Hi Sean,
I just found your wiki page. Great job! :-)
I tried out your code, but I have a problem. The service installs and
starts alright, but when I try to browse to my site, nothing shows up.
More specifically, The request is sent and then the browser is just left
there waiting. It does not even time out (at least not quickly).
Anyway, I had previously created a service based on the CherryPy recipe
and it works. So I'm just wondering why one would work and not the
other. So far, I have not been able to figure it out.
Maybe someone here can help me out? It's probably some dumb mistake on
my part. :-)
I am including the relevant bits from your code as well as my
CherryPy-based code.
Thanks in advance,
Krys
