Hi, I am using lua 5.4, i installed the luarocks and luarocks luautf8 package, but studio code searching the following locations for .so library
Desktop/server/lua-apps/lua.lua:3118: module 'lua-utf8' not found: no field package.preload['lua-utf8'] no file '/home/konstantinos/Desktop/server/lua-apps/lua-utf8.lua' no file '/home/konstantinos/Desktop/server/lua-apps/lua-utf8.lua' no file '/home/konstantinos/Desktop/server/lua-apps/lua-utf8.so' no file '/home/konstantinos/Desktop/server/lua-apps/lua-utf8.so'
I required as docs say in my code. Any suggestion?

None of the paths mentioned there as getting searched look like anywhere luarocks may have installed anything. You need to adjust your package.cpath to include whatever system, user, or project location you installed to with LuaRocks.

U mean to add cpath to my environment variables point to luarocks packages?
