Strange Issue with environments (failure)
I have multiple environments, with local destinations set up in 1Password.
A/.env
B/.env
Both worked fine for a while.
For some reason since a couple of days, A/.env was not accessible, in the sense that any process trying to access it, simply hangs.
cat A/.env #hangs indefinitely
Same happens when starting docker containers that use the .env file.
It does not popup the authorization dialog at all.
I tried restarting the 1Pass app, quitting from the menubar icon, force quitting, etc. I've also tried disabling and enabling the destination, setting up a different destination, setting up an entirely new test environment, etc.
Now, as part of the testing, I noticed something else very strange.
B/.env loads up fine. In fact, when I restart 1Pass using any of the methods mentioned above, as soon as it starts, the authorization dialog shows up for the B/.env
Now, I also noticed another thing very strange:
cat A/.env #hangs
Now, as I soon as I run "cat B/.env" from another Terminal, the previously hanging "cat A/.env" returns.
I've tested this with docker containers too. If I start a docker-container that depends on A/.env, it will hang, until I do "cat B/.env" and then it will work.
Note that the authorization dialog never popped up (as far as I remember).
Not sure where to go from here. Is there some logging or something I can check to figure out what the issue is?
