Hi,
I'm trying to use the extension but get the error above. It appears every time I run the `Install\Update language server.

My OS is Unbuntu 18.04

Thanks in advance

If you disable the server before updating, you should avoid this. If necessary, you can kill the language server manually (lsof the file, then kill the process that has it open).

I wasn't able to reproduce this on any recent v2 version. Please do let us know if you continue experiencing this problem and in which version of the extension - we can take a look into it.

Thank you.
