HTTP Error using languagetool

[AbdealiLoKo]

When one of our users (at coala) was running the tests, he got the following error:

E          
E           Traceback information is provided below:

I went through your code and found that you were actually trying multiple ports (https://github.com/myint/language-check/blob/master/language_check/__init__.py#L177) so this couldn't be an issue that he had something else running on that port.

Could you help us in figuring out why this could happen ?
And what we could do to prevent it ?

PS: Ignore the E at the front. It is from the pytest utility when running tests

I had the same issue. Just install the latest from git instead of pip and it works fine.

[aashish-amber-abz]

[sshojiro]

The issue discussed here comes to me and I also cannot solve it. Does anyone know the solution aside from the re-install?

Hi! Since this project has been abandoned, I started a new fork over at https://github.com/jxmorris12/language_tool_python.

My version supports new versions of Java and LanguageTool. language-check is stuck on Java 8 and LanguageTool 3.2; latest versions are Java 14 and LanguageTool 4.9!

I'm happy to help you with your issue if you raise it over at my repository! Thanks!

Hi! I fixed similiar issue following below steps:

1. Setup openjdk-8-jdk

• sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk
• sudo update-alternatives --set java /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java

2. Manually download file from https://languagetool.org/download/LanguageTool-3.2.zip
3. export LANGUAGE_CHECK_DOWNLOAD_HOST="file:///home/lakpa/Downloads/LanguageTool-3.2.zip"
4. pip install git+https://github.com/myint/language-check

Hope this helps.
