It was just a guess, but as the OP uses bottle, here's a modified "hello world" from the bottle site <http://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/tutorial.html#quickstart-hello-world>: $ cat app.py from bottle import route, run @route('/hello') def hello(): yield "Hello " yield "World!" run(host='localhost', port=8080, debug=True) $ python3 app.py & [1] 3203 $ Bottle v0.12.7 server starting up (using WSGIRefServer())... Listening on http://localhost:8080/ Hit Ctrl-C to quit. $ python3 -c 'from urllib.request import urlopen; print(urlopen("http://localhost:8080/hello";).read())' 127.0.0.1 - - [28/Jul/2014 09:07:15] "GET /hello HTTP/1.1" 200 12 b'Hello World!' $ -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
