Problem with lsqlite3
ahmedaljaali opened this issue · comments
Hello, how are you? I hope that you are doing well!
I have a problem when opening nvim, this massage pop up:
Yes, I installed it
but it seems like it's trying to search for it in "usr/lib/lua/5.1/" instead of "usr/lib/lua/5.4/"
@IZenithy you also need to install sqlite on your system, check
Already installed
sorry i read the whole thing wrong!
I am assuming you are using packer when you install this plugin. Packer does this thing where it doesn't throw an error when installing rocks fail. And for some reason it uses your system python to install the all the rocks neovim requires, which points to python not python3. So if you don't have python in your path it fails
Do this to, and try to reinstall.
local packer = require("packer")
packer.init({
luarocks = {
python_cmd = "python3", -- or add the python virtual env you created for neovim doesn't matter
},
})
add somewhere before you do the packer.startup
I have changed it, but the error is still there
Please try updating (both the plugin and its config, see README), @sagarc03's PR could potentially have fixed this if it was indeed an issue with sqlite3 itself.
I found the problem, Packer rocks don't work for some reason, so I installed it manually with this command:
sudo luarocks install --global --lua-version 5.1 lsqlite3complete
Alright! Sorry I couldn't be of help, but I'm glad you figured it out!
