Re: [ANNOUNCE] Abe 0.7: Open Source Block Explorer Knockoff

I made succesfully a working explorer for Trollcoin. One question remains however:

1: I have a process for loading the blockchain
2: I have a process for serving the html pages

process 1 is now handled by a cron job
process 2 is only running as long as i keep an SSH session with server open.

Anyone with some tips on how to daemonize the Abe webserver process??
I tried to find some information with google but this seems to be a hard part!

Search for "upstart" or "daemontools", or you could follow Abe's FastCGI instructions and use a regular web server.

Edit: For keeping an SSH tunnel open, I used to use daemontools, but I think upstart is more usable and standard nowadays, at least on Linux.
