You told your server to go into "daemon mode" (that's what the -d did), which is why it *seemed* to exit. Technically the process you started did exit -- but it started another, which is what's still using that address (port). You can't run another copy of the server unless you either kill the current one or use a different port. Otherwise, the system wouldn't know which of the two should answer if someone tries to connect to that port. -Dave -- Dave Aronson: Available Cleared Ruby on Rails Freelancer (NoVa/DC/Remote) -- see www.DaveAronson.com, and blogs at www.Codosaur.us, www.Dare2XL.com, www.RecruitingRants.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
