Expandrive + textmate = crash?

latest version of expandrive, and Textmate and the finder keep beachballing..
but i think i figured out when it happens,..

When i openup more than one connection to the same server it happens.

I don't know if I have more than one connection (I don't think so), but I am having the same problem. It works fine for awhile, then TextMate hangs upon trying to save a file all of a sudden. I have a difficult time force quitting it, too. Then Finder starts to hang. If I finally manage to quit TextMate, it won't restart until I quit ExpanDrive and relaunch Finder

I have the exact same problem, also when I just have one connection open to the server. Finder crashes right after I force quit TextMate

I tried to reinstall ExpanDrive but it didn't make any difference.

correction,... it also happens when i have one connection open.

can you magnetk guys reproduce the problem?

it happens with both single files and projects, although it happens a lot sooner with projects.

Is there a way you can change this topic to a "report a problem" jeff?

Most of the time I have a full project open, but with only 3 to 5 open documents and just saving one file at once.

It doesn't happen all the time, but it does happen quit often. TextMate is not responding right now, for like the third time today.

I'm using Mac OS X 10.5.2 and ExpanDrive Version 1.2.2 (2008.05.21)

Textmate does a lot of refreshing by default when you have projects open. I would recommend trying ReMate to allow you to manually refresh your project. http://ciaranwal.sh/remate/

I've seen this behaviour as well, but only a couple of odd times that I couldn't reproduce. When it happened the file had actually saved properly, but Textmate didn't seem to pick up on it (the little upper left black dot was still showing on the file as unsaved). When checking the file at the other end of the share the file was updated ok.

Might be a dropping problem, I've seen this happen before when I had an internet hiccup and expandrive lost the connect (but didn't realize it). One of the situations where you see nothing in the share ... unmount/remount solved this one for me as well. Hope this helps to find/reproduce the issue.

Have had this issue happen about 4-5 times in the last 2 days ... always when working in a large project. I wonder if remate itself could be an issue here? (it seems to show up in the crash report)

Also worth noting, it completely zombies Textmate for me here most times. Have to reboot to solve this issue.

Remate doesn't fix the problem here..
I know it's not my internet connection, because i'm monitoring my line too en when TM/EXPD crash the line is normal and stable.

Do you guys have short lines with the textmate guys?

I have ReMate already installed but it doesn't maken any difference.

It happends at random, wether I have a single file or a whole project open. And when it happened the file is actually saved, but Textmate didn't seem to pick it up.

yes please!

Yep sure can.

any news after you received the info?

Today I've noticed a lot of finder crashes while trying to copy stuff from local to server using expan drive,.. so it seems that the problem has nothing to do with textmate,...

EXPANDRIVE_DROP_CONNECTION:

6/2/08 12:27:17 AM ExpanDrive[132] Not a command EXPANDRIVE_DROP_CONNECTION

I killed the finder process after 10 minutes.

Likewise having similar problems with Textmate and ExpanDrive...

As per the format above:

1. provider you're connecting to: MediaTemple GS account
2. type of mac: Macbook 2.16GHz
3. type of internet connection: Wireless DSL (SkyPilot analogue)
4. general use case when it crashes: editing CSS files in textmate which have been generally opened from the Finder.
5. any specific way you can make it crash: no real rhyme or reason; textmate suddenly beachballs and I cannot force quit requiring a reboot. The remote Mediatemple drive icon is still active in Finder but I cannot eject the remote drive as well once textmate stops responding
6. if you're using any textmate plugins: none

The strange thing is that using textmate and expandrive has been a wonderful and liberating experience! it's only in the last couple of days that it has become a problem. I had been using a nightly build of expandrive to overcome the mediatemple connection problems and use this version now: 1.2.3 (2008.05.22)

Cheers!

Same problem for me. It appears more often when I edit single files. The beachball appears when I do a cmd-s and I have to relaunch finder etc... But the file is correctly saved on the server.
I have last versions of textmate and expandrive and we are 3 people working on the same server with different sftp clients and different ips.

I can confirm that similar things happen here for me, when I beachball the file is always saved ok.

Jeff, can you please tell us when you think it's fixed?
because if it's not soon i would like to have a refund

I can't work properly at the moment.

I thought you told me I would get a debug version
so i could help you..

Wow, so I'm not the only one with this issue. I just downloaded TextMate today and bought Expandrive. But it's basically of no use to me until this issue is fixed. It seems to happen whenever I have a project open, as opposed to just opening individual files. But I just started using it an hour ago, so I don't know the exact use cases that trigger the problem. Hope this is fixed ASAP.

I think this is the same issue I'm having, that I posted in a different discussion:

http://getsatisfaction.com/magnetk/to...

However, I'm having the same issue with CSS Edit, as well as TextMate.

ExpanDrive 1.2.2

TextMate 1.5.7

CSS Edit 2.6

OSX 10.5.3, but the issue has been happening since 10.5.2

still having the same issue 3 months later... any luck with a solution to this yet?

n/m I got it working... if there's a permission error while trying to save the file it freezes TextMate. Not sure if it's the same issue anyone else was having, but it solved my problem.

Same problem! Was this ever resolved?

Make sure the user your using to connect has full permissions on the folder you're trying to edit. That fixed my problem.

Hope that helps

I have the same problem and I post this several weeks ago :
http://getsatisfaction.com/expandrive...

When you work in a clearcase (like SVN) system, checked-in files are RO and you don't have permission to write them because they are not checked-out !

My trying period is expired and I cannot buy a product which cannot run perfectly... And I cannot try new versions...

Today i bought a licence after updating my trial, but now TextMate freezes when opening a project, this didn't happen before the update.

1. provider you're connecting to: PCextreme.nl (dutch hosting provider)
2. type of mac: iMac 24"
3. type of internet connection: 20mbit adsl
4. general use case when it crashes: opening an folder via FTP
5. any specific way you can make it crash: see 5
6. if you're using any textmate plugins: projectplus
