Ok, I gave it a try. I ran "demo-shell -noserver" and got a pop-up window with the following msg.
The connection was refused when attempting to contact localhost:8888. Without the -noserver I get this. General Error: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "8888/com.mudd.demo" Do I need to disable the code that calls my XML/RPC server in order to run with the -noserver option?
