Problem description

I'm using nvim v0.10.1 on Windows 11 Pro x64. I've got mason installed along with mason-lspconfig and other plugins to enable LSPs for the languages I daily use. Most of them work just fine. But every time I open up mason with :Mason and try to install the awk-language-server, I end up with the following error showing up on the mason floating window.

◍ awk-language-server
▶ # [97/97] spawn: npm.cmd failed with exit code 1 and signal 0.

If I check the mason logs using :MasonLog, here's all I see:

[INFO 10/10/2024 22:01:02] ...m-data/lazy/mason.nvim/lua/mason-core/installer/init.lua:184: Executing installer for Package(name=awk-language-server) {} [ERROR 10/10/2024 22:01:09] ...m-data/lazy/mason.nvim/lua/mason-core/installer/init.lua:249: Installation failed for Package(name=awk-language-server) error=spawn: npm.cmd failed with exit code 1 and signal 0.
I don't know how to fix this. Any ideas?

Expected behavior

I expect the awk-language-server LSP to be installed just like html, lua, pyright, and so many other LSPs did just fine.

Steps to reproduce

1. Issue the :Mason command to open the plugin UI.
2. Move the cursor down to the awk-language-server line and hit the 'I' key to install.

Oh, and I meant to add but forgot that I can easily install the awk-language-server using npm at the command line either globally or normally without an error.

[JohnWilliston]

I suppose I should also add that Mason refuses to recognize the awk-language-server even when I've installed it manually. It keeps insisting it's not installed. I have subsequently learned that I could manually install it with the very command that Mason says fails for some unknown reason, then add just a bit of config to my nvim-lspconfig setup.
