windows python http.server can not be reached

I am used to run python3 -m http.server from GNU/Linux systems to serve files locally.



I had to do this on windows, and although python replies:



Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8000 (http://0.0.0.0:8000/) ...


I can not reach the server.




Browsers give this:



| address                 | Firefox response | Chrome response         |
| ---------------------- | --------------- | -------------- |
| http://localhost:8000/ | nothing | ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE |
| http://0.0.0.0:8000/ | nothing | ERR_ADDRESS_INVALID |
| http://127.0.0.1/ | nothing | ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED |


I tried to deactivate the firewall and to add rules allowing TCP connections to this port (not 80, as shown above), but did not succeed. I am not a windows user, so I might have missed something evident...




Other questions (1, 2) seem to say that it is easy.
