What version of Sublime Text are you using?

[rocketpants8]

I am getting this error very frequently, and it's starting to make Sublime Text nearly unusable. Any help resolving this would be very gratefully received. I've tried disabling any unused packages, but obviously something is still not happy.

Using build 4169 on Ubuntu 20.04.

error: plugin_host-3.3 has exited unexpectedly, some plugin functionality won't be available until Sublime Text has been restarted

[BenjaminSchaaf]

@robpoyntz Does it happen in safe mode?

[rocketpants8]

Seems to be OK in safe mode. I have been using it for a few hours and not noticed an issue. Switching back to the normal mode and the error appeared almost immediately.

There is nothing in particular that seems to trigger the error, although I have noticed that some file types generate the error more often than others. eg Angular HTML template files produces the error very often (eg it's often hard to write any code at all without the error occurring). TypeScript and JavaScript files the error still occurs, but less often.

How can I help in debugging this?

[deathaxe]

Syntax error messages are caused by "Markdown" and/or "MarkdownEditing" packages being disabled, which syntaxes such as SCSS rely on.

Also Microsoft's TypeScript package is problematic in ST4 as it provides cumbersome plugin functionality and overrides the more advanced core TypeScript syntax of ST4.

[rchl]

As for the Typescript package check https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript-Sublime-Plugin/issues/786

[rocketpants8]

Thanks for the responses. Have been a long-time user of ST, and wasn't aware of the Microsoft Typescript package issue.

Have removed MS Typescript package, now just using LSP + LSP-Typescript. I re-enabled the Markdown and MarkdownEditing packages. Things seemed to be much improved for a few hours, but unfortunately the error just reoccurred.

[BenjaminSchaaf]

I suggest using the "ignored_packages" setting to systematically narrow down the package causing the crash.

[rocketpants8]

I've disabled a number of packages, and have had zero crashes so far today. I'll slowly start adding them back in until I discover the culprit.

Thanks for your assistance everyone 🙇‍♂️

[sachin3593]

What version of Sublime Text are you using?

@sachin3593 Does it happen in safe mode?

[sachin3593]

@sachin3593 Does it happen in safe mode?

Yes, I tried in safe mode also

[BenjaminSchaaf]

@sachin3593 Do you have a anti-virus or other 3rd party software that may interfere? Does it still happen if you temporarily disable it?
