Which OS do you use? Debian Testing
Which version of GHC do you use and how did you install it? 9.2.4 with ghcup (reinstalled)
How is your project built (alternative: link to the project)? Cabal (https://github.com/MaybeJustJames/zephyr)

Which LSP client (editor/plugin) do you use? Emacs+lsp-mode
Which version of HLS do you use and how did you install it? 1.8.0.0 from ghcup
Have you configured HLS in any way (especially: a hie.yaml file)? No

Steps to reproduce

run haskell-language-server-wrapper -d --lsp

Expected behaviour

Should start lsp server and not produce errors

Actual behaviour

Says GHC ABIs don't match! and quits.

Can confirm, I got this too just today trying to make a PR for the stack code base. (which uses nightly-2022-09-05 => 9.2.4)

[NSchweers]

I have the same problem, also using ghcup. I’m not using stack btw.

[chris-martin]

Same problem, with a cabal cradle, on NixOS.

[chris-martin]

The problem in my case seems to have resulted from my Nix configuration: I was getting GHC from nixos-22.05 and haskell-language-server from nixos-unstable.

[NSchweers]

Building from source via ghcup compile ... solved the problem for me.

[hallettj]

I have the same problem. I'm also on Debian testing with these tool versions:

cabal:          3.8.1.0
stack:          2.9.1
ghc:            9.2.4

Edit: I have been informed that I can build using source from git instead of from hackage using this variation of the compile command which does work for me:

$ ghcup compile hls -g 1.8.0.0 --ghc 9.2.4

I'm not able to compile hls myself due to this error which I have no idea how to resolve:

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling tools through ghcup in different orders, deleting ~/.cabal and ~/.stack and running cabal update fresh.

I have not tried different ghc versions because the project I am working on requires 9.2.4.

Does anyone know how to get a haskell-language-server from Nix for a given compiler? Our project's stack.yaml / snapshot.yaml specify ghc-9.2.4 and lts-20.1 just fine but getting an HLS binary to match has proven tricky and is causing Haskell support in VS Code to crash.

Also, #1926 (comment) may be relevant.

I've hit the same error as OP with HLS 1.9.1.0 since upgrading to GHC 9.4.4, with everything being installed via GHCUp. What's very odd is that the failure seems to depend on which HLS is set as the default, rather than which one is actually used:

• With ghcup set hls 1.9.1.0, both haskell-language-server-wrapper-1.9.0.0 and haskell-language-server-wrapper-1.9.1.0 exhibit the GHC ABIs don't match! issue.
• However, with ghcup set hls 1.9.0.0, both commands work.

I'm on Manjaro Linux, which uses the Fedora GHC binaries.

@hasufell Since this seems like it could be a GHCUp distribution issue, any ideas?

Thanks! Good to see that the problem is known and understood (even if it doesn't explain most earlier comments in this thread).
