Set up Python simpleHTTPserver on Windows [duplicate]

Question

I want to set up Python SimpleHTTPServer on Windows XP. I have Python installed on my computer. I am executing the following command:

python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8888 

But I am getting the error:

C:\Python33\python.exe: No module named SimpleHTTPServer 

Is SimpleHTTPServer for Python available on Windows? If yes, what do I do to set up the server?

Answer 1

From Stack Overflow question What is the Python 3 equivalent of "python -m SimpleHTTPServer":

The following works for me:

python -m http.server [<portNo>] 

Because I am using Python 3 the module SimpleHTTPServer has been replaced by http.server, at least in Windows.
