Dash Plugin Error with Velocity

See original GitHub issue

I installed the 3.2.2 version of the plugin in PyCharm 4.0.4 (Windows 8.1 x64), no issues or errors. When I try to “Search in Velocity” I get the following error:

Dash Plugin Error
           Failed to open dash-plugin://keys=python3,python,django,twisted,sphinx,flask,tornado,sqlalchemy,numpy,scipy,salt,cvp&query=getLogger. Error message: A device attached to the system is not functioning.

I have Velocity 1.0.5 installed (licensed). I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling Velocity and also removing and adding the Dash plugin again. Both didn’t work. I’m not sure what else to try.

The author sent me two registry files to run:

dash-plugin

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dash-plugin]
@="Velocity Search (Dash Plugin Protocol)"
"URL Protocol"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dash-plugin\DefaultIcon]
@="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Silverlake Software LLC\\Velocity\\Velocity.exe,1"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dash-plugin\shell]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dash-plugin\shell\open]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dash-plugin\shell\open\command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Silverlake Software LLC\\Velocity\\Velocity.exe\" -url \"%1\""

Save these to .reg files and run them. These worked for me.

As far as I know Velocity does what it should according to the Windows guidelines. In the handful of cases where I got more information Zeal was installed prior to Velocity. If someone has had this problem under different circumstances, please let me know because then I’m missing something!

I will look into if there is more I can do for detecting and correcting this.
