Bug ID: 419834 Summary: Python LSP does not start on Windows 10 Product: kate Version: 19.12.2 Platform: MS Windows OS: MS Windows Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: application Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: d...@mmassa.ro Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY When editing a Python file on Windows 10, the LSP cannot be started. The error message says that the command tha failed is python3 -m pyls --check-parent-process If you install python from the main installer on python.org, the executable name is still `python`, not `python3`. I think that the `python3` executable get create only if you get Python from the Windows Store. I have seen a mention in bug#419028 that another used was having problems with LSP and the Python server, although is not clear to me whether the problem is really the same or not. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Have pyls installed on your system (my case was `pip install python-language-server[all]`) 2. Open a python file with Kate. OBSERVED RESULT LSP does not start, failure message is (translated to english) Cannot start server: python3 -m pyls --check-parent-process EXPECTED RESULT LSP should work SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: 10 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
