Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

When I run somemojoapp daemon it shows
[Sun Feb 12 19:01:33 2012] [info] Server listening (http://*:3000) Server available at http://127.0.0.1:3000.

How do i specify localhost:80 as commandline option? or through some config file?

netstat -bn shows

TCP 0.0.0.0:3000 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 1 +876 [perl.exe]
which I understand is local network only (accessible through private network ip), but I only want localhost

How to get localhost only?

Thanks

      Thank you.

      Apparently  appname -help daemon will print that stuff out

      and appname -l http://localhost:80/ will work start listening on localhost only

        I am new to Mojolicious (and also Plack), and I like what I see. I am currently running my Apps on a Virtual Dedicated host with Apache 2.2 and mod_fastcgi. But my web framework is "homegrown", and I really need the middleware that these offer.

        My problem is using the server that is provided (Mojo's or plackup). They call them daemons, but they do not run in detached bg as Apache (httpd) does, but instead tie up a terminal.

        What am I missing? I can't believe such beautiful software would be run that way in production.

        Thanks, Ray

    I'm not familiar with Mojolicious, but binding to a "well-known", or privileged (<=1023) port requires root access. You can do it, but it brings up a raft of other (read 'security') considerations.
