Hi, I opened an org file using tramp on a remote server. It opened fine,
and I had no trouble writing text and saving it. For fun I tried running
a src block (a shell block that just returned the hostname), and got
this error:
>%s'...failed
tramp-file-name-handler: Couldn't write region to
`/scp:jkitchin@gilgamesh.cheme.cmu.edu:/var/folders/5q/lllv2yf95hg_n6h6kjttbmdw0000gn/T/ob-input-30024dza',
decode using `base64 -d -i >%s' failed
Should this have worked? It looks like it tried to write a local path
from my Mac to the server, and that path doesn't exist there.
Some details (not sure they are relevant):
I am running Emacs on a Mac, and opened a file on a remote Centos5
server.
Thanks!

This works for me from my mac on a remote Centos system.
I think this tripped me up in the past, but my notes do not reveal the fix
I used.
I think this is a temporary-file-directory issue, but nothing in my init
pertains to that variable or tramp.
In my emacs-init.org, I do have
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq default-directory "/Users/cberry/")
#+END_SRC
and I see a lot of references to this in tramp-compat.el. So, maybe
setting it is enough to get emacs and/or tramp to use my local client for
temp files.
In *Messages* I see this after running the src block:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Evaluate this shell code block on your system? (y or n) y
executing Shell code block...
Tramp: Encoding local file `/var/folders/kb/2hchpbyj7lb6z76l0q73w_fh0000gn/T/tramp.560h4h' using `base64-encode-region'...done
Tramp: Decoding remote file `/scp:<me at remote host>:/tmp/ob-input-560Uub' using `base64 -d -i >%s'...done
Tramp: Encoding local file `/var/folders/kb/2hchpbyj7lb6z76l0q73w_fh0000gn/T/tramp.5607Mu' using `base64-encode-region'...done

...<and more cycles like that>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
and when I issue `C-h v temporary-file-directory RET' in the buffer of the remote file,
I get the same `/var/folders/...' which is what `echo $TMPDIR' shows locally.
HTH,
Chuck

Howard Abrams has written an extensive answer to this problem in his
blog [1]. The problem is that the Mac uses a different folder for
temporary files. Howard also proposes a fix and refers to a mailing list
message regarding the bug [2].
Hope this helps,
Martin

I tried this as I have the same error messages as the John and opened a
flie in tramp afterwards. (I did set the variable in a running emacs
session and did not restart).

`----
So there is still a reference to an remote directory.
and I still get the error:
,----
| /bin/sh: 1: /scp:pogoplug:/tmp/sh-script-81150VZO: not found

Here I have:
,----
| Its value is "/var/folders/50/wcr5bjwn75q595n6x82gxj280000gn/T/"
`----
Also on Mac, remote is Debian.

I think it would be nice if one could find a fix for this in org.

Wow... Mind---( ( blown...
(___(
I just did this
(setq temporary-file-directory "/tmp")
opened a file using tramp on a remote server, and ran code on the
server, with the output showing in my local emacs from the remote
server!!!
Simple stuff works. It seems to run shell and python fine, although it
doesn't load my bashrc file, so some things don't seem to work right that
require that. Still, pretty awesome it worked at all!
Thanks for the tip about the temp directory!
