chmod, chgrp, etc... inside dired over tramp


Using GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (sparc-sun-solaris2.9, X toolkit) 
Using tramp version 2.1.10

I'm pretty sure this worked with older versions:

Inside a dired buffer of a remote directory over tramp, using any function
on a file (like chmod (M), chgrp (G), etc) gives:

apply: Symbol's function definition is void: tramp-handle-call-process

Backtrace:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function tramp-handle-call-process)
  tramp-handle-call-process("chgrp" nil t nil "aa" "sysadm")
  apply(tramp-handle-call-process ("chgrp" nil t nil "aa" "sysadm"))
  (setq ad-return-value (apply (quote tramp-handle-call-process) (nconc ...
args)))
  (cond ((eq fnh ...) (setq ad-return-value ...)) ((eq fnh ...) (setq

tramp-handle-call-process does exist in Tramp 2.1.10. It has been
renamed to tramp-handle-process-file in Tramp 2.1.11-pre. Maybe you
have mixed Tramp versions installed/visible? Note that Tramp
2.1.11-pre is also integrated in Emacs' trunk, it could be loaded
from there ...

Could you, please, check this with "M-x list-load-path-shadows"?

Re: chmod, chgrp, etc... inside dired over tramp


Very strange things happening with my tramp/emacs combo...

1st thing: "list-load-path-shadows" seem ok (tramp 1.10, installed in
site-lisp hiding tramp bundled with emacs):

/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/site-lisp/trampver hides
/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/22.1/lisp/net/trampver

/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/site-lisp/tramp hides 
/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/22.1/lisp/net/tramp

/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/site-lisp/tramp-vc hides
/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/22.1/lisp/net/tramp-vc

/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/site-lisp/tramp-uu hides
/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/22.1/lisp/net/tramp-uu

/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/site-lisp/tramp-util hides
/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/22.1/lisp/net/tramp-util

/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/site-lisp/tramp-smb hides
/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/22.1/lisp/net/tramp-smb

/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/site-lisp/tramp-ftp hides
/opt/emacs-22.1/share/emacs/22.1/lisp/net/tramp-ftp

But, I just noticed that (require 'tramp) in my .emacs gives in *Messages*
buffer:
    Loading regexp-opt...done

Sounds like a problem with a byte-compiled file. Did you compile
Tramp's *.el files with another Emacs flavor?

Could you, please, remove all tramp*.elc files in all locations? Does
it still happen?

Which Tramp relevant settings do you have in your .emacs?

Indeed.

Best regards, Michael.

Re: chmod, chgrp, etc... inside dired over tramp


Please forget the  "Wrong type argument: listp, ê" thing, I've just fixed it
(FYI, tramp-persistency-file-name had been replaced inadvertently by a
directory)

Unfortunately,  the "Symbol's function definition is void:
tramp-handle-call-process" error is still here....

This next piece of code is from tramp-util.el extracted my local
tramp-2.1.10.tar.gz archive , there is a reference to
tramp-handle-call-process, is this normal?

  (defadvice call-process
    (around tramp-advice-call-process activate)
    "Invoke `tramp-handle-call-process' for Tramp files."
    (let ((fnh (tramp-find-foreign-file-name-handler default-directory)))
      (cond ((eq fnh 'tramp-sh-file-name-handler)
	     (setq ad-return-value
		   (apply 'tramp-handle-call-process (ad-get-args 0))))
	    ((eq fnh 'tramp-fish-file-name-handler)
	     (setq ad-return-value
		   (apply 'tramp-fish-handle-call-process (ad-get-args 0))))
	    (t ad-do-it))))
  (add-hook 'tramp-util-unload-hook
	    '(lambda () (ad-unadvise 'call-process)))

emacs-rails over Tramp

rails.el does a lot of calls that engage Tramp, even for syntax
highlighting.  The effect is that as you type, the cursor will jump to
the end of the buffer a lot, and input will be lost.  This makes the
rails mode unusable over a Tramp connection.  I tested with the latest
rails.el from SVN (svn co svn://rubyforge/var/svn/emacs-rails/trunk
emacs-rails).

I'm not sure if this is a emacs-rails problem or a Tramp problem, but it
seems to me that Tramp should just work or fail gracefully.  Has anyone
else seen this?  I'll file the bug with the emacs-rails bug tracker if
it's not a Tramp issue.

I stay corrected. The renaming happened in tramp.el before the release
of 2.1.10, and in tramp-util.el after the release. My memories are like
a sieve ...

The following patch might solve it for you until Tramp 2.1.11 is shipped:

albinus <at> arthur:~/src/tramp/lisp$ cvs diff -c -r V-2-1-10 tramp-util.el

Good point: I've improved the error message.

Best regards, Michael.
