Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token O in JSON at position 8

[MoOx]

[Enter steps to reproduce:]

1. Ocaml merlin is running in infinite mode (spinner in the toolbar) - it's like that since a recent atom update
2. I located ocaml via which ocaml and forced the bin path in this package config
3. I disabled this plugin
4. I re-enabled this plugin & boom

Atom: 1.23.3 x64 Electron: 1.6.15 OS: Mac OS X 10.13.2 Thrown From: ocaml-merlin package 0.14.4

Which version of merlin do you have installed?

[MoOx]

I followed reason doc and ended up with this

$ ocamlmerlin -version 
The Merlin toolkit version 2.5.4, for Ocaml 4.02.3

[MoOx]

Note that I am not sure why but plugin don't work. I still have the infinite tiny spinner saying

Ocaml Merlin running on: *

This for each file open. In the console I use bsb -make-world and it's totally working. Not sure how to debug the state of this plugin :/
