Question

I am quite new to bottlepy, started with hello world but cant get it working.

this is the code.

from bottle import route, run

@route('/hello')
def hello():
    return "Hello World!"

run(host='localhost', port=8080, debug=True)

and I am pointing my browser to http://hostname:8080/ or http://ipaddress:8080/

but i always get error saying could not connect.

any ideas?

thanks

Please add

@route('/')

before @route('/hello'), then you can visit http://localhost:8080.

If it still does not work, I think you need to try to put bottle.py lib file into your project root dir either.
