Uncaught Error: ENOENT, open 'undefined//Users/vijay/dev/ruby/oss/XXX/project.json'

[vraravam]

[Enter steps to reproduce below:]

1. Quit and reopen atom when a project was previously open.
2. My settings will try to reopen files that were previously open while quitting.
3. But, there is no file called 'project.json' in that folder.
4. Also noticed that the preference setting for ''dataSaveFolder' (which was set to '/Users/vijay/.atom/packages/save-session/projects') keeps getting removed from the '.atom/config.cson' file and this could be the reason for the beginning value of 'undefined' when this plugin is trying to figure out the location of the 'project.json' file.
5. btw, this was working fine in atom v 0.165

I have the same problem.. After installing save-session, when open every file, atom throw ENOENT error.

[mpeterson2]

Should be fixed in 0.11.3

[victorhooi]

I just upgraded to 0.11.3, and it also seemed to blow away my last saved session =(.

[mpeterson2]

Unfortunately, there's not much you can do about that. At the moment, if something bad happens like this, and it is unable to save, it will probably break it 😢. #32 suggests creating a snapshot of the state, which would be nice to be able to prevent that.

[victorhooi]

Hmm, fair enough. Yeah, git snapshots would be neat.

If I'd know the update to 0.11.3 to fix this issue was going to break everything, I would have manually saved all my files first.

I know it's open-source, and I do appreciate your awesome work =), however, next time maybe just mention it on the relevant ticket (e.g. this one, in this case) - if you restart after this, your session won't be saved.

[mpeterson2]

Next time I'll be sure to do that. Thanks for the feedback.
