[unison-users] PATH problem on OS X High Sierra 10.13.3

[Martin Del Torre [e-mail] [unison-users]]

Sorry, to bother again!

I installed on High Sierra easily with brew.

Now I seem to have a path problem. I can manually log in via SSH and start unison.
But when I start to try unison to connect via ssh it fails with „Fatal error: Lost connection with the server“
I tried to compare the PATH like written in the Wiki troubleshooting:
- first: -> ssh ***@192.168.8.100 ‚echo $PATH‘
- then the login via ssh and then: -> echo $PATH
The two path are not identical. (see the terminal code beneath.)

I changed PermitUserEnvironment in sshd_config into „yes“ although on my system I find it only on /etc/ssh/sshd_config (I hope it is the wright one).
Nothing changed.
I don’t find the file /.ssh/environment. Actually on this system there is not even a directory ~/.ssh
Do you know where to find it?
Any suggestions what I should do about the path problem?

One more thing: on my machine (birne:~) I have El Capitan and unison version 2.48.3. On the remote machine (pomme:~) runs High Sierra unison version 2..48.4. But this should not be the problem wright?
Thanks a lot!
Martin

Now I seem to have a path problem.

The simplest way to solve this is to specify in your preference file
where unison lives. For instance, I have this in many of my profiles:

servercmd = /usr/local/bin/unison

This is fine. The important part is 2.48 (and unison would tell you if
there was an issue).

Best,
