1.3.x - phpmd: No such phpmd executable: phpmd

[zmni]

Works fine on version 1.2.x, but shortly after update to above version, vscode no longer detect phpmd. Global path configure properly, on default setting, hardcode setting to absolute path, I try everything, nothing works.

Output from Developer Tools:

I tried to disable phpmd through settings.json, but it still displaying an error.

Thx reply. Very helpful. I will check it again.

To verify if phpmd is available this plugin tries to run it, so, even if the path is correctly set, if phpmd is unable to run (e.g. missing dependencies for PHP) the message will wrongly say that the exec could not be found. Try to manually run phpmd and check the output.
