[ISSUE]: Cannot find path for sumneko lsp binary about nii-nvim HOT 6 CLOSED

I have a somewhat similar thing, Spawning language server with cmd: /home/user/.local/share/nvim/lsp servers/lua-language-server/bin/Linux/lua-language-server failed.
Tho i reinstalled a lot of times, i followed the build instructions for sumneko lua language server. The directory 'Linux' does not exist

from nii-nvim.

yea, This seems to be an "issue" introduced my the sumneko maintainers. I currently have a fix on my local machine that you can apply. Expect that #25 should fix this issue as well.

Heres the patch:

you can create a patch file in the root of the repo/config directory, and apply it with the git apply cmd

from nii-nvim.

I have pushed my fixes to #25, (75d8f52) expect this it be merged into master in time soon.

For now if you want the bleeding changes, clone/pull/checkout from the dev branch.

I've been experimenting with a lot of different nvim builds, and ended up breaking everything, i'll reinstall fully rn and then i'll answer how it went

from nii-nvim.

Ok, now i don't see this error, also there was a thing which told that something was moved (sorry i forgot what it was) but on the dev branch everything was fixed, awesome!
Also, i'm weebspirit, u might remember me on discord but i deleted my acc, and soon i will selfhost my own matrix homeserver, i'll message u then.
