So I have installed iterm2 integration on a couple different machines I ssh to, and on one of them, the scp download / drag and drop upload / etc... all work fine.
On the other, the "Download with scp" entry in the right-click menu is greyed out, there is a "0 = 0x0" entry above it in the menu -- which appears to be the same as on boxes that the shell integration is not installed -- and it doesn't work.
when I type:
echo $ITERM_SHELL_INTEGRATION_INSTALLED
on the box where it isn't working, I get "Yes", and it certainly looks to be installed (looking at .bash_profile, e.g.)

I guess what I'm wondering is, is there some way to turn on debug output, to get a better idea of what isn't working correctly?  I just installed it on both machines, they're both running ubuntu 14.04, so I'm at a bit of a loss as to what is causing the difference.

Typically this is because the way we guess the hostname is failing. See this document which explains how to diagnose and fix the problem:
