Can't connect to local host

I am testing some tvOS code and it works great on the Simulator however on the Dev Kit running OS beta 2 I am receiving the following error:

2015-09-27 11:10:29.797 RWDevCon[272:46267] SSSQLiteDatabase: Could not open database, resetting: [23, /var/mobile/Library/Cookies/com.apple.itunesstored.2.sqlitedb]

Swift Code:

class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate, TVApplicationControllerDelegate {

var window: UIWindow?

var appController: TVApplicationController? /

static let TVBaseURL = "http:/

static let TVBootURL = "\(AppDelegate.TVBaseURL)js/application.js" /

func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject : AnyObject]?) -> Bool {

window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds)

/

let appControllerContext = TVApplicationControllerContext()

/

guard let javaScriptURL = NSURL(string: AppDelegate.TVBootURL) else {

fatalError("unable to create NSURL")

}

appControllerContext.javaScriptApplicationURL = javaScriptURL

appControllerContext.launchOptions["BASEURL"] = AppDelegate.TVBaseURL

/

appController = TVApplicationController(context: appControllerContext, window: window, delegate: self)

return true

}

}

JavaScript/server code:

App.onLaunch = function(options) {

// 1

var alert = createAlert("Welcome to tvOS Programming", "It will be Awesome!"); // leaving 2nd parameter with an empty string

navigationDocument.presentModal(alert);

}

// 2

var createAlert = function(title, description) {

var alertString = `<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<document>

<alertTemplate>

<title>${title}</title>

<description>${description}</description>

<button><text>OK</text></button>

</alertTemplate>

</document>`

var parser = new DOMParser();

var alertDoc = parser.parseFromString(alertString, "application/xml");

return alertDoc

}

Starting the Server:

> python -m SimpleHTTPServer 9001

NB: Allow Arbitary Loads is set to YES
