I am a newcomer to weblocks. Moreover, I have been away from CL for about two years (took a detour to Haskell), and in any case never was very expert at CL. I confess that I am posting this without having done a whole lot of research. But, I am trying to start by running weblocks example apps, so I somehow don't expect to have to put in a whole lot of effort just to see preliminary demos. Somebody may flame me if I am being too lazy, I guess.
I run OS X 10.7.3, ccl, and develop using aquamacs and SLIME. This CL setup is working like a charm for me, as it always has. I just installed weblocks and weblocks-demo with quicklisp. Doing so apparently also caused other weblocks examples to be installed, such as simple-blog, weblocks-clsql-demo, and weblocks-elephant demo. Things seem to be pretty broken. I think it is premature to start posting error messages etc. I will certainly do so if that is helpful. But for now, my question is, should I expect the examples to work out of the box? I don't see any posts here that indicate they are broken at the moment. For instance quicklisp apparently delivers weblocks-clsql-demo without weblocks-clsql, so the web app cannot even be loaded by asdf. Is that a quicklisp problem, or something else? (I just joined the quicklisp group a moment ago, and have lots to learn about quicklisp also). Next, simple-blog fires up and gives me a web page, but almost anything I try to do results in a cascade of error messages. So, what should my expectations be? Should I not expect these to run out of the box? Best, - Jake - -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weblocks" group.
