What command did you use to start it?

What you want to be doing is running the `serve` (python) executable in the
root of your web-platform-tests clone, like this:

  cd web-platform-tests && ./serve

That will do some checks and some automatic configuration and then start a
Web server that listens on port 8000 by default, and several other ports.

If that fails for you I can help you troubleshoot it.

Also I’m around on #testing on irc.w3.org if you want to try
troubleshooting in real time. Either that or if there’s some other chat/IM
system you want to use instead, lemme know and we can use that.
