search is only searching open files

[hadisajjadi]

hi I've recently updated my code-server to the latest version and now every time I want to search in all files I get no result but if open a file that contains that I get expected result
search functionality was working just fine until I updated to the current version

Have you opened your intended working directory through the context menu or CLI before you initiate the search? We recently modified some behavior around the default working directory when the code-server is initially loaded. #1535

sorry about late response yeah i was opening it with context menu. i think now it is fixed with last update

I am experiencing the same issue, but on a version installed using conda-forge. Weirdly enough the bug does not reproduce using the standalone version.

From what I recall this can happen if ripgrep is missing. I would check the logs and see if the binary exists. I think it should be ***@***.***/ripgrep/bin/rg.

GitHub mangled the path I was trying to post. lib/vscode/node_modules/@vscode/ripgrep/bin/rg

For visibility, the above problem I mentioned is related to #5322 .
