Controlling Starman
Useful Starman commands.
Using the perl based Starman webserver is the easiest way to run LedgerSMB locally (and quite possibly for production use as well).
## At the terminal, and from your LedgerSMB directory:
### Start Starman
starman tools/starman.psgi
Default port is 5000.
starman -l :8080 tools/starman.psgi
Start with 8080 specified as the port.
Note: some documentation specifies the switch
--preload-app
It has been sugggested that this may give performance advantages in a production environment but isn't recommended while developing.
The manpage has more to say on this.
