What bugs were encountered when attempting to run
headless? Is there any
trace output that can be shared?
As Lukas pointed out, I encounter a bug when trying to save programmatically an headless
image. It cannot be restarted.
It was with an old VW 7. Perhaps it has changed since.
Cheers,
Alexandre

Hi Michele,
I'm trying to use SmallWiki here on a server.
The way I see it, is that
even despite using VNC to keep the X session, it means that right now
on that server there is always a VNC session. So, if somebody else is
connecting with VNC to the server he will see the SmallWiki Visualworks
windows. Is that correct?
you can have as many different VNC (and X11) Sessions on the same server
as you want. You could protect your VNC Session with a password, so that
you are the only one able to access it.
The VisualWorks documentation says, that it is possible to run the VM
headless. Alexander tried to put some scripts together, but we gave up
because of some very strange bugs when running VisualWorks headless.
We are basically running all our Smalltalk server-applications in VNC
Sessions. Think of the advantages: this gives the power to update and
maintain the application without having to shut-down the server.
Cheers,
Lukas
