Error with all commands

[rremigius]

Hi!

Thanks for creating and sharing this tool, should be very useful if I could get it to work. I'm looking at an error generated with every command I try (both deploy and status). Maybe I did something wrong but the error is not very informative.

This is my dandelion.yml:

scheme: ftp
host: mysite.nl
username: myname
password: mypass
path: domains/mysite.nl/public_html/mysite
exclude:
    - .gitignore
    - dandelion.yml

After typing >dandelion status, this is the error I get:

I know I'm getting access to the server, because I had the no-access error earlier (typo in settings). I'm on Windows 7, 32 bit and I use the latest versions of Git and Ruby. If you need more information, please ask.

This (sadly) appears to be due to posix-spawn not working on windows

Yeah, that's unfortunate. Looks like it could be done though: https://github.com/rtomayko/posix-spawn#posixspawnchild

Closing.
