RE: how to troubleshoot tramp on windows
Many thanks Michael,
I had upgraded Tramp incorrectly -- now working thanks to your help.
(ensure that --with-lispdir and --infodir options are set correctly
when running configure)

This is fixed in Tramp's CVS already (I assume you are using Tramp
2.1.x). The "pscp" entry in `tramp-methods' must look like this:
("pscp" (tramp-login-program"plink")
(tramp-login-args (("%h") ("-l" "%u") ("-P" "%p")
("-ssh")))
(tramp-remote-sh"/bin/sh")
(tramp-copy-program "pscp")
(tramp-copy-args(("-P") ("%p") ("-scp") ("-p"
"%k")))
(tramp-copy-keep-date t)
(tramp-password-end-of-line "xy") ;see docstring for "xy"
(tramp-default-port 22))
Will be available with Tramp 2.1.14.

Re: how to troubleshoot tramp on windows
Michael -- thanks very much for the response. I actually got this working and am sorry I was so busy I did not follow up my own posting with the results. The problem seems to have been with my definition of the variable shell-prompt-pattern. Even though I kept changing it, thinking it had to be the problem, the changes never made a difference. Then I thought to exit emacs (something I don't do regularly!), thinking maybe the process which had been spawned retained the earlier value. Once I restarted (having followed the other steps outlined in the document I cited), it worked fine. Now, in emacs, I only use the following 3 lines of elisp: (require 'tramp) (setq tramp-default-method "plink") (setq shell-prompt-pattern "^.*\\$ ") and then I can use the syntax /plink:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:. (as argument, say, to dired), after which I am prompted for the password, and then I get the normal dired listing. In case it helps anyone else, I also got derailed once when I found out the variable of PATH used for cmd.exe (windows xp) was getting clobbered by some remote process. Our workstations are managed by a central group who often "push" updates, etc. to individual workstations. It took me a little while to figure out that this was happening, as well. Thanks again, for your response, and for providing such a useful package! -Paul Michael Albinus wrote: Paul Gatewood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: Hi, When I try to open a file, e.g. using the syntax: /[EMAIL PROTECTED]:.profile I get the following output in the buffer *debug tramp/plink [EMAIL PROTECTED] (sorry the output is wrapped): 1File error: [[Regexp `^///92fb9be1e1d8535b966a60c6d8167761 ?$' not found in 10 secs]] [...] 11:01:52 tramp-get-connection-property (7) # home-directory undef 11:01:52 tramp-get-connection-property (7) # process-name nil 11:01:52 tramp-get-connection-property (7) # last-cmd-time (17985 57341 55) 11:01:52 tramp-get-connection-property (7) # process-name nil 11:01:52 tramp-get-connection-property (7) # remote-echo nil 11:01:52 tramp-send-command (6) # echo are you awake This is not the complete Tramp debug buffer.

how to troubleshoot tramp on windows
I am trying to get tramp to work on windows xp, connecting to GNU/Linux
I have looked at a lot of suggestions on the web, and have tried
following the steps in
http://www.jeremyenglish.org/docs/tramp_ntmacs.pdf
but still can not get it to work.
I am using cygwin and putty.
I have generated the keys, installed the public key on the server,
set up the client, and configured emacs as described in the pdf cited.
I have set tramp-verbose to 10, and tramp-debug-buffer to t.
When I try to open a file, e.g. using the syntax:
/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:.profile
I get the following output in the buffer
*debug tramp/plink [EMAIL PROTECTED] (sorry the output is wrapped):
1File error: [[Regexp `^///92fb9be1e1d8535b966a60c6d8167761
?$' not found in 10 secs]]
(complete output below)
The normal login shell for this user is ksh.
Having found many references to problems involving the shell prompt, I
tried setting the emacs shell prompt variables to the fixed string used
as PS1 when I execute /bin/sh interactively ("sh-3.00$ ").
Those values (output from describe-variable) are as follows:
shell-prompt-pattern's value is "sh-3\\.00\\$ "
tramp-shell-prompt-pattern's value is "sh-3\\.00\\$ "
Does anyone know how I can go about finding just what the problem is,
and what to do about it?
