DESCRIPTION

This script uses HTTP::Daemon to implement a standalone web server running OpenInteract 2. Once it's started you shouldn't be able to tell the difference between its OpenInteract the same application running on Apache, Apache2, or CGI -- it will have the same users, hit the same database, manipulate the same packages, etc.

Performance note: this daemon will not win any speed contests. It will work fine for a handful of users (even if you have big hands), but if you're deploying a serious application you should look strongly at Apache and mod_perl.

Please see HTTP::Daemon::OpenInteract2 for additional documentation.
