Hi, Could this have something to do with SO_REUSEADDR? This could be the case if you interrupt the server while some clients are connected to it. If so, I think the Haskell way to set this is: setSocketOption socket ReuseAddr 1 Patrick On Fri, Jun 4, 2010 at 2:59 PM, aditya siram <aditya.siram@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi all, I've been writing some server code like the following: Control.Exception.bracketOnError (listenOn port) sClose procRequests
Sometimes I run this server in GHCI and interrupt it with C-c. But when I try and rerun the server it tells me that the port is already bound meaning that sClose either doesn't get called or doesn't complete. Terminating the interpreter seems to work.
Is there a better way to correctly stop listening on a port? -deech _______________________________________________ Beginners mailing list Beginners@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/beginners
