Locust web interface not starting on Windows

C:\Development\Test>locust -f main.py
[2013-02-27 19:30:11,346] INFO/locust.main: Starting web monitor on port 8089
[2013-02-27 19:30:11,348] INFO/locust.main: Starting Locust 0.6.2

…And then it never gets past this point. I am using the example locust file from the website for main.py

from locust import Locust, TaskSet, task

def index(l):
    l.client.get("/")

def stats(l):
    l.client.get("/stats/requests")

class UserTasks(TaskSet):
    # one can specify tasks like this
    tasks = [index, stats]

@task
def page404(self):
    self.client.get("/does_not_exist")

class WebsiteUser(Locust):
    host = "http://127.0.0.1:8089"
    min_wait = 2000
    max_wait = 5000
    task_set = UserTasks

I am running Windows 7. Any ideas on what I could be doing wrong? Would be happy to clarify more information.

I had the same problem.

After hopeless searching, I tried navigating http://localhost:8089 and web interface appeared like miracle.

Give it a try guys.

Strange http://127.0.0.1:8089/ doesn’t work but http://localhost:8089/ does.
