remote-atom not starting server on Windows #12

Open iwoloschin opened 9 years ago

iwoloschin commented 9 years ago

I've been using remote-atom on OS X for a while and it's been great, but I've recently tried using it on Windows 7 and I've found it fails to start the server, and only says "Unable to start server". I'm not familiar enough with Coffeescript to know if this is a dependency issue (Windows missing something OS X has by default?) or something more. I'm happy to test stuff out, just not sure how to proceed from here.

It has not been tested on any windows platform. I don't own a windows machine, I will take a look into it whenever it is possible.

I have tested on windows and it works successfully. Completed a fresh install of Atom and remote-atom on windows 8.1 and used putty for the SSH client. No other dependencies were required.

thanks for your information.

@blastdan how did you set up Putty to get it to work on your windows 8.1 system? I'm a little new to ssh/linux in general, so maybe I'm missing something obvious.

blastdan commented 9 years ago

So this link is for sublime, not atom, but the ports are the same and shows how to do SSH tunnling to get this working. https://blog.cs.wmich.edu/sublime-text-putty-and-you/

Thanks! That worked perfectly!

Also be sure that nothing else is listening on the same port. On OS X, I had to kill TextMate's rmate listener.

If I can reproduce, I'll open a new bug report for remote-atom not erroring on server start.

Advice : Kill the process listening to the 50000 port. Disclaimer : this will shutdown Atom so save your opened files.

kill -9 $(lsof -t -i:50000)
