Client: Error reading from channel: Socket error: disconnected / Server: [tmate] FATAL Received a bad message

[snadal]

Hello,

I'm setting up an internal tmate-slave server, but when running tmate, I got this message on the client

Error reading from channel: Socket error: disconnected

And this one on the server

[tmate] FATAL Received a bad message

I am attaching both server and client logs

tmate-client-3649.txt
tmate-server-3651.txt

Any hints ?

FYI, I tried using PPA build on Ubuntu 14.04 and 15.10 and tmate-slave is running on docker, built from sources. I could not build client from source as I needed to install latest msgpack, I'm not sure it this will help.

Thank you !

make sure you are running the latest tmate-slave server version from the git repo, and you should be good

Thank you for your answer !

It seems I am already running 2.2.1

Do you think building from source will fix it ?

[nviennot]

I was referring to the internal tmate-slave server you are running, not the tmate binary

[snadal]

Ops, you're right :)

On Ubuntu 15.10 after compiling msgpack from source and install libssh 0.7 (ppa:kedazo/libssh-0.7.x), everything ran fine.

Thank you !

awesome!
