MServer not working?

Monkey Targets Forums/HTML5/MServer not working?

Hi,

After a long time without using Monkey, I downloaded the latest version (82b) and started using it again. But for some reason, now when I try to run an html5 program, Mserver will start and just sit there, not actually launching the browser with the program.

I'm on OS X Yosemite, my default browser is Chrome. Double clicking the html5 manually works (but some files won't load, like .xml files, and I imagine that's because I don't have the server running).

Alternatively, is there a way to manually type the address in chrome while Mserver is running (something like "http://localhost:50607"). I tried a few different ways but none worked.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I've managed to get it working by going into the build folder in terminal and entering this:
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000

Then just pointing to localhost:8000 in Chrome, but I'd still like to know what could be causing Mserver to not work properly.
Thanks!
