urls beside /help hang when using curl with a local host instance

[tyler-dunkel]

Hi,
I am spinning up a local webpagetest server using webpagetest listen 8080 --server and then I can access localhost:8080 to see the docs of what endpoints i can hit. Certain endpoints like /help work just fine but when I do a url such as /test/google.com the application hangs and it appears like the sever never sends a response. Any help would be much appreciated. Error is below.

command run: curl http://localhost:8080/player --verbose
console output:

• Hostname was NOT found in DNS cache
• Trying ::1...
• Connected to localhost (::1) port 8080 (#0)

  GET /player HTTP/1.1
  User-Agent: curl/7.37.1
  Host: localhost:8080
  Accept: /

as soon as it gets to accept, it just hangs with what appears to be a problem where the server does not respond.
