142 | Start with looking at the rust-analyzer version. | ||
143 | Try **Rust Analyzer: Show RA Version** and `rust-analyzer --version` in the command line. | ||

146 | The next thing to check would be panic messages in rust-analyzer's log. | ||
147 | Log messages are printed to stderr, in VS Code you can see then in the `Output > Rust Analyzer Language Server` tab of the panel. | ||
148 | To see more logs, set `RA_LOG=info` environmental variable. | ||
149 | |||
150 | To fully capture LSP messages between the editor and the server, set `"rust-analyzer.trace.server": "verbose"` config and check | ||
151 | `Output > Rust Analyzer Language Server Trace`. | ||
152 | |||
153 | The root cause for many "`nothing works`" problems is that rust-analyzer fails to understand the project structure. | ||
154 | To debug that, first note the `rust-analyzer` section in the status bar. | ||
155 | If it has an error icon and red, that's the problem (hover will have somewhat helpful error message). | ||
156 | **Rust Analyzer: Status** prints dependency information for the current file. | ||
157 | Finally, `RA_LOG=project_model=debug` enables verbose logs during project loading. | ||
158 | |||
159 | If rust-analyzer outright crashes, try running `rust-analyzer analysis-stats /path/to/project/directory/` on the command line. | ||
160 | This command type checks the whole project in batch mode bypassing LSP machinery. | ||
161 | |||
162 | When filing issues, it is useful (but not necessary) to try to minimize examples. | ||
