[prog110]

• I am on the latest Hyper.app version

Issue

When I try to launch hyper, I get the following error & terminal window is not launched

Same here, but I'm using ubuntu 16.04, I uninstalled the previous version, and then I install the latest. But as was mentioned in the title the hyper not run and the same error happens over here.

How we can help to fix it :) I'd like to help somehow.

Maybe this is an issue with Gaze .

shama/gaze#214

I never got past this error from the previous releases.

I built the application manually after changing dirname variable in gaze.js in node_modules folder and it works.

    var readdir = fs.readdirSync(dirname);  //Change here - Add Current Folder
    for (var j = 0; j < readdir.length; j++) {
      var dirfile = path.join(dirname, readdir[j]);
      if (fs.lstatSync(dirfile).isDirectory()) {
        helper.objectPush(this._watched, dirname, dirfile + path.sep);
      }
    }

I don't know how to change this in gaze.js and not to rebuild manually :( in the version 1.0.1 of the hyper still not working and report the same error from gaze

[caiocutrim]

how can I change and what I need to put in this dirname? Sorry for this noob question I'm trying to fix, but I can't understand this part of code.

[caiocutrim]

I change the snippet that was posted for you, and to date it works but it closes immediately .

[caiocutrim]

It works, it was closed immediately because it founds the hyper_plugins directory and crashes, by fixing that it is necessary removing the plugins directory and run again.

Hey there, please try again with the new Hyper v2 release and open a new issue if the problem stills exists. Thank you!
