Are you on native installer? There are some issues with search we're working to resolve
@ant-kurt yes, native installer.
yeah, native installer
Should be resolved in
1.0.70for Windows native buildThx!<3
@ant-kurt This is not resolved for me. Still issue. I am using native install on windows running wsl2 to run Claude code. On 1.0.72 and still an issue.
@GitMurf running Claude Code on WSL runs our Linux build. Can you open a new issue with the following details?
claude --debug, do you see any logs containing "rg spawn" or "rg error"?@ant-kurt I figured out a solution! It is like others have mentioned, an issue with ripgrep custom config, but the problem I had was NOT fixed by the typical
USE_BUILTIN_RIPGREPenv settings that others have mentioned. Instead I had to set theRIPGREP_CONFIG_PATHto a "dummy" value so it didn't try to load any custom rg config.I documented the full details / solution here: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/4741#issuecomment-3177976916
As for your questions, it was not based on any particular rg config option as I tried just a simple single
--ignoreas the only thing in my.ripgreprcand it still created the issues in Claude Code. I tried several simple just single settings like--smart-caseetc. and they all failed. The only thing that worked for me was setting the config path to a dummy value so CC didn't try to load a custom config at all.I would be happy to troubleshoot further to try and get to the bottom of the root cause if you want to ask some follow-up questions? Thanks!
