0.0.0.0:8000 working in Firefox, but not in Chrome

Question

I'm trying to use SimpleHTTPServer to debug some ReactJS code, and when I use Firefox, I can see the page fine, but when I browse using Chrome:

http://0.0.0.0:8000

It execute a Google search for that and doesn't actually go to the address.

Any ideas of what is going on here? How can I force Chrome to go to that address instead of doing a search?

Answer 1

Is the server running on your PC? You should try http://127.0.0.1:8000 or http://localhost:8000

0.0.0.0 is not a valid IP

EDIT: I found also this answer: Is it possible to run python SimpleHTTPServer on localhost only?
