If orion is started on an in-use port when it crashes it fails to clean up after itself so when restarted on an open port it fails to run properly.
What browser were you using? I am definitely seeing problems on Chrome doing the following: 1) Start orion 0.3 on port 8080 2) Open Chrome and point to localhost:8080. Leave it open. 3) Stop the server 4) Start another server, such as self-hosting latest orion server 5) Back in Chrome, hit F5 to refresh. -> Chrome insists on using its cached copy not matter what kind of refreshing you do. You need to aggressively clear your chrome cache before it will load properly. I don't think this is a problem of the server not cleaning up properly ,but the combination of browser client caching and switching to a different server at the same address.
I was using firefox 3.6... I don't think it can be the browser: The problem arose thus: orion is started on a used port and then crashes in desktop space - no browser connection was attempted so no caching. a new port is chosen and then orion re-run and the browser connected to a blank page. If the bash session was closed and restarted then the orion Welcome page comes up. I've just tried to replicate but cant - I cant even get it to crash on a used port! But I do have a working orion so it may have passed some initiation point? If I get time I'll try later on a different machine
