Indexing fails because project path can't be found

[TitanNano]

When I do a reindex the php server returns

{
    "code": -32001, 
    "message": "The specified file or directory \"~/zmb/zmbCORE/Code/zmbCORE\" does not exist!"
}

but this is my project directory. I'm working in this directory. It does exist.

Does the project path in your projects.cson file contain the tilde as well? I'm not sure PHP can properly deal with it, I recall someone else attempting to use it in the past.

Perhaps I should try to resolve it before it is passed to the server via Atom, can you do a quick test to confirm that this is in fact the issue?

@Gert-dev yes, changing the project path to an absolute path works fine. The relative path seems to give PHP trouble.

It is strange, though, I would kind of expect that to work, but perhaps the functions called by PHP itself are lower-level than the code that resolves the tilde to the user's home folder. I'll see if I can resolve the path on the CoffeeScript side.

it worked before. It only broke with one of the last updates, but I don't remember which one.

For anyone watching this issue: thanks to Sam Feyaerts this will be fixed in one of the following releases (likely core 3.1)!
