cannot get anything to work

[marcucio]

I just did a clean install. I right clicked on project -> remote sync -> configure, nothing happens.

I also tried manually create the config file and still noting.

Is this supposed to work on OSX?

Thanks

Yes it should work fine. Are there any error messages? Which version of atom are you running?

If there are JSON errors in .remote-sync.json, it will not load the package, however it currently leaves the menu options in the the context menu, they just do nothing, like you're describing. If this were the case however, it would have displayed a large error message within Atom at launch.

You could try putting nothing but { } in .remote-sync.json, relaunching atom, then try open the configure menu. That should be more or less fool proof...

I get the following error:

Failed to require the main module of 'remote-sync' because it requires one or more incompatible native modules (fsevents, binding, binding, binding, binding, binding, binding). Run apm rebuild in the package directory and restart Atom to resolve.

I ran apm rebuild in /Users/mike/.atom/packages/remote-sync and I still get the same issue

Which versions of Atom / Remote Sync are you using?

[marcucio]

I tried in atom 1.22.0 And atom beta 1.22.0 x64 the package.json for remote sync shows remote-sync@4.1.8

I also updated OSX recently to latest version Maybe I need to rebuild all atom plugins? If so how would I do that?

remote-sync 4.1.8

fsevents@1.1.3 – Cannot find module '/Users/mike/.atom/packages/remote-sync/node_modules/fsevents/lib/binding/Release/electron-v1.6-darwin-x64/fse.node' binding@1.1.3 – Cannot find module '/Users/mike/.atom/packages/remote-sync/node_modules/fsevents/lib/binding' binding@1.1.3 – Cannot find module '/Users/mike/.atom/packages/remote-sync/node_modules/fsevents/lib/binding' binding@1.1.3 – Cannot find module '/Users/mike/.atom/packages/remote-sync/node_modules/fsevents/lib/binding' binding@1.1.3 – Cannot find module '/Users/mike/.atom/packages/remote-sync/node_modules/fsevents/lib/binding' binding@1.1.3 – Cannot find module '/Users/mike/.atom/packages/remote-sync/node_modules/fsevents/lib/binding' binding@1.1.3 – Cannot find module '/Users/mike/.atom/packages/remote-sync/node_modules/fsevents/lib/binding'

Maybe I need to rebuild all atom plugins? If so how would I do that?

Just what I was about to mention...

apm can get into a bit of a tizzy, it seems, if it has been upgrading packages for a while. You can try deleting: /Users/mike/.atom/packages/remote-sync/node_modules and running apm rebuild again (Sometimes it's the cached downloads that are corrupted, or incorrect versioned, etc.)

This post about another package might have some useful info: https://github.com/icetee/remote-ftp/issues/839

apm rebuild from within atom seemed to fix, from the command line it did not fix

thanks for the help
