For reasons I won't go into I can't. I'm attempting to get this running native. I can work around the date thing above by using library calls rather than shelling.
I suspect that the port problem is due to a difference defaults. I don't see 'localhost' or '127.0.0.1' being explicitely stated anywhere, and maybe it needs to be.
And yes, I have a sufficiently authorised user profile. I occasionally run various http servers and I frequently create tcp & udp servers using Perl & D & Haskell etc.
This isn't a case of the port not being bound, it isn't getting that far, otherwise my firewall would be telling me that it is trying to act as a server and asking me to authorise it. This is failing in a system call due to parameter errors and is probably correctable at the source code level, but I can't find where.
I'm still decidely unimpressed with the error reporting though. I might just as well say: "Oops, summat's up!". if it isn't going to give some indication of where.
Yes. This seems to be an MzScheme/setup problem and little to do with arc.
I still think the error reporting/traceback situation is abismal, but I accept that this is probably the wrong place to get help in getting arc to run for my scenario.
