I have an erlang app I run with -detached and it works fine until I exit the shell I ran it from.

I'm on xubuntu, and run

erl -name node@host -pa /my/ebin -s module -setcookie somecookie -detached

I first used startup scripts in xubuntu but I couldn't get to the node.

I then tried running emacs in daemon mode, run the app and then ctrl-x,ctrl-c to get out of emacs, but leave it running, but when I do that the app stops responding.

Anyone know why?

Thanks,

Wes

Forgot to mention this is with R15B02.

I toyed with the yaws startup script and now it works to start my app. The key might be using the run_erl instead of using detached.
