tmux: Suddenly, cannot horizontally split
- by A__A__0
As root, using a reasonably default .profile and .shrc and an empty tmux.conf, I am unable to split the window horizontally. There are a number of cases to consider so I'll list them clearly.
Using the keybinding + empty configuration: nothing happens
Using the keybinding + my configuration: a bell is generated, nothing else; occasionally, the split will appear and disappear immediately (maybe it always does this, but I'm connecting over ssh so it may not make it through)
Using tmux split-window -h with any config: tmux immediately exits
I've posted here in order the server and client verbose logs generated by tmux -v during the third case:
server started, pid 9523
socket path /tmp/tmux-0/default

There are some other peculiarities:
With a newly created user (from which I overwrote root's .profile and .shrc, tmux works perfectly.
Occasionally (twice out of the 50 or so times I've tested it), the splitting will work fine once in a session. (This happened for example when I ran ktrace on tmux, which I can also post)
To explain the 'suddenly' part of the title: when I started my newly updated mysql56-server, tmux immediately exited and lost the session.
Recently I changed architectures, from FreeBSD 10.0 i386 to amd64, and I am still working through shared library incompatibilities. I suspect that this could be involved, but I can't imagine how an incompatibility of this sort could result in such a specific, isolated failure.
