I deleted the entire code-server install and re-installed and the issue persisted:

> curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh
macOS v10.15.7
Homebrew not installed.
Installing standalone release archive v3.9.3 from GitHub releases.

+ Reusing ~/.cache/code-server/code-server-3.9.3-macos-amd64.tar.gz
+ mkdir -p ~/.local/lib ~/.local/bin
+ tar -C ~/.local/lib -xzf ~/.cache/code-server/code-server-3.9.3-macos-amd64.tar.gz
+ mv -f ~/.local/lib/code-server-3.9.3-macos-amd64 ~/.local/lib/code-server-3.9.3
+ ln -fs ~/.local/lib/code-server-3.9.3/bin/code-server ~/.local/bin/code-server

Standalone release has been installed into ~/.local/lib/code-server-3.9.3
Please extend your path to use code-server:
  PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
Then you can run:
  code-server

This issue can be reproduced in VS Code: No

I found other people reporting this but its suppose to be fixed now so reporting it again: https://github.com/cdr/code-server/issues/1907 https://github.com/cdr/code-server/issues/1683

Follow up on ^:

If a prebuilt binary for ripgrep does not exist for your platform, simply install ripgrep and copy the binary into the bin folder:

cp /usr/local/bin/rg /usr/local/lib/node_modules/code-server/lib/vscode/node_modules/vscode-ripgrep/bin

At least this is how it does for the FreeBSD port for vscode: https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/editors/vscode/Makefile?id=982ce2ea27d8d41ed4f69c6c8f1eb56f04280531#n178.

I encountered this on FreeBSD -

but the workaround doesn’t work here:

root@FreeBSD-VM:/usr/local/lib/node_modules/code-server # node ./lib/vscode/node_modules/vscode-ripgrep/lib/postinstall.js
Unhandled rejection:  Promise {

I guess an issue should be opened for vscode-ripgrep though 😉
