User operation is waiting

[Jayapandian Ponraj]

After enabling all the "stylistic problems", whenever i save a file in pupet I get a dialog box saying "User operation is waiting, user operation is waiting for building puppet project to complete"

Also in the bottom right of geppeto I see the project is building always and there is always some task going on in the progress tab, Is this normal?

That does not sound normal. Which version are you using? Is this the
packaged geppetto, or geppetto plugged into an Eclipse?

I would first try a build clean and waiting until that build stops.
I would also try restarting geppetto.

If problem continues. I would try closing half of the projects, and
continue closing projects until it works as expected. Then continue
bisekting the projects until I found one that is taking a very long
(possibly infinite) time to build.

We have had issues with the formatter in older versions where it could
go off in a loop. Do you have format on save turned on?

Do note that if you have a very large number of projects (hundreds of
modules) and code it can take a while to build everything (minutes).

Are you using some kind of remote file system?

Hope that helps in pinpointing your problem.

The issue was with Version: 4.3.0 Build: R201409300140. I started using 4.3.1 and the issue vanished

packeaged geppetto

Even after doing everything as above the project builds indefinitely

Yeah the issue became noticeable after turning on formatter, forgot to mention in the original mail

I have a single puppet project with around 6 puppet module projects inside it.

no
