LSP refuses to start

See original GitHub issue

test

When starting VS code with a .ts file open, the language server fails to start.

To Reproduce

Open VS Code
Open .ts file
The following toasts pop up:
a. Couldn't start client Deno Language Server b. A request has failed. See the output for more information.
The output is as follows:

[Error - 10:12:09 PM] Starting client failed
Launching server using command deno failed.

Expected behavior

The LSP should just run.

Versions

vscode: 1.55.2 deno: 1.9.0 (release, x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) extension: v3.3.0 & Canary v0.0.10

deno lsp runs in the vscode built-in terminal so I know that’s installed correctly.

This isn’t a fix, but does setting "deno.path": "/home/digitalkitsune/.deno/bin/deno" in your VScode resolve the issue?

We have some other reports of this (on linux) and haven’t been able to narrow down exactly why it doesn’t work, though deno is clearly available in the path. We are likely going to need to add more information to the error handling when we can’t start.
