Step 1: Are you in the right place?

  • I have verified there are no duplicate active or recent bugs, questions, or requests
  • I have verified that I am using the latest version of the plugin.

Step 2: Describe your environment

  • Plugin version: 12.2
  • PyCharm/IDEA version: 2020.3
  • Pylint version: 1.8.3

Step 3: Describe the problem:

Steps to reproduce:

When I start a Pylint check on the current file, I got the following error message : "Pylint Plugin: Failure: executable "/usr/bin/pylint" not found"

For information, my project interpreter is /usr/bin/python3.6 and I am not using any venv.

Observed Results:

  • When I run Pylint in command line in a terminal, it works great.

  • When I go to the plugin settings, Path to Pylint executable displays Auto-detected: /usr/bin/pylint

  • When I click on the button test, I got an error notification telling me that the executable /usr/bin/pylint is not found.

  • When I force Path to Pylint executable to /usr/bin/pylint I have the same issue.

Expected Results:

  • Pylint plugin displays the detected problems

Relevant Code:

$ which pylint
/usr/bin/pylint

same problem, any suggestions ?

Unfortunately, I have no workaround for now. Please let me know if you find something!

@MrBerthier so I've fixed it

  1. pip uninstall pylint
  2. delete folders "pylint" and "pylint-{version}.dist-info" in your virtual environment /venv/lib/python{version}/...
  3. try to pip install pylint again

Now everything works fine

Thanks!

I am facing the same problem in #89. Could you please provide some suggestions?

Same problem. The plugin simply will not recognize any pylint executable. I've ripped out and reinstalled pylint. I've tried using the local 'usr/local/bin/pylint' with no luck.

PyCharm 2022.2.3, Pylint Plugin 0.14.0
