Unable to open files about uncledavesemacs HOT 10 CLOSED

Commenting out (exwm-enable) in the config resolved the issue under OSX as well. Thanks for the help.

Great config, by the way.

"does not open the text file"
How exactly? Is emacs still launched? Is there an error in the Messages buffer? Is emacs already running in the background?

See what happens if you launch emacs and then in a terminal do emacsclient tests.txt

Also make sure to pull the latest changes, emacs-server starts by default now.

from uncledavesemacs.

No error message shows up. Just the emacs scratch. emacsclient tests.txt does not open. It just shows the emacs scratch window. Once I delete the .emacs.d directory, I am able to open files with emacs tests.txt. I like your setting and would like to use it as a base for my emacs but it is very difficult to use it when it is difficult to open files. Do you know if there is a setting somewhere that needs to be set? I am using mac and emacs version 25 also using zshell.

from uncledavesemacs.

this is very odd behaviour, it does not happen on GNU/Linux or on Windows, I will ask around for folks using MacOS and see if I can find the cause.

What happens if you launch emacs normally and then C-x C-f to find and open a file?

from uncledavesemacs.

Actually, C-x C-f does not open files either.

UPDATE:
I just cloned this on my Ubuntu environment and I am still unable to open files with emacs fileName. When emacs starts, with and without fileName, it asks Replace existing window manager? (y or n). I said, no because I do not want to replace my window manager. Regardless, the fileName never opens. Not even with C-x C-f.

I just tested on 2 gnu/linux machines and on windows, it works flawlessly and honestly I have no idea what could be causing this.

Thanks very much. This is the message I get when emacs first starts after cloning Warning (emacs): [EXWM] EXWM fails to start (void-function: (class-v)). Is there way to exclude EXWM from the config? Possibly without deleting it.

Also, each time I start emacs it asks if I want to Replace existing window manager? (y or n). when I say n, it displays Warning (emacs): [EXWM] EXWM fails to start (error: (Other window manager detected))

Find (exwm-enable) and delete it, see if it helps

from uncledavesemacs.

EXCELLENT. Works now on Ubuntu. Going try again later on my mac and report back. Thanks very much.

Great, let me know how it fares under OSX
