I'm going thru a tutorial, Agile Web Development with Rails (v3)...

I'm having an issue on my mac with the web server not quitting properly, mongrel / webrick process not shutting down properly in dev env. after ^C in terminal window. On subsequent attempts to restart the web server after quit.. ruby script/server webrick

I also notice that when I update a file in the app folder I have to restart the app on another port.

I get an error...

=> Booting WEBrick... => Rails 2.1.1 application started on http://0.0.0.0:3000 => Ctrl-C to shutdown server; call with --help for options [2008-11-29 13:53:39] INFO WEBrick 1.3.1 [2008-11-29 13:53:39] INFO ruby 1.8.6 (2008-03-03) [powerpc- darwin9.2.2] [2008-11-29 13:53:39] WARN TCPServer Error: Address already in use - bind(2) /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mongrel-1.1.5/lib/mongrel/tcphack.rb: 12:in `initialize_without_backlog': Address already in use - bind(2) (Errno::EADDRINUSE) ...

Thanks for any thoughts on fixing this issue :slight_smile:

Best regards,

FYI - I found a way to stop the process...

http://railstips.org/2007/2/12/oops-i-did-it-again

comand line... (shows your process) ps aux | grep script/server sudo kill -9 XXXX (kill your process X is the PID)
