Flow service doesn't start

What version of flow-bin do you use? do you have any other Flow services running (in terminal/other IDE)? Try choosing flow package rather than the executable (my/project/node_modules/flow-bin) - does it work?

Same problem here.

Same problem here.

i encountered with same problem. is there any progress ?

I found the problem: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-30020

Flow 0.60 broke IDE support. Just a few hours ago Flow 0.61 was released with an apparent fix. I'm going to try that soon.

In the meanwhile installing flow-bin@0.59 works.

I've tried flow-bin@0.61. Still having this problem.

Please try the most recent EAP (https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/WI/WebStorm+EAP)

flow-bin@0.66 still not starting flow services as described in topic

What error can you see? May be https://github.com/facebook/flow/issues/5583 issue

There is no error shown, at least it doesn't pop anywhere. My problem is when I update the version from 0.59.0 to 0.66.0 and try to `Restart all Flow servers`. It won't start and show `No servers started` on the flow tab. There was another message trying to `show all messages` but I don't recall it since i'm using 0.59.0 now, i don't want to change it to see it either

is anything shown in Console tab of Flow tool window?

Ran into the same issue; Here's how I unblocked myself when working with react and react-native:

1) update the .flowconfig to use the most recent version of flow: 

[version]
^0.66.0

2) start the flow server from the terminal itself: 

$ flow start

Back in WebStorm, under the Flow tab, I was able to hit the 'Show all errors' button and got flow showing me errors that it detected.

Good luck!

I tried what Yeo Ivan say with no luck. When i run `flow start` console says: `Wrong version of Flow. The config specifies version 0.66.0 but this is version 0.59.0`

I did update the .flowconfig and the Flow console says "Services is not started". I also checked the `node_modules` folders and 0.66.0 was there, no 0.59.0

Still getting this in WebStorm 2019.3.3 and 2020.1 EAP, on Windows 10.

Flow version is 0.119.1. "Restart all Flow servers" doesn't help. 

Edit: I was able to fix this by going into Windows Task Manager and killing all flow.exe processes. After restarting WebStorm, it now shows Flow errors as expected.

works fine for me

Please enable logging in .flowconfig:

[options]
log.file=./flowlog.txt

and provide the generated flowlog.txt

Thanks! Here are flowlog.txt and monitor logs both before the Flow server stopped working, and after I restarted it again:

Also sometimes WebStorm (2019.3.3) freezes until flow.exe is killed.

Thanks:)
