GoSublime freezes Sublime Text on startup

[johanwikstrm]

When installing GoSublime using package control on a fresh install of Sublime Text 3, it immediately gets stuck in an infinite loop and freezes sublime text. I really need gosublime, it's such a great tool. What could be causing this?

$ cat /proc/version 
Linux version 3.2.0-4-amd64 (debian-kernel@lists.debian.org) (gcc version 4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-14) ) #1 SMP Debian 3.2.63-2+deb7u2

$ subl -v
Sublime Text Build 3065

$ go version
go version go1.4 linux/amd64

I also tried gosublime on sublime text 2 with the same results. It immediately hangs sublime text.

First thing to try is to delete all traces of GS from your Packages and Installed Packages directories, then install using git: git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/DisposaBoy/GoSublime ~/.config/sublime-text-3/Packages/GoSublime

[johanwikstrm]

Yes did it now, got the same result. sublime text completely freezes on startup

[DisposaBlackSwan]

The only thing I can think of is that there are multiple copies of the plugin on your system. After you delete traces of GS the command find ~/.config/sublime-text-3 -name '*GoSublime*' should not output anything. Also to be sure, try again:

• close ST3
• delete GS
• run the command above to confirm
• open a Go file and check that everything works and it's using ST3's Go package
• maybe check the ST3 console for any errors
• maybe confirm that PC isn't attempting to re-install it
• after that try installing again from git clone...

[johanwikstrm]

Did it again and more carefully, unfortunately with no better result. I also uninstalled PC so it wouldn't interfere.

$ killall sublime_text
$ cd ~
$ find ~/.config/sublime-text-3 -name '*GoSublime*'

And I could not find anything special in the sublime text console before pulling from git.

Is that same file always being opened? try

cd ~/.config/sublime-text-3/Packages/GoSublime
rm *.py

Open ST3. If it still freezes it's likely something to do with the syntax files, settings files, or some setting in your ST3 session. In this case remove/rename ~/.config/sublime-text-3, re-clone/copy GoSublime back to ~/.config/sublime-text-3/Packages/GoSublime and try again. If that works, we know it's something to do with the session.

If it doesn't crash after deleting the python files try disabling loading of the modules.

restore the files

git checkout .

Open GoSublime.py and add a return to the to the top of the plugin_loaded() function so it looks like below, save and re-open ST3

def plugin_loaded():
    return
    from gosubl import about

[johanwikstrm]

Yes, sublime text doesn't hang when I remove all .py files and it doesn't hang when I add

def plugin_loaded():
    return
    from gosubl import about

[johanwikstrm]

This for loop appears to be the problem. If I place the return after this loop, sublime text hangs

 for mod_name, mod in mods:
    print('GoSublime %s: init mod(%s)' % (VERSION, mod_name))

    try:
        mod.gs_init({
            'version': VERSION,
            'ann': ANN,
            'margo_exe': MARGO_EXE,
        })
    except TypeError:
        # old versions didn't take an arg
        mod.gs_init()

[johanwikstrm]

And when I comment out this line, it also stops hanging

mods = [
    ('gs', gs),
    #('sh', sh),
    ('mg9', mg9),
]

[DisposaBlackSwan]

That would prevent calling gs_init function in gosubl/sh.py. I don't see anything in there that stands out, unless calling the shell function hangs

[johanwikstrm]

Indeed, it seems this function hangs

cr = ShellCommand(cmd_str).run()

I assume it runs the string as a command on some shell? If I replace the row with

cr = ShellCommand('').run()

it doesn't hang, but if I replace it with

cr = ShellCommand('ls').run()

it still hangs. So I suppose it will hang on any command but the empty string...

[zane-techempower]

Any further word on this? GoSublime broke my Sublime text, I've tried installing it in fresh copies of Sublime Text 2 and 3 with the same result. Tried limited depth clone as well.

Really upsetting as Sublime+GoSublime is the best way to edit Go code...

[asergeyev]

Well... Not sure if it'll help anyone but I observed similar freezing today and apparently it has something to do about gocode being in your PATH and/or other dependencies needed for gosublime's configuration

[kummerer94]

I experience the same thing on Win 7 when trying to go run or any other command via ctrl + b.

It always appears right after I start to write the m in go run m (for I have a main.go file).

There is nothing in the logs.

This is my startup output:

I'm experiencing the same freezing with ST3 3103 and the latest GoSublime (installed with git clone https://github.com/DisposaBoy/GoSublime today) on Mac OS X 10.11.3.

Commenting out the #('sh', sh) line helped, thanks @johanwikstrm! But that doesn't seem to be the proper solution. What would the proper solution be? Or are you welcoming a PR?

I suspect this might have something to do with that many of my shell utilities (like cat or ls) are links, but I haven't investigate it yet.
