Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Jakub Heger 2018-07-24 14:31:03 UTC

Description of problem:
If you don't use -b option with capture-pane new buffer is created and content of the pane is captured there. 

However if I want to specify buffer to capture it to and the buffer with the index doesn't exist it is not created and error is produced.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tmux-1.8-4.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
always



tmux -u -L poc_session save-buffer -b 0 output.log


Steps to Reproduce:
1. tmux -u -L poc_session new-session -d -x 80 -y 24
2. tmux -u -L poc_session capture-pane -t 0 -b 0
3.

Actual results:
no buffer 0

Expected results:
Buffer is created
