I'm connecting with latest SLIME CVS (as of tonight) to SBCL 1.0.17 (Fedora 8). I'm trying to use Drakma to snarf the home page of LispForum with (drakma:http-request "http://www.lispforum.com/")
Oddly, when I do so, I get: "Lisp connection closed unexpectedly: connection broken by remote peer"
This doesn't happen when I try other web pages, however. With others, I get the text of the web page back as a string. Oddly, it does *not* happen when connecting to the same page when running SBCL in a term window as opposed to SLIME.
Any suggestions for where to start looking? My gut says that there is a particular character or something like that in the page that SWANK can't return over the channel to SLIME/Emacs. I'm not sure how to debug it, though, since SWANK kills the connection with extreme prejudice. Does SWANK create any sort of log file anywhere, or can I enable it to do so?
Thanks,
