Error detected while processing BufReadPost Autocommands for "*" while opening `.qmd` file

[Sami6720]

Error seen on Neovim. I am using wsl.

My setup for Quarto in init.lua

{'quarto-dev/quarto-nvim',
    dependencies = {
      'jmbuhr/otter.nvim',
      'nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter',
    },
    config = function()
      require('quarto').setup {}
    end,}

The contents of the .qmd file being opened.

# Introduction

This is a simple Quarto document that demonstrates how to use Python code within your text. You can write Markdown text and embed Python code chunks that will be executed when you render the document.

## Python Basics

Below is a simple Python code chunk that prints "Hello, World!".

```{python}
# This is a Python code chunk
print("Hello, World!")

The error seen in :messages while opening the .qmd file.

Thanks for the detailed report. Update your neovim to the latest stable version, v0.10, and the error should go away.

[Sami6720]

Thanks! Will update here if that doesn't work.

Hi @jmbuhr, I got this exact same error:

Press ENTER or type command to continue

This is my nvim version:

nvim --version
NVIM v0.10.1
Build type: RelWithDebInfo
LuaJIT 2.1.1725453128
Run "nvim -V1 -v" for more info

I'm using it through lvim.

Try configuring otter.nvim to set_filetype, which does not rely on nvim-lspconfig. See https://github.com/jmbuhr/otter.nvim?tab=readme-ov-file#configure-otter

[PCesteban]

It worked, thank you!! Why could this happen? My config is very minimal since I'm using lvim.

[jmbuhr]

Your config may be, lvim isn't ;) Looks like they roll their own lsp activation autocommands instead of using lspconfig.
