Re: emacsclient from cygwin distro does not work with Cygwin emacs


Leo <leoslists@letterboxes.org> was heard to say:

Well, the directory does exist. Furthermore I tried it with "~/.emacsdata/server/" (tilde instead of expanded home directory) first and it doesn't work. Strange thing is it *does* work in NTemacs with the tilde: I can see, that NTemacs creates a file named "server" in the directory "~/.emacsdata/server/"" and emacsclient then finds that file.

I can confirm that Emacs does not honor server-auth-dir. I did not customize this variable or alter it otherwise. Its value is "~/.emacs.d/server/" which is apparently a hard-coded default. However, my server file is in "/tmp/emacs45021/", not in "~/.emacs.d/server/". If I quit Emacs and create "~/.emacs.d/server/" (which did not exist on my system), Emacs still does not use this directory when I start it again.


regards,
Markus
