Cloud 9 terminal not in /workspace


While freeing up some space on my Cloud 9 workspace, my terminal froze and stopped responding. I restarted the workspace but that only seemed to make it worse. The last thing I remember doing was accidentally deleting the /tmp/ folder in my workspace.

The terminal does not have a spinning logo next to it, it looks like it's completely loaded but isn't in the workspace directory. Here is what the terminal looks like: https://i.sstatic.net/LZvtY.png

I have tried:

  • Using a different browser
  • Restarting the workspace
  • Restarting all terminal sessions
  • Opening a new terminal
  • Killing all processes in the process list
  • Cloning my workspace
  • Pressing Ctrl + q
  • Resetting my workspace with '?reset=1'

Other workspaces seem to function as expected with a functioning terminal.

I have made a post on the official C9 support forums and I have contact C9 support directly but I have not received a response on either platform.

If anyone has a solution to this I'd be very grateful.


Solution

  • After a response from Cloud 9, I was told I need to download my workspace files and move them to a new workspace. After doing that everything seems to work normally now.
