configuration incomplete

[miherrm]

Hello Aaron,

I installed the new gem Version which fixed the Configuration::Methadone problem. Thanks for that! I run "srd init" which downloads Dropbox-Uploader (which is then authorized) and aks for the necessary paths. After confirming the default paths (yes, I fitted my environment to the defaults) everything looks fine. I run "srd exec" afterwards, to see if it works...nope. srd says, it needs to make some config changes. OK, lets go through the few steps. But when I try to run srd the next time the story starts right from the beginning...

# This version needs to make some config changes.
# Don't worry; when prompted, your current values for
# existing config options will be presented (so it'll
# be easier to fly through the upgrade).
# Press enter to continue:   
---> CONFIGURING DROPBOX UPLOADER...
# Location for Dropbox-Uploader [default: /Applications]: 
# Using pre-existing Dropbox Uploader at /Applications/Dropbox-Uploader...
---> COLLECTING PREFERENCES...
# Temporary path to download Sifttter files to  /tmp/sifttter
# Path to Sifttter files in Dropbox  /Apps/ifttt/sifttter
# Temporary path to download Day One files to  /tmp/dayone
# Path to Day One files in Dropbox  /Apps/Day\ One/Journal.dayone/entries

Looking at ~/.sifttter_redux reveals that the paths seem to be missing. Following the results of

cat ~/.sifttter_redux | pbcopy

---
sifttter_redux: {}
:db_uploader:
  :base_filepath: /Applications
  :dbu_filepath: /Applications/Dropbox-Uploader
  :exe_filepath: /Applications/Dropbox-Uploader/dropbox_uploader.sh

Even running "srd init" with sudo doesn't help. Any idea?

Hi @miherrm! Sorry for the trouble. That config file is missing some info. Try this: with the latest gem, run srd init -s. Depending on the results, post back here with the content of ~/.sifttter_redux. We'll get this resolved quickly!

Hi,

after running srd init -s (btw, I had to run it with sudo rights, otherwise I get "permission denied" at the end), ~/.sifttter_reduxlooks like this - pretty much the same...

---
sifttter_redux: {}
:db_uploader:
  :base_filepath: /Applications
  :dbu_filepath: /Applications/Dropbox-Uploader
  :exe_filepath: /Applications/Dropbox-Uploader/dropbox_uploader.sh

FYI, you're getting that error because your GEM_HOME and/or GEM_PATH env variables aren't set (see here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2619695/gem-install-permission-problem).

I'm able to reproduce that configuration bug. Working on a fix now!

Thanks for your patience, @miherrm. I just pushed version 0.5.4, which should fix this issue. Please update your gem, run, and feel free to post a new issue if needed.

Thanks for the fix - and the additional tip. I'll give it a try as soon as I'm back from work in the evening.

Impatience vs. me - 1:0. :-) It's working like a charm, thank you!

[bachya]

Fantastic! Thanks so much for helping me find that bug!
