I have an issue with ElixirLS in Nvim. This started after upgrading oh_my_zsh and asdf (macos + homebrew). It seems that asdf plugin for omz is out of date. In any case - everything works correctly when running as cli commands. But in nvim, this started to happen:

LSP[elixirls] Unable to find formatter for /Users/xx/project/lib/project_web/endpoint.ex: "** (M

What I did try:

• “asdf reshim”, etc.
• reinstalling asdf and reinstalling plugins
• updating plugins in Nvim (using Lazy)
• after removing “asdf” plugin from oh my zsh, added paths to asdf manually (which is why everything works outside of nvim):

# this before omz compinit
fpath=(${ASDF_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.asdf}/completions $fpath)
autoload -Uz compinit && compinit
# and this as last entry
export PATH="${ASDF_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.asdf}/shims:$PATH"

Of course all the projects (this happens universally on any elixir project) have the correct .formatter.exs:

[
  import_deps: [:phoenix],
  plugins: [Phoenix.LiveView.HTMLFormatter],
  inputs: ["*.{heex,ex,exs}", "{config,lib,test}/**/*.{heex,ex,exs}"]
]

Luckily, syntax errors and highlighting still works inside the editor - it only the pre-buf-write formatter that fails. There is no specific LSP config in nvim - just defaults:

      ...
      local servers = {
        ...
        elixirls = {},
        ...
      }
      ...

Just for reference, the versions:

❯ asdf list
elixir
 *1.18.1-otp-27
erlang
 *27.2
  27.2.2

I would highly appreciate if somebody could point me in the right direction. This is not an Elixir error per-se, but elixirls/nvim combination, and is for sure something very trivial - but as all of us know, the “a critical tool suddenly stops working” issues while working on a project with tight deadline are the most frustrating.
