Note that since this is an amazon EC2 instance you will have to have allowed access to the instance on the 8080 port. Since you said that it worked earlier on the same instance I'm just throwing this out there as a low possibility.<br>

Hi Hans thanks for your reply,<div>I do have Hunchentoot installed using quicklisp. And sorry for the ambiguity, I meant that I enter the server's address in my browser's address bar (in this case it would be <a href="http://ec2-184-72-143-0.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8080" target="_blank">ec2-184-72-143-0.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8080</a>), it then hangs for a while, and eventually shows an error page saying "Opps, Google Chrome could not connect..."<br>
<br></div><div>Some additional info:</div><div>On my local host, after entering the hunchentoot:start command, the prompt hangs until I hit CNTL-C. But on the remote host, it brings me back to the REPL. I'm still able to enter commands while sbcl runs (which I've read is characteristic of threading). I think I'll do a bit more homework and try to print request logs (if any) to a file.</div>

Did you install Hunchentoot with quicklisp (<a href="http://www.quicklisp.org/" target="_blank">http://www.quicklisp.org/</a>)? If not, please do so. Also, what do you mean when you write "going to <remotehost>:8080/ doesn't display anything"? Do you get an empty page?<br>

Hi everyone,<div><br></div><div>This is my first attempt at a webapp, and first time posting to the mailing list. I have a question about starting a server on a remote machine. I've been playing with Hunchentoot on my localhost, and it works great. Earlier it worked on my remote webspace also. But recently I've been playing with SBCL threading and Allegro (following <a href="http://www.gigamonkeys.com/book/practical-web-programming-with-allegroserve.html" target="_blank">this</a> tutorial, which had me install all sorts of weird gigamonkey stuff) and now when I run the command<br>
<pre style="padding:5px;background-color:rgb(224,224,224)">(hunchentoot:<a href="http://www.weitz.de/hunchentoot/#start" style="text-decoration:none;padding:0px" target="_blank">start</a> (make-instance 'hunchentoot:<a href="http://www.weitz.de/hunchentoot/#acceptor" style="text-decoration:none;padding:0px" target="_blank">easy-acceptor</a> :port 8080))</pre>
</div><div>it says</div><div>#<HUNCHENTOOT:EASY-ACCEPTOR (host *, port 8080)> <br>and going to <remotehost>:8080/ doesn't display anything.<br>I hit cntr-z to put it in the background and then<br><br></div>
<div>$ lsof -i :8080 and I get</div><div><br><div>COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME</div><div>sbcl 11350 root 5u IPv4 1816786 0t0 TCP *:http-alt (LISTEN)</div></div><div><br></div><div>
I have a feeling it's something simple, like incorrect host variable or a separate thread being stopped, but I'm having a hard time finding answers on Google and related documentation. Any suggestions or information on what that above message means would be greatly appreciated.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><span><font color="#888888"><div>Jeff</div>
