System.Array Not Found Error

[samueleaton]

I'm running with fsautocomplete --background-service-enabled --verbose and the logs show:

I'm on an Arm Mac, and running dotnet 7.0.100-preview.7.22377.5.

When I run the Troubleshoot Server command in Sublime Text, the server doesn't respond with any output:

We don't currently support running on 6.0.400 or the 7.0.100 previews, though there is a WIP PR [#999] that tracks adding and releasing that support.

[samueleaton]

@baronfel I downgraded to 6.0.400 and still getting the same error. Although I think the version in my project shouldn't matter, since the fsautocomplete tool has it's own version in the tool bundle, no?

[baronfel]

I would expect the same error in certain situations on 6.0.400 - as I said we don't support it fully at the moment. The FSAC tool does not bundle the SDK in any way - in fact the opposite, it relies on the version of the SDK you point it at implicitly via your global.json.

[samueleaton]

Oh sorry i misread as you support 6.0.400 not the 7.0.100 preview. My mistake. Downgraded my project global.json to 6.0.302 and it works now.

Hello, @baronfel .
Is version 0.58.2 supposed to be working with 7.0.100 sdk ? Because in my case the same error still happening.

I installed .NET SDK 6.0.302 (dotnet-sdk-6.0=6.0.302-1 from apt) but this error still happens.

Due to this error, some of following requests (semanticTokens) fail don't work, unable to retrieve check results.

This is log from ionide-vscode-fsharp:

The crash is coming from https://github.com/fsharp/FsAutoComplete/blob/d74332594a29b8bae412032a2e75a4818f7a633f/src/FsAutoComplete/LspServers/AdaptiveFSharpLspServer.fs#L810

The solution seems to be to manually provide additional arguments to fsac at startup. --state-directory $PWD/.ionide.
The directory is used to store the cache.

This works for me on linux with neovim-lsp client.

[baronfel]

Interesting - we should default to CWD for that parameter (see https://github.com/fsharp/FsAutoComplete/blob/main/src/FsAutoComplete/Parser.fs#L91-L97), does something about that cause a problem? Should we change the default for that 'state directory' to something other than the current directory?

Adaptive doesn't use the state-directory so setting that wouldn't change its behavior.

Anything related to System.Array not being found is most likely an upstream issue with proj-info.

• Here I mention it in the dotnet 7 support for proj-info
• Here I go into detail of how I found fixes for it

I might get the same error. This happens upon trying to launch it within Helix.

Full log, see line 84

The system type 'System.Array' was required but no referenced system DLL contained this type, full path: System.Array

Thanks a lot

Closing this as I haven't seen this report in a while. If you're still experiencing this after a dotnet restore -c Debug then enable a binlog for your solution
