running bin/dev results in an error: The terminfo database could not be found

Did some more research, and this appears to be a bug somewhere within the overmind/tmux/reline stack, which has been reported in a couple of places:

• Overmind
• Reline gem

Not sure I'd call this a "fix" per se, but the way to sidestep the issue is to edit (or create) this file (~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf) and add the line set -g default-terminal screen-256color to it. Once that is in place, I'm able to run bin/dev without it crashing.

Closing the issue here since it's not a bug directly within the Bullet Train stack and there is some kind of workaround for it.

Going to reopen this because we tie into Overmind if it’s installed and it feels like this would hurt newcomers.

There was another issue that was opened with the same, or very similar, error: #215

The reported solution there was to update a ~/.tmux.conf file. I, however, have to such file on my system. Would appreciate any help/guidance I can get.

I can attest to that, as I myself am a newcomer to Bullet Train, trying to get it up and running for the first time, and this has been a problem for me.

[andrewculver]

Fixed this for now by disabling Overmind support until DarthSim/overmind#132 is fixed.

Just ran into this problem myself, workaround by @esmale worked, just FYI if you're under the impression this doesn't happen.
