Never shows task chooser, but shows working in footer bar

[custa1200]

Hi, I have installed sublime-gulp into the latest version of Sublime 3 (3114) but it what I select it from the Sublime menu I do not get shown the task chooser yet the Gulp: Working is shown in the footer with the progress indicator moving. Not sure what is wrong. Running the latest version of OSX on a new MacBook

Hm that's weird, did you take a look at Troubleshooting section?

If that does not help, can you tell me the output of the Sublime Console after you run the command ? (you can access it from View -> Show Console)

After I command shift p and select Gulp nothing shows in the console. the following is what loads when I launch Sublime.

I can run all commands from the Tools > Gulp menu except for List Tasks to run

[custa1200]

It does create and remove a tmp file before it deletes it and creates sublime-gulp.cache file but never shows the task list :(

[nicosantangelo]

Weird!

. First of all, could you paste here the contents of the . sublime-gulp.cache file ? . Next, do you see a sublime-gulp.log file ? *. Lastly, could you try in a stripped down example ?, by that I mean a gulpfile.js like this:

var gulp = require('gulp');

gulp.task('simple', function() {
  console.log('Hey!')
});

to see what happens

[custa1200]

cache file contents:

{"/Users/mjohnston/projects/styleglide/gulpfile.js":{"sha1":"c68a41a181776df813089b40763ca87f155b28e0","tasks":{"svgsprite":{"name":"svgsprite","dependencies":"images"},"images":{"name":"images","dependencies":""},"sourcecss":{"name":"sourcecss","dependencies":""},"specs":{"name":"specs","dependencies":""},"css":{"name":"css","dependencies":"specs"},"default":{"name":"default","dependencies":"specs css"}}}}

There is no log file created. :(

[custa1200]

When I try to run with the basic gulfile.js I get:

Wen I run arbitrary task and put simple it it runs.

[custa1200]

So Just noticed in that dialog It is looking for "Projects", I had since named my folder to "projects", arghhh. Any idea how I can safely change this to "projects" and not have Sublime Gulp break?

[custa1200]

Seems after rejigging I now have it working with "projects" it's a bit of a gotcha though if somebody renames a folder. not sure if others have run into it or it need a note describe the issue.

@NicoSantangelo I am happy to close this unless you want it open to work out if there is any outcomes you want to address.

First of all, thanks a lot for the followup, I can't believe this issue didn't come up sooner!.

I'm going to do the following:

1. Write a warning on the README pointing to this issue (so if you don't mind leave it open so it acts as a reminder)
2. See if the package can perform a little check to verify the path stored on the cache and at least throw a warning

Again thanks a lot for your help and I'm glad you got it working

[custa1200]

Thank you, it was that last step of where I saw the case difference on the path in the dialog which triggered the thought.
