It certainly isn't in emacs-cvs and I doubt it exists in stable emacs either (it's not in my debian 21.4.1 version anyway). The following elisp in my .emacs fixed it for me: (unless (fboundp 'open-network-stream-server) (defun open-network-stream-server (proc buff port sentl filtr) "Compatibility function for httpd.el on newer emacsen" (make-network-process :server t :name proc :buffer buff :host "localhost" :service port :sentinel sentl :filter filtr))) mkennedy@gentoo.org 2006-04-26 11:00:50 0000 Arch testers for amd64 ppc sparc and x86, please confirm the app-emacs/httpd-1.0-r1 ebuild builds so that this bug can be resolved. Many thanks for the arch testing work :) david.morgan@gmail.com 2006-04-26 16:53:28 0000 It builds, and (load "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/httpd/httpd.el) runs fine, but when I do (httpd-start) I get Symbol's function definition is void: make-network-process Am I doing something stupid, or is something broken? (I'm not overly familar with elisp) paul@wolfbone.ath.cx 2006-04-26 19:09:30 0000 It turns out that neither open-network-stream-server nor make-network-process appear in my Debian emacs 21.4.1. If this is also true of the Gentoo emacs 21.4, then I don't think anything can be done to make httpd.el work. Michael Olson has made a more careful and better modification to httpd.el than I did in my .emacs file in his muse distribution: http://www.mwolson.org/projects/EmacsMuse.html so I'm using that now (but it still wouldn't work on emacs 21.4, of course). It's in the contrib directory. mkennedy@gentoo.org 2006-04-26 23:22:50 0000 I commited a new ebuild for httpd-1.1.ebuild. it uses the httpd.el from Muse. In the source, it says it works for emacs-21 and emacs-22 (cvs). It works on my emacs-22 (cvs), but as you discovered, not in emacs-21. (setq httpd-process (if (fboundp 'make-network-process) (make-network-process :name "httpd" :buffer (generate-new-buffer "httpd") :host 'local :service port :server t :noquery t :filter 'httpd-serve) (and (fboundp 'open-network-stream-server) (open-network-stream-server "httpd" (generate-new-buffer "httpd") port nil 'httpd-serve)))) make-network-process is the emacs-22 call, and open-network-stream-server is a mystery. Its not in emacs-22 or emacs-21.4.1. mkennedy@gentoo.org 2006-04-26 23:33:56 0000 Sorry for the confusion arch testers, it was premature to get you involved. I dont think httpd.el works with emacs-21. paul@wolfbone.ath.cx 2006-04-27 01:35:59 0000 (In reply to comment #4) > make-network-process is the emacs-22 call, and open-network-stream-server is a > mystery. Its not in emacs-22 or emacs-21.4.1. Yes - it looks to me as though the author of httpd.el was using a snapshot of emacs when writing it: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-diffs/2004-09/msg00626.html and open-network-stream-server never made it into the actual 21.4 release or 22. So no Gentoo emacs is ever going to have it and (setq httpd-process (make-network-process :name "httpd" :buffer (generate-new-buffer "httpd") :host 'local :service port :server t :noquery t :filter 'httpd-serve)) would suffice. halcy0n@gentoo.org 2006-05-07 13:27:42 0000 mkennedy: what is going on with this? mkennedy@gentoo.org 2006-05-07 13:59:14 0000 x86 people need to remove the only stable ebuild for this (httpd-1.0.ebuild) from portage. halcy0n@gentoo.org 2006-05-07 14:43:35 0000 Put 1.0 back to ~x86. if you want the ebuild completely removed, go for it :) mkennedy@gentoo.org 2006-05-15 09:19:17 0000 Thanks.
