[Backgroundrb-devel] Error when starting Backgroundrb

[Christian Schlaefcke]

Hi Folks,

I want to set up backgroundrb on my laptop to do some tests. But when I
run "scripts/background start" I get this error:

ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/daemons-1.0.5/lib/daemons/daemonize.rb:160:in
`setsid': the setsid() function is unimplemented on this machine
(NotImplementedError)
     from
ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/daemons-1.0.5/lib/daemons/daemonize.rb:160:in
`call_as_daemon'
     from
ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/daemons-1.0.5/lib/daemons/application.rb:191:in

     from

     from

`run'
     from Test/vendor/plugins/backgroundrb-0.2.1/script/backgroundrb:31

I had the fork-not-implemented-error before so I use "require
'win32/process'" on my WinXP Notebook. This "setsid is unimplemented" is
new and even google could not tell me much about it. Anybody here who
experienced this error and could help with a workaround?

Thanks & Regards,

Christian
