Hi Rene,  
Here are the details,  
Code:

```python
    wait until element is enabled //*[@id="kendoAutoComplete"]
    sleep 10
    input text //*[@id="kendoAutoComplete"] mc donalds, inc.
    #set selenium timeout 5 Seconds
    sleep 10
    wait until element is visible //*[@id="kendoAutoComplete-list"]/div[2]/ul
  
    select from list by value //*[@id="kendoAutoComplete-list"]/div[2]/ul/li[1] McDonalds, Inc.

```

Error:

KEYWORD SeleniumLibrary . Select From List By Value //\*[@id=“kendoAutoComplete-list”]/div[2]/ul/li[1], McDonalds, Inc.

`Select From List By Value` is not for clicking li-list items, but for selecting an element of a `Drop-Down Menu`

Try `Click Element`
