Ryan, Thank you for your answer. I however did not understand what you mean by "top level file".
If you want to try and reproduce the problem to tell me what I'm missing, here are the steps I'm taking: - Install the latest Orbit (I installed version 2.1.0-1 via Luarocks) - Browse to your Orbit rock's hello sample (YourPath/luarocks/rocks/orbit/2.1.0-1/samples/hello) - Run 'orbit hello.ws' or even 'orbit hello.lua' - Start your browser at http://localhost:8080/ and you get 'Hello World!' - Now edit that 'Hello World!' (line 55) in hello.lua to 'Hello!' or something else and save the file in your editor - I have even run 'touch hello.ws' and 'touch hello.lua' to no avail - Now refresh your browser and 'Hello World!' is still there - I just can't get it to reload the changed sentence If other members of the mailing list want to try these steps, I would be grateful.
