Coc-lua break with new language server

[Maswor]

When prompted for updating new version of lua language server, I processed and get the following errors:

[coc.nvim] [14:13:56.486][error][#0:script/library.lua:233]: script/library.lua:197: attempt to call a nil value (field 'get')
[coc.nvim] Server lua failed to start: Error: [14:13:56.486][error][#0:script/library.lua:233]: script/library.lua:197: attempt to call a nil value (field 'get')

cos-lua: 1.0.1
neovim: 0.5 stable

Thank you and best regards!

The same is happening with me.

Same here. Installed neovim 0.5, was prompted to run CocCommand lua.update. That failed. I uninstalled and resinstalled coc-lua and get the following:

[coc.nvim] [21:17:06.230][error][#0:script\library.lua:233]: script\library.lua:197: attempt to call a nil value (field 'get')

I've got the same problem. As a workaround I did the following: first, I did a rm -rf sumneko-lua-ls in ~/.config/coc/extensions/coc-lua-data/, next I downloaded an previous version (2.0.5 in my case) from https://github.com/josa42/coc-lua-binaries/releases, then extracted it, and finally renamed it as sumneko-lua-ls. See #65 for clarification.
I hope this helps.

This worked perfectly. Thank you!

Note for Windows users, the path to the coc-lua-data dir is slightly different. You'll probably find the directory here: ~\AppData\Local\coc\extensions\coc-lua-data.

Yep, this is actually a duplicate of #65. coc-lua just doesn't update coc-lua-binaries, if you scrap it and its coc-lua-data directory, it works fine.

Same problem here!

There's 5 issues currently open, 4 of them are about this update thing.

I highly recommend coc-sumneko-lua over coc-lua, which currently is not being actively maintained.
