editor error: Async job failed: protocol error: ServerError(-32801): content modified

[Tudyx]

Summary

When I go in insert mode in certain file (not all) and start typing, I got a lot of editor error: Async job failed: protocol error: ServerError(-32801): content modified

I remarked, if I tape slowly, letter by letter, I don't have those errors.

Reproduction Steps

I try to reproduce the bug in a toy project but without success. I hope the trace will be sufficient. Feel free to close this issue if not actionable.

this seems like a RA crash, I doubt this is actionable from our side. We would at least need a reproducable example. The logs are also incomplete (don't even contain the servers initialization) so without more details I can only tell you that RA cashed somehow but notanything beyond that.

I think this is related kakoune-lsp/kakoune-lsp#285 and infact that error code should not be displayed to the user. For me, it comes up on the main hx UI. Logs are likely ok, but I suggest bringing this back to an issue to triage it.

See also microsoft/language-server-protocol#584 (comment)

I'm also facing the same issue. Did you get a fix for it? @Tudyx

[Tudyx]

This was the inlay hint request that took to much time so I set a bigger timer for it in my config

[editor]
# Increase timeout on LSP request as inlay hints can take quite some times (default 250).
idle-timeout = 800

[farahfinn]

Thanks. I'll try that
