if I run  
script/console production  
it runs in production  
if I run  
script/server production  
it does nothing.

Should I tell the core people to make this more consistent?  
Maybe a patch s.t. script/server production works?

I’ll admit it–I dislike how everything takes different parameters.

Isn’t it supposed to be script/server -e production

It is–I just wish it were consistent with the others which don’t use a  
-e [and I realize that it expects a webrick as the first parameter]
