Okay thinking about this. I guess /rc/bin/cpurc has a line

	# cpu+auth server
	auth/keyfs -wp -m /mnt/keys /adm/keys
	aux/listen -q -t /rc/bin/service.auth -d $serviced tcp

Which I guess points to tcp services or /rc/bin/services

cpu% cat tcp80
#!/bin/rc
exec /rc/bin/rc-httpd/rc-httpd >>[2]/sys/log/www
cpu% 

So how do I get the user to run this. Do I just pull it out of cpurc and add it to /usr/www/lib/profile or
clearly i'm confused?

I guess I always drawterm and log in as glenda the run rcpu -u www. So I should do that
and manually run 

aux/listen -q -t /rc/bin/service.auth -d $serviced tcp

sorry i haven't had time to look into this more closely yet, but i run all the werc apps on 9front under rc-httpd, and they all work without modification. most of the errors generated by missing unix commands can be safely ignored *if things are working*. werc was written on linux, and mostly assumes you are running some flavor of plan9port tools on a unix. i will have to look into apps/ further to see if some of these errors can be trimmed.

your errors about the missing directories indicate whatever user is executing werc (whomever rc-httpd is running as) does not have permission to create those missing directories, so is failing. how are you launching rc-httpd, exactly?

the path werc/sites/cirno also seems questionable. the directories under sites/ are meant to correspond to domain names.
