Do you mean that if started from the REPL, it can serve much longer than that? > I'm new to serving up pages via CL and ECL, has anyone had any luck with this? I do, but using a custom HTTPd (I don't consider it in a state that's ready for a release though :) But it's good news if Huchentoot now supports ECL, as it wasn't the case when I looked at it. > Should I embed ECL into an exe that runs hunchentoot rather than running ECL? > > Or, if I run the server as a script, is there some way to get the script to > not need to interact with the REPL (which I think is the problem)? This is only a hypothesis, but it's indeed possible that output to a necessary stream is not redirected to a null device, and that there's an eventual error because of this... If you're under a unix-like environment, it's rather common to launch processes that need a terminal into a detachable tmux or screen session. Another common method with CL daemons is for the server to load and start SWANK (the server-side of SLIME), such that you could connect to the instance and disconnect at will, using SLIME in Emacs (locally or remotely). -- Matt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
