Description

Attempting to use @Search and I always receive a popup with an identical error message than this one from the developer logs: Error getting context items from search: Error: spawn /home/user/.vscode/extensions/continue.continue-0.9.197-linux-x64/out/node_modules/@vscode/ripgrep/bin/rg ENOENT c @ notificationsAlerts.ts:42

This happens with the latest release version as well as the latest pre-release version. Other context providers such as codebase are working.

The "rg" binary is at the specified path and can be executed.

To reproduce

1. Go to the chat window.
2. Type @Search.
3. Fill in the search term, e.g. "mixin"
4. Submit the chat request.
5. A popup with the described error appears.

Log output

Error getting context items from search: Error: spawn /home/user/.vscode/extensions/continue.continue-0.9.197-linux-x64/out/node_modules/@vscode/ripgrep/bin/rg ENOENT
c	@	notificationsAlerts.ts:42

Did you try out building an arm64 build? I had a similar issue and building that worked.

[bitbottrap]

I have only used the release and pre-release versions from the VSCode extension store.

[bitbottrap]

Removed .continue, removed Continue extension, reinstalled, reconfigured. Same issue. Made sure to add it do devcontainer.json and nothing.

I suspect this is because I'm using Dev Containers.

[bitbottrap]

It appears that rg is executed in the context of the container which is why there the rg executable can not be located.
