Webrick startup error

ruby-talk
1

on:

$ sudo webrick_test.rb

where webrick_test.rb reads:

#!/usr/local/bin/ruby

require 'webrick'

PORT = 8809
DOCUMENT_ROOT = Dir.pwd

s = WEBrick::HTTPServer.new :port => PORT, :DocumentRoot =>
DOCUMENT_ROOT

trap('INT') { s.shutdown }

s.start

no matter what port i use i get this:

incidentally i have no such errors when i use TCPServer

require 'socket'

port = (ARGV[0] || 8808).to_i
server = TCPServer.new('localhost', port)
while session = server.accept
  req = session.gets
  puts "Request: #{req}"
  session.print "HTTP/1.1 200/OK\r\nContent-type: text/html\r\n\r\n"
  session.print "<h1>#{req}</h1>"
  session.close
end

Yeah, but it *should* work. That needs refactoring.

No, WEBrick only uses :StudlyCaps.
