I'm having the same problem: anyone got a solution?

nightwing · 2015-04-04T14:31:22Z

Interesting, it seems to try to install tmux even though you have it installed

Maybe there is a bug in version checking at https://github.com/c9/install/blob/master/install.sh#L283.
Could you try running

has() {
  type "$1" > /dev/null 2>&1
  return $?
}
check_tmux_version(){
  echo "tmux: $1"
  if [ ! -x $1 ]; then
    return 1
  fi
  tmux_version=$($1 -V | sed -e's/[a-z ]//g')  
  echo "tmux_version: $tmux_version"
  if [ ! "$tmux_version" ]; then
    return 1
  fi

  if [ $(python -c "ok = 1 if 1.7<=$tmux_version else 0; print ok") -eq 1 ]; then
    return 0
  else
    return 1
  fi
}

echo has "tmux" 
echo `tmux -V`
check_tmux_version `which tmux`;

to see where it goes wrong

Terminal output:

[richard@server ~]$ check_tmux_version `which tmux`;

    ok = 1 if 1.7<=1.9 else 0; print ok

What is the version of python?

burlingk · 2015-04-04T20:31:56Z

It has been a while since I made it happened, but I once if thened my way
through the install file to get it up and going.

Some extra code is needed to make it properly detect the python version as
well, because Arch is set up to install Python2 and Python3 at the same
time.

Python is version 3.4.3 .
The command line output was supposed to be this, not what I posted before (doubt it makes much of a difference though):

 [richard@server ~]$ bash script.sh
has tmux
tmux 1.9a
tmux: /usr/bin/tmux
tmux_version: 1.9
  File "<string>", line 1
    ok = 1 if 1.7<=1.9 else 0; print ok
                                      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
script.sh: line 16: [: -eq: unary operator expected

nightwing · 2015-04-04T22:28:33Z

indeed it was caused by wrong python version, i tried to make it's usage more consistent
#43
@microbug could you try installing with the version from that pull request by running
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/c9/install/python/install.sh | bash

microbug · 2015-04-05T09:29:02Z

EDIT: I installed python2 and tried, and it didn't make a difference. Python3 is the default one though so that may be why.

If tmux is not installed the same error as in the first post occurs. If it is, the tmux section works fine but the script fails when installing pty.js:

Thanks for the update. I've pushed a fix for this to #43.

WowSuchRicky · 2016-02-24T00:16:40Z

Just now had the same issue happen to me in Arch as well. Same deal with ncurses - already had it installed, but had to jimmy-rig the installer by tarballing the ncurses-5.9 folder after patching with http://pastebin.com/raw/ewxjBXV6 and then run the install script again. Technically gcc5.x's fault, but I did already have the package.
