Hi @pdux

Can you reproduce this every time? I have tried this on Linux (Ubuntu) with both atom 1.23.3 and 1.29.0 by sshing to localhost (using the default .ssh/id_rsa) and I cannot make it happen?!

I will try again on my work Mac and let you know. It would help if you can confirm the above steps you made and if this happens all the time

In any case, cheers for let us know :)

Hi, yes I can confirm it still there, I can't edit remotely. I've disabled firewall also. It happened first time after ATOM update.

I am not able to reproduce this on my macbook air. It just seems to work.

What is the OS of the host you do log into?

On the mac I have another 'problem', which requires me to login using ssh to some host first. Only then will the ssh agent be available for remote-edit.

I got this error today. The situation was that the file was not in a tab, but it was shown in the open files list. The exception occurred when I clicked on the filename in the list. Cannot remember closing the file explicitly. Somehow the open file list can get out of sync with reality. Another issue is that the file list is not populated after restarting atom.
