Not sure what is going on but when I go to install a package, package control is not showing up anymore. I checked my installed packages folder and Package control is in there and I even tried deleting it and then re-installing but it's still not showing up. I am running ST3 on Linux Mint 17. Any idea what may be going on?

It's 99% disabled (for some reason, I suspect a bug in PC itself). Check your ignored_packages setting in the user settings file.

@wbond, maybe it's worth adding this to the troubleshooting section at packagecontrol.io?

@chiefjester

same here, its not working on OSX, tried reinstalling package control of no avail.

Also trying to install it again I'm getting:
174110

I don't know what does that mean.

I figured out what the problem was. There seems to be some sort of bug that popped up during the most recent update so what you need to do is go into the default settings and scroll down to where it says "ignored packages" and remove Package Control from the ignored packages list. Then just restart Sublime. Hope this helps.

This fix worked for me ^
However instead of default mine appeared in user settings. removed and then restarted sublime now its running like a dime again.

This happened to me as well after removing the sublime text 3 beta version and going back to using sublime text 2. Removing it from Settings - user worked for me.

Thanks for posting the resolution to this issue @FichteFoll . It saved me from more hours of frustration!

Anyone know why this happened in the first place?

As of build 3076, Sublime Text prints the list of ignored packages on startup to help users diagnose a situation like this. Example output:

Also, there is wbond/packagecontrol.io#45 tracking the change to packagecontrol.io to tell users to check for this.

@salf This issue is closed.

Your issue seems to be that something is causing plugin_host to crash. Try https://www.sublimetext.com/docs/3/revert.html to get to a known good state and then try reinstalling packages one at a time. Be sure to save a copy of your old user folder so you do not lose any customizations.

salf commented Apr 30, 2015

Absolutely new install of ST3 without packages leads to plugin_host error and package control cannot be installed :( Something wrong with my system I guess...

@salf Did you try installing package control.Try this method and ask if you have any issues :

Same here, after a fresh install I can't install package_control:

Thanks a lot! removing Package Control from the ignored list works for me.But I am still confused about why PC is in the ignored list

@salf
Copy link

salf commented May 18, 2015

@rrevanth It was unsuccessful install of PC (manually, by copied plugin into packages folder, and using script) - silent result with nonworking plugin.
What I did: updated xcode with installation of command tools, installed all security updates, fix all errors/warnings in homebrew.

Highly required a notification part of package_control or ST3, to be absolutely sure what's wrong!

Removing "package control" from "ignored_packages" in Sublimetext > Preferences > Settings - User worked for me.

I can't imagine how the package_control could get into ignoring list?? It's a most important and useful thing in Sublime Text

For me; SublimeCodeIntel was crashing Package Control, so I ignored and then removed.

"ignored_packages":
[
	"Vintage",
    "SublimeCodeIntel"
],

Everything has gone OK.

Package control was showing up in ignored_packages. Works fine once removed from the ignored_packages

The very same bug exists in the just released Sublime Text 3.0
Going to Preferences -> Settings and removing the line containing [Package Control] in the "ignored_packages" section then restarting Sublime remedies it.

Then reinstall Package Control from https://packagecontrol.io/installation

It works to me.

It had worked straight in the past while installing on Windows, but recently tried on MacOS had this issue. Thanks to @CLaBruno. Followed it under the default user settings, and removed package control from the list and it worked.

I recently updated to ST 3147 on OS X, and now discovered this issue. In settings - user I removed the package manager from the ignored packages, and there it is again. I swear I did not add it to the ignore list by myself.

if you use Linux based system you may have to check permission table of your /home/[USER]/.config/sublime-text-3
check it all directory is own by your current USER. if not change USER for that directory.

and it will work for you.

Same issue,solved.
It was caused by other application's global key binding conflict.

I removed 3 packages: PersistentPython, BioPythonUtils and Python Open Module (New) and package control has come back.

It is horrible to see that sublime text 3 included package control in the ignored package list in the settings. I spent 2 days to fix this. I really hate the author for making this disgusting change and wasting my time.
