Undefined variable: SignatureMarkText

[wyne]

Just installed fresh. Whenever I try to set a mark, I get this error:

E121: Undefined variable: SignatureMarkerText
E15: Invalid expression: SignatureMarkerText
Error detected while processing function signature#sign#Refresh..signature#sign#Place..<SNR>117_RefreshLine..<SNR>117_EvaluateHL:

Hmm, this doesn't make sense. Did you put anything in your vimrc to get this working?

Can you start vim using the following command gvim -N -u <(echo 'set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/vim-signature/') -U NONE and see if you still get the error?

Can you point me to your vimrc?

[wyne]

Hm, the error doesn't happen when i use that command. Maybe some other plugin I have installed is interfering.

I'm using neovim and my config is here:

Your rc file doesn't have any Signature related stuff in it. So I can't comment on it.

The reason I say it's weird is because I don't use variables named SignatureMarkText or SignatureMarkerText.

If you can figure out if it's due to interaction with some other plugin and which plugin it is it'd be a great help

[wyne]

Oh I see. That's helpful. Sorry, I just assumed it was vim-signature. I'll take a look and report back. Thanks.

[wyne]

Oh, looks like the morhetz/gruvbox and/or mhinz/vim-signify is causing the issue. Sorry for the false alarm and hanks for the quick response!

Umm, I'm not sure how Gruvbox is at fault here. Their code looks fine. Let me dig deeper.

Can you tell me if you get the error by starting vim like this:

gvim -N -U NONE -u <(cat << VIMRC
filetype plugin indent on
set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/vim-signature
set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/gruvbox
colorscheme gruvbox
VIMRC)

[wyne]

Running like this:

nvim -N -U NONE -u <(echo '
filetype plugin indent on
set rtp+=~/.config/nvim/bundle/vim-signature
set rtp+=~/.config/nvim/bundle/gruvbox
colorscheme gruvbox')

And as soon as it open, I do ma to set a mark:

line   22:
W18: Invalid character in group name
Press ENTER or type command to continue

Can you try updating to the latest version and trying again? I put in some fixes that I think could be related to your issue.

vim-signature: 47ceaf9
gruvbox: 91bae6876031ececf151cc4f28aa5fb8c93681e4

Running with just gruvbox and vim-signature enabled, it's working fine now. Progress!

Though when I use my full vimrc, I get this error when doing ma on a new buffer:

E116: Invalid arguments for function has_key(b:sy.internal, a:lnum)
E15: Invalid expression: has_key(b:sy.internal, a:lnum)
Press ENTER or type command to continue

I'm not very familiar with how to debug these things, other than turning off other plugins.

[wyne]

Everything is working fine on existing files as opposed to new buffers, though. Not sure if that's meaningful or not.

[kshenoy]

Can you please paste the contents of your full vimrc? The previous paste did not have signature install line or any signature related settings.

[kshenoy]

Ok, I think I figured out what's wrong. Please try now.

Updated to 17809de and no errors.

Thanks so much!
