bug: Can not use the SSH autocompletion due to socket issues in /tmp folder on the remote Ubuntu Machine

[EmranMR]

Checks

• [X] I have searched github.com/withfig/fig/issues and there are no duplicates of my issue
• [X] I have run fig doctor in the affected terminal session
• [X] I have run fig restart and replicated the issue again

Operating system

Ubuntu 22 and MacOS

Expected behaviour

I should be able to install ssh integration on macOS and remote Ubuntu and be able to receive autocompletion

Actual behaviour

I do not get autocompletion, the fig doctor outputs an error that there are no socket. I digged in to the log files and apparently it is a permission issue I do not know how to fix.

Doctor on sshed remote Machine

✘ Figterm: Tried to find the socket file, but it wasn't there.

  Fig uses the /tmp directory for sockets.
  Did you delete files in /tmp? The OS will clear it automatically.
  Try making a new tab or window in your terminal, then run `fig doctor` again.
  No file at path: "/var/tmp/fig/xxx/figterm/f2cca691-d4b8-4b86-97e9-318e9bcf90ee.socket"


✘ Doctor found errors. Please fix them and try again.

• I uninstalled and installed fig (local and remote)
• I logged in and out (local and remote)
• I have deleted all dot files and .fig and fig folder in the tmp still persists (both local and remote)
• When I Uninstall I get the following error for the remote machine (xxx is the username on the server)

runuser: user xxx xxx xxx root does not exist or the user entry does not contain all the required fields
runuser: user xxx xxx xxx root does not exist or the user entry does not contain all the required fields
error: Failed to uninstall properly

output from /tmp/fig/xxx/logs/figterm_dev_pts_13.log (remote machine)

2024-02-07T19:57:27.562437Z ERROR figterm::ipc: 162: Failed to create figterm socket directory err=Permission denied (os error 13)
2024-02-07T19:57:27.562530Z ERROR figterm::ipc: 168: Failed to set permissions on sockets directory err=Operation not permitted (os error 1)

Note that I can see MANY sockets when I ls inside my /var/tmp so not sure what is going on

Steps to reproduce

To reproduce simply follow instructions in the manual for ssh integration Once done run fig doctor and you get an error.

I would check that the the environment value of FIG_SET_PARENT on the macOS side matches the value of the env var FIG_PARENT on the Linux side. If these don't match up then the app will not be able to connect to the correct socket.

It also looks like the Linux CLI version is a few versions behind, would try to update that.

@grant0417 Thanks for the reply, I uninstalled and installed again, following the documentations from your website. I am still getting the version 2.15.0 on my ubuntu.. Is there a way to force and install a specific version in this case 2.17.1

I also double checked the diagnostics after reinstalling the Fig Integration. As you noted, the FIG_SET_PARENT and FIG_PARENT are still not matching.... Can I manually change my remote to match the local machine?

I also get the following error whenever I install the integration on the remote machine. I dont think this has any significance but I just thought to share with you.

Thanks Emran :)
