Rocket error?

'ERROR:Rocket.Errors.Port80:Socket 127.0.0.1:80 in use by other process and it won't share.
WARNING:Rocket.Errors.Port80:Listener started when not ready. '

When trying to start web2py?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Iconfly,

You are going about it in slightly the wrong way. Rather than trying to start a web server that is listening on port 80 you want to create a wsgi app that is then served. Look at the instructions here:

And also check out the Web tab in our dashboard.
