spellright.selectDictionary not found

[jonathan-dilorenzo]

Hi,

I'm having trouble selecting a dictionary. I installed spellright in WSL with Ubuntu and tried linking hunspell dictionaries to various locations (including .config/Code, .vscode-server/, .vscode-server/data, and %APPDATA%\Code).

My vscode setup: Version: 1.43.1 (user setup) Commit: fe22a9645b44368865c0ba92e2fb881ff1afce94 Date: 2020-03-18T07:01:20.184Z Electron: 7.1.11 Chrome: 78.0.3904.130 Node.js: 12.8.1 V8: 7.8.279.23-electron.0 OS: Windows_NT x64 10.0.18363

When I toggle developer tools and try to select dictionary, I get this error:

Error Text

notificationsAlerts.ts:38 Error: command 'spellright.selectDictionary' not found at u._tryExecuteCommand (file:///C:/Program Files (/C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Microsoft%20VS%20Code/resources/app/out/vs/code/electron-browser/workbench/x86)/Microsoft VS Code/resources/app/out/vs/workbench/workbench.desktop.main.js:3416:893) at file:///C:/Program Files (/C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Microsoft%20VS%20Code/resources/app/out/vs/code/electron-browser/workbench/x86)/Microsoft VS Code/resources/app/out/vs/workbench/workbench.desktop.main.js:3416:774 at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:85) at async t (file:///C:/Program Files (/C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Microsoft%20VS%20Code/resources/app/out/vs/code/electron-browser/workbench/x86)/Microsoft VS Code/resources/app/out/vs/workbench/workbench.desktop.main.js:4370:230) onDidChangeNotification @ notificationsAlerts.ts:38 (anonymous) @ notificationsAlerts.ts:26 fire @ event.ts:587 addNotification @ notifications.ts:183 error @ notificationService.ts:57 onError @ commandsHandler.ts:356 t @ commandsHandler.ts:334 processTicksAndRejections @ internal/process/task_queues.js:85 async function (async) t @ commandsHandler.ts:325 (anonymous) @ commandsHandler.ts:345 setTimeout (async) runAction @ commandsHandler.ts:345 run @ commandsHandler.ts:303 run @ quickOpenModel.ts:576 elementSelected @ quickOpenWidget.ts:587 (anonymous) @ quickOpenWidget.ts:299 fire @ event.ts:587 fire @ event.ts:589 setSelection @ treeModel.ts:1168 setSelection @ treeImpl.ts:201 onLeftClick @ treeDefaults.ts:190 onClick @ treeDefaults.ts:172 onClick @ treeView.ts:1156 (anonymous) @ treeView.ts:550

Let me know if I can help with additional details!

Actually, this seems to happen with every commands. Let me know if the error messages of other ones would be useful.

It looks like some other people in #69 are having the same issue lately.

Adding my voice here as well. I have vscode on windows 10 with a remote to Ubuntu 18.04 on WSL 2. I installed Spell Right on WSL, and when I use the command pallet to set the languages, I get

command 'spellright.selectDictionary' not found

[Firehawke]

This is what's happening here as well. Windows 10 using WSL with Debian.

[KevCaz]

May be #354 can help.

[jonathan-dilorenzo]

Thanks KevCaz, but this was not my issue unfortunately.

[mcswell]

Same problem here, I think. I have vs code installed on a Windows machine, and I'm using it to remote in to a RH Linux machine. I installed SpellRight both on my own machine and on the remote. It works ok on files on my local machine (once I select the language).

But once I remote in to the Linux machine, it stops working; it doesn't even allow me to select a language. Specifically, the command "SpellRight: SelectDictionary (Language)" reports Command 'SpellRight: SelectDictionary (Language)' resulted in an error (command 'spellright.selectDictionary' not found) Could it be that the command fails to register? i.e. this command: vscode.commands.registerCommand('spellright.selectDictionary', this.selectDictionary, this); fails?

Likewise, all the other Spell Right commands that I try give similar errors, and it looks like they are initialized by vscode.commands.registerCommand(). So perhaps they're all failing to get registered?

VSC version 1.45.1, Spell Right 3.0.50. I have the files en_US.aff en_US.dic in the dir ~/.config/Code/Dictionaries/ on the remote, and "spellright.language": [ "en_US" ], in my settings.json file.

This extension seems broken with the new WSL implementation in Windows 10.

Having the same issue, except it's Windows 10 Remote into SSH on Linux (Ubuntu 20.04). It works locally on Windows 10. While in a remote workspace, spellright does not seem to be activated and none of the commands worked. As a test, I ran VSCode installed locally on the Linux VM (keep in mind that a remote install vscode is separate from what's installed on the os, with different configs and extensions) and Spellright worked.

Windows 10 remote SSH into Ubuntu 20.04.

I am facing the same issue with VS Code 1.48.0 on Windows 10 (64 bit), connected inside my Windows Subsystem for Linux WSL running Ubuntu 20.04. Any spellright. command results in a popup with command 'spellright.*' not found. I followed the readme and created symlinks to hunspell dictionaries inside WSL (and made sure at least hunspell-en-us and -gb are installed). Setting global.SPELLRIGHT_DEBUG_OUTPUT to true appears to makes no difference.

Below are the details from VS Code's about dialog. Electron version is 7.3.2, but in the extension's lib/bin folder inside WSL, I only see spellchecker-{deb,rpm}-{7.1.7,9.1.0}-{ia32,x64}.node binaries, but nothing explicitly for 7.3.2 (in case this matters).

Version: 1.48.0 (user setup) Commit: db40434f562994116e5b21c24015a2e40b2504e6 Date: 2020-08-13T07:50:42.600Z Electron: 7.3.2 Chrome: 78.0.3904.130 Node.js: 12.8.1 V8: 7.8.279.23-electron.0 OS: Windows_NT x64 10.0.18363

The extension seems to work fine when working 'natively' in Windows (i.e. when not connected into WSL). (Note: This seems to be related to #69.)

Did anyone find a way around it? @bwegge @ytjohn

Well, I posted a pull request (https://github.com/bartosz-antosik/vscode-spellright/pull/405) a while ago, which for me solves the issue (at least) in WSL2.

[hegerdes]

Having the same issue. But I am not using the WSL setup I'm using a DevContainer with a Debian Docker image.

VSCode does not create a .config.Code dir. It is called .config/vscode-dev-containers. I downloaded the language files to /.config/vscode-dev-containers/Dictionaries but I also get:

Command 'SpellRight: Select Dictionary (Language)' resulted in an error (command 'spellright.selectDictionary' not found)

So it may be related to this issue.

Can it be a path issue?

To recreate the error you can use my template:

# In VSCode hit F1
> Remote-Containers: Clone Repository in Container Volume
> https://github.com/hegerdes/VSCode-LaTeX-Container
# Wait for the initial pull and build
# Note: You need to have docker and vscode remote extentions installed
# Then try to set your language

[KiwiKilian]

All commands fail inside my devcontainer with "not found". When using it locally everything works on my mac. Any suggestions?

[codemedic]

426 seem to be very similar; could it be related?

I am new to VSCode; can someone help me with extension debugger mentioned in the comment. How do I do that?
