No Parser Found for 'lua' Language in Treesitter

does it happen with --clean ?

NVIM_APPNAME=somedir nvim --clean

You need to make sure Neovim can see the /usr/local/lib/nvim directory, where parsers are installed (by default). If you use a custom install, make sure you handle this location as well.

Yes, it does

Not sure how,??

I don't know how you build and install Nvim; those details are missing from your issue report. Please add them.

Done

That doesn't answer my question; these are just the standard variables. We need complete, reproducible steps.

I've just follow the instruction in README.md

• Clone the repo with gh repo clone neovim/neovim
• run sudo make install

[clason]

Then please check

1. Whether /usr/local/lib/nvim exists and contains the parsers
2. What :checkhealth says about vim.treesitter
3. What :echo &rtp says

The latter with nvim --clean, first without specifying NVIM_APPNAME.

Well, first, I want to thank you for your help. However, I opted for the nuclear route and rebuilt Neovim, which fixed the issue. I'm not sure what kind of silly mistake I made, and I'm sorry if I caused you to waste your time.
Again, thank you.
