Hi,
on a Linux 2.6.16.1 system I have installed zsh 4.3.2.
I got problems with the zsh history, which is neither read nor
written.
I read the thread previously appearing in this list and tried to
understand and check, what was said.
1.) Shell must be interactive:
When given
setopt
on the command line I got
interactive
monitor
shinstdin
zle
therefore I think the shell is interactive.
On the other hand, the manpage stated, that (beside other things)
/etc/zshrc is read. That is not the case.
2.) File could not be locked.
How should I check this ?
3.) $HOME/.zsh_history is corrupted.
I emptied that file....no effect.
4.) File permissions wrong.
$HOME/.zsh_history is rw be myself only.
5.) HISTSIZE is "0" or not set.
echo $HISTSIZE gives me: 9999
6.) SAVEHIST not set or "0":
echo $SAVEHIST gives me: 9999
I have no idea what I wrong with my settings.
What must be set to get the history stored and read ?
Thank you very much in advance for any helpful reply ! :)
Keep zshing!
