Detaching from server started with `wemux start` exits tmux #58

Open saleyn opened 8 years ago

I am starting a server with wemux start and detaching from it using Ctrl-b,D. I expect that that should leave the tmux session running in the background. However it looks like that session gets killed upon detaching, and tmux list states that there are no servers.

How do you detach and leave the session running so that it's possible to re-attach later?

I am having the same issue. Anyone found a fix?

@saleyn Here is what I ended up doing. I used screen to create a wemux session. So instead of using ctrl-b d to disconnect you will just use ctrl-a d to detach using screen. Works well for now. If you have any questions ill be happy to help.

@TommieIV, thanks for the tip. Though this workaround is functional, the whole point of using tmux was to get away from screen all together. So, it would be great to see a "native" wemux solution from the author.

I noticed that if you set the following option in the config file, then the detached sessions work correctly:

announce_attach="false"

Apparently this is a tmux issue. See this: https://github.com/tmux/tmux/issues/513.
