Hi!, I solved this problem by going on another path. Now I am using Neovim and instead of COC, I am using the LSP. I am not sure if it’s useful for you, but this was my process.

1. Install Neovim
2. Created an init.lua and just keep simple using the [kick starter](https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim), which consider the most basic stuff to use.
3. In the init.lua also I added julia for the [treesitter](https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim/blob/master/init.lua#L309) and the julials = {} for [localservers](https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim/blob/master/init.lua#L427)
4. Finally, to set up the language server protocol, you will need to create the sysimage, you can follow the instructions considering in this [discussion](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/neovim-languageserver-jl/37286/83?page=5)
5. With that should be enough, and you can consider adding other stuffs you need like vim-slime for example.

Finally, if you open a Julia file it should take a few seconds to prepare the lsp and you can start working with that.

Hope that can help you.
