Failure of Lie theorem in positive characteristic

In a field of characteristic $p$, take a basis $e_0,\dots ,e_{p-1}$, and let $x{e}_j=e_{j-1}$ with indices modulo $p$, while $y{e}_j=j{e}_j$. Then $[x,y]=x$, so $kx+ky$ is a Solvable Lie algebra, but the distinct eigenvalues of $y$ force any common eigenvector to be a coordinate vector, and $x$ cyclically permutes those vectors. There is consequently no common eigenvector, even over an algebraically closed field.
