Andy, I think your guess is right, to be sure I asked support the same question. Here is their answer:
There is a Control Panel installer for 'mod_wsgi 2.5/Python 2.5' - it automatically creates a cron job that would start the server, if it is not running. I guess 'the server' refers to web2py? What exactly is a cron job in this case? Kind regards, Annet. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
