Have splunk-sdk-python installed. Tests work i.e. /tests/runtest.py. Some examples work i.e. abc/a.py b.py... Am able to run /splunk-sdk/examples/analytics/server.py and Bottle server is running on http://localhost:8080. Have verified .splunkrc file. I have also verified I have events on Splunk:

2012-08-08T08:39:29.112076 application="analytics" event="list_applications in the sample_analytics index.

However, http://localhost:8080/applications show a blank webpage. Did I miss a step?

Was working on Beta Splunk 5.0 (build 125564)

Switched to Splunk 4.3.3 and it worked like a charm.

Do you see anything in the console from which you started server.py?
