Racket mode is just not working. Can someone please help me? #698

Closed okirpane closed 8 months ago

I have installed and reinstalled racket-mode as outlined in the manual.

When I start up emacs after installing racket-mode, I keep getting the following error:

{racket-back-end-/} exited abnormally with code 1

I'm lost on what I can do to fix this. Can someone help me?

@okirpane The error message might be longer than {racket-back-end-/} exited abnormally with code 1, but Emacs might not show it in the echo area at the bottom.

If you switch to the Emacs *Messages* buffer, is there more text, and if so can you share it with me?

p.s.

  1. You wrote that it errors when you start up emacs. Did you mean that literally -- before even trying to open a .rkt file or do M-x racket-mode, just starting emacs, you get that error about the back end? If so, could you please share some of your emacs init file where you configure this, if any?

  2. What happens if you try to M-x find-file and open some .rkt file?

  3. Can you please do M-x racket-bug-report and paste the results here? (It's best if you can do this from a buffer in which racket-mode is the major mode. But if for some reason you can't, it would still be helpful from any buffer. It would give me some idea of your system and versions of things.)

Closing because no reply; nothing for me to do.

If someday you do return, I'd be glad to reopen, and spend more time to figure it out with you.
