Hi, I am using Xemacs 21.4.13 and slime-1.0 with clisp 2.33.1 on window XP. When I try to start slime it says swank started at port 1071 but it doesn't connects to the clisp. And on doing debug on error I get the message below. Earlier everything use to work fine, but yesterday I was playing with my Xemacs setting and I landed up in this trouble.
Is it some slime problem or clisp or xemacs problem? What is the solution for it?
Thanks.

It looks like the timer package wasn't loaded. It's autoloaded in Emacs but apparently not in Emacs. What happens if you do `M-x load-library RET timer' before starting SLIME?

SLIME starts and works fine, but why do I have this problem all of a sudden? Earlier I had never loaded the timer library.
I did install and update the packages on my machine, can that be the reason for it?
Thanks

Maybe you installed a new version of the timer package with fewer autoloads. Or maybe the new package is splitted in two files so that cancel-timer is no longer loaded when creating a timer.
Of course, it could also be a bug in SLIME that was uncovered by the updated packages. But I wasn't able to reproduce your problem and only added an explicit (require 'timer) so that you don't have to load the timer package manually.
