No logging in case of failure about linux-window-session-manager HOT 13 CLOSED

Are you using Wayland by any chance. Pure Wayland applications are simply not recognized (and currently it seems there is no way around it :()

from linux-window-session-manager.

I'm using unity, which isn't over Wayland I believe? Either way it is probably a good idea to check and give an error, maybe?

from linux-window-session-manager.

Normally error logging should work. There are a lot of promises though. Might be that something gets swallowed there. I'll check tomorrow.

Could you maybe give me a little bit more of context? What applications do you have opened and what is saved inside ~/.lwsm?

Mhh that's interesting. Could you run mkdir ~/.lwsm && mkdir ~/.lwsm/sessionData and try again? If that doesn't work trying to save with just one or two apps might be helpful to be see if the issue is related to a particular app or occurs every time.

Creating the folders didn't seem to help, the folders are still empty after running lwsm save and lwsm restore with no message.
Closing apps would sort of defeat the purpose of trying to save the current setup which takes a while to bring up... But I'll try that later

from linux-window-session-manager.

I checked all promise occurrences and added catch handlers. Hopefully everything is covered now.

Was it uploaded to npm already or should I clone into the repo?

This didn't work, so I updated nodejs and that seemed to solve the problem.
Now I get this:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/linux-window-session-manager/cmd.js:3
const base = require('./lib/index');

Äh what version of nodejs to you have installed now?

from linux-window-session-manager.

node -v returns v0.10.25

from linux-window-session-manager.

Yeah, so it seems there is something wrong with my app repo configurations which gave all this trouble. After manually installing node v8.9.3 everything seems to work perfectly.
Thanks very much!
