Windows Vista

Problem with toolbox buttons

A problem has cropped up since, I think, the latest Komodo upgrade on my Windows Vista system. The toolbox buttons I created to run a script or external program all pop up a dialog saying "Unknown error running C:[pathname of the program that the button is supposed to run]"

I uninstalled Komodo and reinstalled the 5.03 version that I downloaded last December, and the problem went away. When I then used Help/Check for updates and updated back to the latest version, the problem returned.

The Komodo error log shows entries like:

Remote debug - guestbook.php test

Hi,

I'm running Vista Home and trying to remote debug to the linux 64-bit box (Centos). I had bluehost install the xdebug.

Here is the phpinfo output with the xdebug displaying in the zend module section:

Curiously, I don't know if the xdebug is properly installed as the help file did mention trying the command line "php -m". The output from "php -m" is:

Komodo edit run function breaks after restart

I just installed Komodo edit, and unfortunately I got a very bad first impression.
I just wanted to start with a simple script and try it out. So I went in to ctrl-r and typed in
%(python) "%F"
The script executed just fine and as expected.
Then, later, I restarted the editor, and now suddenly, the same run command just throws me an error (Se below).

The same error happens whatever I try to run from komodo, for example the "Run the default browser" gives me the same error.

Watch tab - where is it?

Hi,

I must have blinders on because I can't find the watch tab. I'd like to set some variables on watch. Sorry for this question as I'm just learning this IDE.

I'm on trial and finally got bluehost.com to install the xdebug and I'm trying to test the remote debugger. I only have 4 days left in the trial version and haven't really been able to test it since I was waiting on bluehost. Took weeks just to get the xdebug installed. Am wondering if it's possible to get an extension on this trial version too.

Much thanks,

Komodo and Sybase

Trying out Komodo and using it to connect to Sybase. Using perl code but when I run an exe or batch file that connects to Sybase, it's not working. I used to use it on XP and it worked fine but when I switched to Vista, I can't get it to work.

Any ideas?

Komodo probs with Vista

Neither Komodo Personal 3.5 nor Komodo Edit 5.11 work on my Vista platform. Both versions install withour problems. After program launch, I get this error message:

"Komodo was unable to open file: startpage.xml#vie-startpage".

and then:

----------------------------
"Error activating Code Intelligence backend: CantOpenError: unable to open database file

Komodo personal, version 3.5.3, build 262321.
Built on Wed May 03 11:40:26 2006." (and a respective message with Komodo Edit 5.11)

Auto Complete with Python issue

I have a question on what puthon auto complete can and cannot do.

I am using python 2.6 and added the correct auto complete dictionary and everything seems to work great, but there seems to be an anoying limitation.

lets say I define a class FOO, and then make a list of FOO objects

A = [FOO1, FOO2, FOO3]

now attempting to iterate over the list A, auto complete does not list any methods belonging to my FOO class

so A[0]. (does not cause auto complete to put up a list of my methods)

in java you would solve this by casting, say

(FOO)A[0]

Komodo Abbreviations / Multiline Edit

#1) Is there a way to tweak Komodo so that Abbreviations are triggered by the tab key instead of ctrl+t

Trying to see if I can get the best of both worlds here (autocomplete and abbreviations done with the same key)

#2) Is there a way to do multiline editing like what e-texteditor and intype do?

readdir stopped working

Has anybody had any problems with readdir. My code which worked fine until a couple of weeks ago no longer reads the directory. I just get . (full-stop) e.g.

opendir DIR, "$root" || die "Can't open dir $!";
my @entries = readdir(DIR) || print "Failed to read $!\n"; # select out ordinary files
closedir DIR || print "Failed to read $!\n";
print $root,"\n",@entries,"\n\n";

Output

D:/SD/
.

Hit key when ready

but there are 84 files in SD not apparently read-only or hidden.

xdebug not displaying with php -m

Hi,

I'm having trouble with getting xdebug to be installed successfully. The steps are pretty simple but I can't get it to work on bluehost.com. I uploaded the xdebug.so file (64-bit linux) to the public_html folder. Then in the public_html folder I changed the php.in file. Deleted the lines referencing Zend Debug and Zend Optimizer (they are no longer appearing with php -m) and then added these lines below the Dynamics Extensions:

; xdebug config for Linux and Mac OS X
zend_extension=/home/[user]/public_html/xdebug.so
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_handler=dbgp
