Re: Mutt hanging on new message. [Solution enclosed!]
It's been a long, hard road, but we're here again. Recap of the problem: Mutt would work fine, except when trying to compose a new message, it would hang after entering subject. Cause of problem: set signature='~/.sig' Now, for the $1000 prize, what could be wrong with that that would cause mutt to hang the way it was? 'twas a broken pipe. But we're all better now. Thanks for the responses from the list.
Mutt hanging on new message.
So, a couple days ago, best I can figure, after a reboot, mutt now can't open temp files, or at least that's what I'm guessing, because it hangs after entering subject and hitting enter. GDB is saying it's on an open() call. It hangs indefinitely. This reboot didn't change much, I did it because apache-ssl wasn't working after a Debian upgrade, and I just upgraded again and rebooted. No kernel change, nothing weird installing. /tmp has permissions drwxrwxrwt, changing tmpdir to $HOME doesn't help, subdirectories of it don't help, nothing.. I didn't change any rc files. mutt's version is 1.4.0-2, and like I say, nothing weird changed. All the rc files hadn't changed for about 4 days before it got weird. And even that was just an unmy_hdr. I'm completely stumped, and sending this through /usr/bin/mail.
