csshx is not working in New Mac OS Release MacOS Mojave

csshx is not working in New Mac OS Release MacOS Mojave.

Getting the following errors :

$ ./csshX host1 host2 host3 host4
**** ERROR **** PerlObjCBridge:: sendObjcMessage: Can't get NSMethodSignature for message "qualifiedSpecifier"
**** ERROR **** PerlObjCBridge: error [1] sending message [NSObject qualifiedSpecifier] at /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/PerlObjCBridge.pm line 248.
$

For me the error is:

Can't call method "qualifiedSpecifier" on unblessed reference at /usr/local/bin/csshx line 524.

If I add print commands to Line 523 I get the same like you.

history -d $(($HISTCMD-1)) && clear && exec '/usr/local/bin/csshx' '--master' '--sock' '/var/tmp/tmp.0.COSUMX' '--launchpid' '64635' '--screen' '0' '--debug' '0' '--tile_y' '0' '--tile_x' '0'

[emotality]

[devros42]

Same :( anyone know of an alternative?

[bessudnov]

I set up iTerm 2
I tagged profiles and then open it with top bar menu, that i turn on “Broadcast input to all tabs”

[parera10]

You can try tmux-cssh but it's not the same.

unfortunately the original dev / project doesn't look very active anymore.

What have you gals/guys switched to using instead of csshx?

Hi, I've just hot-fixed it by cherry-picking old stuff from 2010.

just replace open_window with this and it should work.

sub open_window {
    my ($pack, @args) = @_;

    # Quote the command arguements
    my $cmd = join ' ', map { s/(["'])/\\$1/g; "'$_'" } @args;

    # don't exec if debugging so we can see errors
    $cmd = "clear && exec $cmd" unless $config->debug;

    # Hide the command from any shell history
    $cmd = 'history -d $(($HISTCMD-1)) && '.$cmd if get_shell =~ m{/(ba)?sh$};
    # TODO - (t)csh, ksh, zsh 

    my $tabobj = $terminal->doScript_in_($cmd, undef) || return;
    my $tty = $tabobj->tty->UTF8String || return;

    my $windows = $terminal->windows;
     # Quickly check if the tty even exists, since the next code is REALLY slow
    #return unless grep { $tty eq $_ } @{Foundation::perlRefFromObjectRef $windows->valueForKey_("tty")};
    for (my $n=0; $n<$windows->count; $n++) {
        my $window = $windows->objectAtIndex_($n);
        my $tabs = $window->tabs;
        for (my $m=0; $m<$tabs->count; $m++) {
            my $tab = $tabs->objectAtIndex_($m);
            if ($tab->tty && ($tab->tty->UTF8String eq $tty)) {
                my $obj = ref $pack ? $pack : $pack->SUPER::new();
                $obj->set_windowid("".$window->id);
                $obj->set_tabid($m);
                return $obj;
            }
        }
    }
}

I believe Iterm2 has this functionality built in. Haven't tried it though.

@pkovtuov Thanks for your tips/additional stuffs. When I try, I got this error :

[I] kylix3511$ sh csshX host1 host2
Can't call method "tty" on unblessed reference at ./csshX line 522.
[I] kylix3511$

Any idea ?

[zoil]

Thank you @pkovtuov
@kylix3511 make sure you're executing it from Terminal.app (not iTerm)

Thanks So much @pkovtuov @zoil @omgp0ni3s It works as expected. Thanks so much.
