Title: Spell check coming back with error
Post by: bralton on August 25, 2021, 07:02:16 AM

Hi

I am using roundcube v1.4.10 and have had some reports that the spell check when composing a new email isnt working anymore.
I checked the config files and no changes have been made from the defaults, yet on emails with obvious spelling mistakes i get the error message "Empty result from spelling engine".

I swapped to plain text editor too and this then comes up as a 500 error instead.

Is there any issues currently with http://spell.roundcube.net/ ?

Thanks

The general issue of handling errors from the spell check API is addressed here https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/issues/8172

I too am seeing the same problem.  The errors seem to have started around the 18th August with the error messages

spell.roundcube.net service has beed abandoned. You should configure Roundcube to use local spellchecker.
