overcast/bin/ssh: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable

[garnold]

Hey @andrewchilds, when attempting to run a command using a freshly forked clone of the Overcast repo (and adding /path/to/overcast/bin to my path), I'm receiving the following error:

overcast garnold$ overcast run all health

sux-pi-1: $ /bin/bash -s /Users/garnold/Dropbox/Development/Projects/overcast/scripts/health

When installing Overcast via NPM and issuing the same command, everything works as expected:

Any thoughts?

@andrewchilds I think I know what's going on. By adding /path/to/overcast/bin to the front of my $PATH, when Overcast invokes the /path/to/overcast/bin/ssh wrapper script, which attempts to invoke the ssh command, it is instead recursively invoking the wrapper script since it's first in the path. Let me try adding /path/to/overcast/bin after /usr/bin (but before /usr/local/bin, where the NPM-installed overcast executable is located).

@andrewchilds Yep, that worked!

What do you think about renaming the overcast/bin/ssh and overcast/bin/vagrant wrapper scripts to avoid this problem?

Moving discussion to #34 .
