5 Spell Check in Geany Windows version not working - ID: 3022463
Last Update: Comment added ( heinrichmeyer )

Sorry. At first I placed this message on another thread before noticing the thread was closed. So here it is again.

Whenever I start Geany, a pop-up error message says:
==============================================================
"The enchant library couldn't be initialized (unknown error (maybe the
chosen language is not available))."
==============================================================

My system is Windows 7 Home Premium on an HP Notebook with an AMD Athlon
II Dual-Core M320 2.10 GHz with three gigs of RAM.

After Geany loads, the debug messages are:
==============================================================
11:48:23: INFO : Geany 0.19, GTK+ 2.16.6, GLib 2.20.5

Having looked through the config files, I cannot find anything which could
solve this problem. Also, I am not a computer programmer. I am just working
on one website with HTML and JavaScript. So I don't even have a clue as to
what the problem could be.

with installed libraries, i.e. from your openoffice installation it works
(files are zip archives, extract .dic and .aff files in a place for geany
). There should be a hint for this in the plugin text

Do you have installed any dictionaries?
From the posted log above, the spell check plugin looks for a "en"
dictionary.
If you don't have installed it, you should do this and then configure the
path to the dictionary files in the plugin configuration dialog.
