I cannot cider jack-in. I get a stacktrace rather than a REPL.

reefersleep08:03:21

When I hit spc + m + s + i, I get the following text in the bottom:

reefersleep08:03:35

Starting nREPL server via lein update-in :dependencies conj ^"[org.clojure/tools.nrepl \^"0.2.12\^"]^" -- update-in :plugins conj ^"[refactor-nrepl \^"2.2.0-SNAPSHOT\^"]^" --update-in :plugins conj ^"[cider/cier-nrepl \^"0.12.0-SNAPSHOT\^"]^" -- repl :headless...

reefersleep08:03:33

Followed by the appearance of this stacktrace (annoyingly, neither of which I can copy/paste, since the buffers disappear on action):

reefersleep08:03:09

I tried reinstalling Spacemacs, updating Spacemacs and updating packages, but it makes no difference.

reefersleep08:03:30

My emacs/spacemacs versions are: (emacs-24.5.1) (spacemacs-0.105.14)

reefersleep08:03:08

my leiningen version is Leiningen 2.6.1 on Java 1.8.0_65 Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM

reefersleep08:03:59

I'm on Windows

reefersleep08:03:59

I've tried with a ~/.lein/profiles.clj containing the following:

reefersleep08:03:03

And right now, it is simply {:repl {:plugins [ ] :dependencies [ ]}}

reefersleep08:03:48

So I'm at my wit's end. lein repl works just fine, but I cannot create an nREPL with cider jack-in.

reefersleep08:03:58

Anyone have any clue on what I should do? simple_smile

alandipert12:03:27

@reefersleep: can you paste the whole stacktrace?

reefersleep12:03:01

@alandipert: Nope - whenever I click or perform any keystroke, the buffer with the stacktrace disappears 😕

alandipert12:03:41

hm, you may try #C0617A8PQ

reefersleep12:03:53

I've posted the same there simple_smile

reefersleep13:03:55

I followed the advice in the Troubleshooting part of the Cider README and activated toggle-debug-on-error, and managed to catch something meaningful could not start nrepl server: clojure.lang.Compiler$CompilerException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: Could not locate mranderson047/toolsnamespace/v03v0_alpha3/clojure/tools/namespace/parse__init.class or mranderson047/toolsnamespace/v0v3v0_alpha3/clojure/tools/namespace/parse.clj on classpath: , compiling:(refactor_nrepl/core.clj:1:1) It doesn't help me in a google search, but I think I saw some trouble with mranderson mentioned somewhere. Does anyone recognise this?

reefersleep13:03:32

The "Troubleshooting" section also mentions looking in the Messages buffer or the nrepl-messages buffer. I can't find these. Does anyone know how to reach them?

Chris O’Donnell14:03:25

@reefersleep: in spacemacs you can get to messages by SPC + b + b and selecting Messages

reefersleep14:03:02

That's great, @codonnell , thanks. This allows me to copy/paste the full stacktrace simple_smile

reefersleep14:03:28

Not that it's any more interesting, from what I can tell

reefersleep14:03:33

But great to know!

felixflores16:03:58

can anyone point me to a resource to learn the key bindings for manipulating the parens on my code. I’m coming from vim and paredit. I’m trying to learn to use smartparen but I’m finding it harder to use in comparison to vim + paredit

reefersleep18:03:58

@felixflores: I never got around to trying paredit before I moved to Spacemacs, and like you, I'm confused about the paredit-like options in Emacs.

reefersleep18:03:26

I tried using the lisp-mode stuff (I guess that's not smartparen?), but never got used to it.

reefersleep18:03:18

as in, SPC k (and another key in that layer)

reefersleep18:03:05

I find it confusing because it puts me in a different mode than Normal and Insert. There's a limit to how much I can keep in my head simple_smile

reefersleep18:03:19

There is an issue about adding Lispy, which (apparently) is paredit-like, as a layer or package to Spacemacs

reefersleep18:03:29

I don't know how resolved it is, haven't read the whole thing through.

reefersleep18:03:29

From what I can gather, it's still underway.

reefersleep18:03:43

@felixflores: from what you know about paredit, would you say that lispy looks equivalent? And - is paredit good? If so, I think I'll hold out for Lispy in Spacemacs and spend my brainpower on other stuff than learning Emacsy parens editor modes/commands simple_smile

reefersleep18:03:27

@alandipert: I solved the problem. And it was really, really stupid. I, myself, have found a bug in Leiningen for Windows, reported it and submitted a pull request that leaves comments in lein.bat and README.md warning that you should not have a LEIN_JAR environment variable as well as a different reference for Leiningen on PATH, as this might mess things up. And here I am, with a LEIN_JAR environment variable still set. Guess I didn't clean up after experimenting while sorting out the Leiningen issue with HyPiRiOn. Removed the LEIN_JAR, and now everything is good. Damn!
