HLS does not start up if stack's docker integration is enabled.

[ProofOfKeags]

Title says it all, I cannot seem to get hls to come up if docker: enable: true is in my stack.yaml file.

Your environment

• vs code
• stack project
• docker: enable: true
• ghc-8.6.3 (hls installation derived from 8.6.4 with package overrides), I suspect this is unrelated though and could just as easily be reproduced in another version.

Thanks for reporting this, what is the log output of the startup (calling hls in the shell)? is there some error logged?

[jneira]

I guess the culprit is hie-bios, that maybe can't handle stack projects with docker enabled, see haskell/hie-bios#45
Maybe @fendor could confirm it.

Indeed, hie-bios does not support running stack in docker mode. IIRC, we concluded, that the easiest solution is to run HLS in the docker container as well.

Another workaround could be disable docker in a specific stack.yaml for hls: see https://github.com/mpickering/hie-bios#stack
