Hi there, I have been wanting to try out to connect to a running sbcl (0.9.5 on sarge) lisp In my console, I startup slime (which I got from cvs today) and create the server: * (swank:create-server) ;; Swank started at port: 4005. 4005 This works fine. In my emacs I hit M-x slime-connect and after providing host and port, I am actually using the above started lisp. So far so good, but now the actual problem arises. Once I hit M-x slime-disconnect in Emacs I get the following error in my sbcl and cannot reconnect to the lisp: * ;; Connection to Emacs lost. ;; [end of file on #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "a constant string" {AC56161}>] debugger invoked on a SIMPLE-ERROR in thread #<THREAD "auto-flush-thread" {AD822F1}>: #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "a constant string" {AC5D1C1}> is closed. I have been searching all over the internet for a solution because this way I can not really work because I can only once connect to the lisp and not again. Can anyone give me a pointer on what I am doing wrong? I am totally stunned because I seem to be the only one that has this problem :( In any case, thank you for your help! Slime is working amazingly otherwise just this feature is really important to me. Alexis
