# What should I do before opening an issue?
Before opening an issue, please ensure that:
- TERM inside tmux is screen, screen-256color, tmux or tmux-256color. Check
by running echo $TERM inside tmux.
- You can reproduce the problem with the latest tmux release, or a build from
Git master.
- Your question or issue is not covered in the manual (run man tmux).
- Nobody else has opened the same issue recently.
# What should I include in an isue?
Please include the output of:
~~~bash
uname -sp && tmux -V && echo $TERM
~~~
Also include:
- Your platform (Linux, OS X, or whatever).
- A brief description of the problem with steps to reproduce.
- A minimal tmux config, if you can't reproduce without a config.
- Your terminal, and $TERM inside and outside of tmux.
- Logs from tmux (see below).
- At most one or two screenshots, if helpful.
# How do I test without a .tmux.conf?
Run a separate tmux server with -f/dev/null to skip loading .tmux.conf:
~~~bash
tmux -Ltest kill-server
tmux -Ltest -f/dev/null new
~~~
# How do I get logs from tmux?
Add -vv to tmux to create three log files in the current directory. If you can
reproduce without a configuration file:
~~~bash
tmux -Ltest kill-server
tmux -vv -Ltest -f/dev/null new
~~~
Or if you need your configuration:
~~~base
tmux kill-server
tmux -vv new
~~~
The log files are:
- tmux-server*.log: server log file.
- tmux-client*.log: client log file.
- tmux-out*.log: output log file.
To run tmux without a config and get logs, run:
~~~bash
tmux -Ltest kill-server
tmux -vv -Ltest -f/dev/null new
~~~
Then reproduce the problem, exit tmux, and attach the `tmux-server-*.log` file
from the current directory to the issue.

When reporting issues:
YOU MUST INCLUDE THE TMUX VERSION
DO NOT OPEN AN ISSUE THAT DOES NOT MENTION THE TMUX VERSION
Please also include:
- your platform (Linux, OS X, or whatever);
- a brief description of the problem with steps to reproduce;
- a minimal tmux config, if you can't reproduce without a config;
- your terminal, and $TERM inside and outside of tmux;
- logs from tmux (see below);
- at most one or two screenshots, if helpful.
This should include at least the output of:
$ uname -sp && tmux -V && echo $TERM
Please do not report bugs (crashes, incorrect behaviour) without reproducing on
a tmux built from the latest code in Git.
Note that TERM inside tmux must be a variant of screen or tmux (for example:
screen or screen-256color, tmux or tmux-256color). Please ensure this is the
case before opening an issue.
To run tmux without a config and get logs, run:
tmux -Ltest kill-server
tmux -vv -Ltest -f/dev/null new
Then reproduce the problem, exit tmux, and attach the tmux-server-*.log file
from the current directory to the issue.
