as you see it listens to 1515 until a connection is established and
then it accepts it...
the problem is that when it accepts the connection it sends those
strings and exits, but then it exits the program. i want it to listen
to 1515 then accept a connection, send.. and then listen to the port
again and again until new connections are found.

And now you get to start asking all the interesting questions that come
up, like "How do I get my server to respond to multiple requests in
parallel?"

It's a long road, but it's fun.

Re: tcp

you could at least check before posting. as i said i've tried like
1000 ways of doing that, and im so desparate that i'm thinking of
quiting python. This damn thing just doesnt work. when i do as you
post the server never even replies, as it tends to accept connections
all the time.

anyone has a better idea?

How To Ask Questions The Smart Way

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Nobody here knows what you did - post code & stacktraces of at least one
of your "1000 ways". Or quit python and try a language that is more
friendly to reading your mind instead requiring you to spell out things
in a computer readable way. You might need to hibernate a couple of
centuries though until it's sufficient to open notepad and write "I'm a
ubercool programmer, do make me the application of my dreams".

Re: tcp

sorry for acting like a fool but this is just to weirdly easy that i
can't get to work. i've written a small web server in another language
and this is more like copying code.
i already have everything figured out, except this one but noone seems
either willing or capable of helping me.
again sorry but i was in a very bad mood.

Re: tcp

i would like to apologize once more. i understand that you are saying
"what a fool he is waiting for us to solve all his problems", cause
i've said that for other posts, when they seemed "immature". It's just
that i couldn't find a way out of 20 lines of code and this drove me
mad.

i end this topic here.

Because you don't seem either willing or capable of describing
your problem in enough detail to allow anybody to help you.

Post a small program that demonstrates the "problem".

Describe precisely how that program fails to do what you want
it to.

Writing a webserver (you NEVER stated that that is your ultimate goal)
is a two-liner in Python.

See the module SimpleHTTPServe r.

Using the extremely lowlevel module socket is a totally different beast.
It requires rather deep knowledge of unix sockets, and has a steep
learning curve.

If you want to use the socket module, take a look at

Page not found :()

http://holdenweb.com/py/networking/

which contains links to some fairly explicit notes about how to write
TCP and UDP servers in Python.

Nobody thinks you are a fool for wanting help with your problems, it's
simply that you have to provide enough information about what' wring for
us to get a handle on the issues.

This worked:

import socket
from time import time

for i in range( 20 ):
HOST = ''
PORT = 80 #<----
s = socket.socket(s ocket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STR EAM)
s.bind((HOST, PORT))
print( 'listen' )
s.listen(1)
conn, addr = s.accept()
print( 'connected', addr )
print( conn.recv( 4096 ) ) #<----
conn.send( bytes('<html><b ody>test %f</body></
html>'%time(),' ascii') )
conn.close() #<----
s.close()

... and connect with a browser: http://localhost/ if it's internet
exploder.

Re: tcp

thanks everybody, i've got this to work. i'm not trying to write an
actual web server, i'm just using it for some procedures like URL
rewriting.
