I had to reboot my box today. I had several program running in tmux sessions. They seem to be still alive, how can I reattach to them?
I tried tmux a processID
but it didn't work.
/home/me 21$ ps aux | grep tmux
me 1299 0.0 0.0 22244 1920 ? Ss Apr28 0:40 tmux -2 -f /tmp/r-plugin-me/tmux.conf new-session -s vimrpluginme1398670569alnn51oynp1vollnn51f2v4r_ied_delta1meRalphaCalibr VIMINSTANCEID=alnn51oynp1vollnn51f2v4r_ied_delta1meRal

You can not re-attach a process id. You need to reattach the corresponding tmux
session.
So do tmux ls
. Pick whatever session you want to re-attach. Then do tmux attach -d -t <session id>
to re-attach it to a new tmux instance and release it from the old one.
