The speedup of using Unison instead of NFS is awesome (I have just got it installed :+1: ) but I'm getting this message all the time throughout the polling. Host is Windows 7 Pro, Guest is Ubuntu 14.04.

What does it mean, and is there any option to turn on a more verbose output?

Sorry for the delayed response

Could it be a combination of windows & unix paths? For instance, shouldn't all the windows paths be using backslashes?

Try running the unison command explicitly in your host, i.e:

unison D:/ia/ ssh://vagrant@127.0.0.1//var/www -terse -repeat 1 -sshargs "-p 2222  -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o IdentitiesOnly=yes -i D:/ia/.vagrant/machines/iadev/virtualbox/private_key

If that still shows the error, i would try removing the /dev/null part since i don't think that makes sense on windows, and double check that the private_key path is correct, maybe it needs to be changed to use backslashes?

I don't have a windows host to test this on (or own a windows license to install as a vagrant guest) so unfortunately I can't be much help in debugging this.

@dcosson Yeah, with windows paths specified to use backslashes there is no such error about hosts.

Warning: Permanently added '[127.0.0.1]:2222' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.

Also I cannot reproduce this subject error after that manipulation. Maybe it also fixes that.

@Hyperc0der Not sure I follow, sorry. Are you referring to the ssh warning quoted? That's because of the ssh settings with user known hosts being set to /dev/null, if you have a solution that'll let us not skip ssh authentication but will continue to work if you destroy & re-create the vm I'd love to fix this.

dcosson commented 7 years ago

@pbowyer If you got this working and want to submit a patch that'll use the right paths on Windows or OSX, that would be awesome. I don't ever use a Windows host.

pbowyer commented 7 years ago

@dcosson I got it working and will have to dig out this VM to see how (haven't used it for a few months). I had it working well for our 2-person team (one a Windows host, the other OSX)
