Thanks for all the responses.

I'm not doing os.chdir in my code.

What happens is this:

I launch from an ssh session to my ubuntu 9.04 server machine:

sudo nohup python web2py.py -p 80 -i 192.168.1.40 -a whatever &

I hit port 80 in the browser and get /init/default/index.

I then exit the ssh session by typing exit.

I hit port 80 in the browser and get /welcome/default/index which
fails since there is no welcome application.

Any ideas what could be going on? I tried to debug this, but I'm not
sure what's happening when I exit.

Thanks,
David
