[slime-devel] "Error in timer" slime-attempt-connection

[Mark H. David]

I keep getting this error in SLIME/emacs/AWS EC2

Anyone familiar with this?  If I try again and again, it goes away and 
all works well until the next time or the time after that.

Here's a longer backtrace:

Debugger entered: (("Error in timer" slime-attempt-connection (#<process 
inferior-lisp> nil 2) (file-error "make client process failed" 
"connection refused" :name "SLIME Lisp" :buffer nil :host "127.0.0.1" 
:service 57918)))
   (condition-case data (apply fun args) (error (debug nil ...)))
