Hi,

How to run the paste server process as a daemon?

paste serve development.ini --daemon.  You can also see its other options by typing paster serve development.ini --help.

I used to do like this:

paster serve development.ini --reload &

I wanted to know if there is another way

If you're using paster in production, it's usually smart to launch it via supervisor so that it can restart the app if it crashes and generally provide a better way to monitor the process. An example of doing this is in the cookbook.

http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid_cookbook/dev/deployment/nginx.html#step-4-managing-your-paster-processes-with-supervisord-optional

If you just want to launch paster in daemon mode, do what Joe said and "paster serve --daemon development.ini".

Yah, the correct way to do that is 'paster serve development.ini --reload --daemon'.  If your developing, you probably don't want to run it as a daemon, as you won't be able to see the output of the server, and if you are running it in production, you probably wouldn't want the server to reload each time the code changes(b/c realistically it shouldn't).  So I would recommend using each of those two flags separate of one another.

Yah supervisor is a better option for production.

Thanks for the replies guys. I got the point.
