Error 255

On the execution of some html files I get the following error: There was an error calling the script at /home/aesptux/.config/sublime-text-2/Packages/HtmlTidy/tidy.php. Return value: 255

My PHP version:

php -v
PHP 5.3.10 (cli) (built: Feb  2 2012 22:12:16)

Hi @aesptux and thanks for reporting this issue.

It seems that you are running Linux, correct? I haven't tested HtmlTidy on Linux but you are the first to report a bug there.

So, I'd like to ask you to do two things:

First, open the Sublime Console, try to run HtmlTidy and post the debug output from HtmlTidy here.

Second, try to find tidy on your system. Actually, all Linuxes (and Mac OS X) should come with tidy preinstalled at /usr/bin/tidy. Maybe somewhere else, but if you enter

which tidy

in a terminal, it should tell you, where tidy is on your system. If it's not installed, please try to install it - probably by doing something like apt-get install tidy, but I haven't checked that...

The error message you posted tells me, that HtmlTidy tried to run the php version of tidy. This is only used as a fallback if the native tidy executable cannot be found.

I had the same issue on Linux. It happens that tidy was not preinstalled on my machine. I installed it and now everything is running smoothly.

Thanks

Return value: 255

Which tidy output:

which tidy; whereis tidy
/usr/bin/which: no tidy in (/usr/java/default/bin:/usr/java/default/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/home/aesptux/Documents/android-sdk-linux/tools:/home/aesptux/Documents/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools:/usr/bin/:/home/aesptux/.local/bin:/home/aesptux/bin:/home/aesptux/Documents/android-sdk-linux/tools:/home/aesptux/Documents/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools:/usr/bin/)
tidy:

So, as @brunohq also said, I didn't have tidy installed. I installed it (I'm running Fedora 16) and everything is working fine now.

Thank you all, I close the issue as it is solved now.
