I don't quite know what exactly the problem is. Did you install Hunchentoot with quicklisp (http://www.quicklisp.org/)? 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?

Hi everyone,
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 this tutorial, which had me install all sorts of weird gigamonkey stuff) and now when I run the command
(hunchentoot:start (make-instance 'hunchentoot:easy-acceptor :port 8080))
it says
#<HUNCHENTOOT:EASY-ACCEPTOR (host *, port 8080)>
and going to <remotehost>:8080/ doesn't display anything.
I hit cntr-z to put it in the background and then

$ lsof -i :8080 and I get

COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
sbcl 11350 root 5u IPv4 1816786 0t0 TCP *:http-alt (LISTEN)

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.

Thanks!
Jeff
