All commands fail

[klingtnet]

All of the commands fail with a message similar to:

Command 'SpellRight: Select Dictionary (Language)' resulted in an error (Running the contributed command: 'spellright.selectDictionary' failed.)

I am using this extension version

Name: Spell Right
Id: ban.spellright
Description: Multilingual, Offline and Lightweight Spellchecker
Version: 3.0.50

with the OSS build of VS code

The extension configuration folder looks fine to me:

$ ls -al ~/.config/Code\ -\ OSS/Dictionaries/

Update Error messages from the developer console of VS code did not contain any additional information.

This is very strange. I have reviewed issues related to OSS and it seemed to be working ok recently. There is no any additional information in Output/Debug console etc?

[klingtnet]

Thank you for the quick reply! Unfortunately, all I can provide is this:

[bartosz-antosik]

I suspect (and looking through the issues searching for OSS reminds me this) things are located different in OSS. This caused problems of which some have been cured in the past. I do not have OSS around ant thus I am not sure what to do.

P.S. You ahve checked that dic/aff files are UTF-8 (it is describer in the README If I remember correctly)?

[klingtnet]

Yes, they're:

$ file ~/.config/Code\ -\ OSS/Dictionaries/en_US-large.*
/home/alinz/.config/Code - OSS/Dictionaries/en_US-large.aff: UTF-8 Unicode text
/home/alinz/.config/Code - OSS/Dictionaries/en_US-large.dic: UTF-8 Unicode text

I will check what happens if I create a symlink from ~/.config/Code\ -\ OSS to ~/.config/Code. Update Then I can select a language, so the path, or likely the spaces in it, are the causing the issue.

I have the same issue.

Worked for me. I use Arch Linux too and default code package provides OSS version that use Code - OSS folder.

I am facing the same issue with VS Code 1.48.* on Windows 10 (64 bit), connected inside my Windows Subsystem for Linux WSL running Ubuntu 20.04. As described, any spellright.X command results in a popup with command 'spellright.X' not found, e.g.

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

I followed the readme and created symlinks to hunspell dictionaries inside WSL to /.config/Code/Dictionaries (and made sure at least hunspell-en-us and -gb are installed). Setting global.SPELLRIGHT_DEBUG_OUTPUT to true appears to makes no difference. Spell Right version is 3.0.52.

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 works fine when working 'natively' in Windows (i.e. when not connected into WSL).

Problem persists with the recently released v3.0.56 in VS Code 1.52.1 on Windows 10 20H2 for connections into WSL2.
