SimpleHTTPServer issue, connects and hangs indefinitely

Never seen anything like this. I have a SimpleHTTPServer on port 8080, I go to curl it and nothing. It connects, we see curl trying to download a file but nothing gets sent.

Imgur

Have you only tried curl on it? Can you you open anything in the browser?
Have you tried another port?

  1. Yes i tried curl, that’s what the attached image shows
  2. No, it won’t open in my browser
  3. Yes, tried ports 80, 8080, then started making things up like 1122, 8888, 1111, 1234, 4321, etc.

Also, if that is clear try starting apache2 and see if you can use that.

Already tried that, same issue

lol that’s strange af.

I’d try apache2… if that fails maybe try another service like ftp/ssh see if it branches out might be something else.

I just ran a test on my parrot VM and it’s all kosher here so you got something bonkers going on for sure.
