't be reached, or someth=
ing.

I am not however much of an expert in figuring out WHY it isn't showing any=
thing  (I used a different lib for http servers), but I am sure someone els=
e on this list is.  I can only tell you that you probably at least launched=
 the server correctly.

Have you tried the example on the page in the docs? (about 3/4 of the way d=
own).
https://docs.python.org/3/library/http.server.html

If that doesn't work, it's possible you have a firewall or browser rule blo=
cking something... and it if does work, you can look back at your code to s=
ee what might be wrong.  (I suggest playing with the log_request, log_error=
, and log_message parameters to figure out what is happening.) =20

OF course, that all assumes that someone else smarter than I on this list d=
oesn't come forth and just say... "well, just do this, and poof, all  will =
be good".

Sorry it's not more.

Dan
