Microsoft/VSCode - Cannot create a Python Interactive Window #584

RobinYookr · 2020-09-24T15:32:42Z

Hello,

Since today I am not able to create a Python Interactive Window. Whenever I try to do so, I get the message
"Connectiong to IPython kernel: Connecting to kernel." followed by "Timed out waiting to get a heartbeat from kernel process.". I have attached a log file with more information.

Logging.txt

I found the error:
"Error 2020-09-24 17:15:28: Failed to start the Daemon, StdErr: C:\Users\john van helden\Anaconda3\python.exe: can't open file '"c:/Users/john van helden/.vscode/extensions/ms-python.python-2020.9.111407/pythonFiles/pyvsc-run-isolated.py"': [Errno 22] Invalid argument"

The file is present at the specified location and the permissions of the file are good. If I click on the file, it is succesfully opened in VSCode.

System info:

Windows 10
VS Code version: 1.49.1
Anaconda Navigator 1.9.12
Python 3.7.9 64-bit ('base':conda)

Steps taken:

Remove Python extension in VSCode;
Close all VSCode instances;
Delete extension folder in ?/.vscode/extensions called ms-python.python-{version};
Open VSCode again and install Python extension;
Delete VSC entirely and reinstall;
Update all packages in Anaconda;
Install Python 3.8.5 and try again using this interpreter, same issue;

Looking forward to some help.

Thanks in advance!

@anupampydey Please could you provide the following info:

VS Code Version
Extension version
Logs

greazer · 2020-09-24T20:41:56Z

for engineering team: Consider not running python-run-isolated when starting the daemon. Also having spaces in the user name may be causing an issue.

Thanks @RobinYookr, we'll take a look.

RobinYookr · 2020-09-24T21:04:09Z

VS Code version: 1.49.1
Python extension v2020.9.111407
Logs is attached already, see the logging.txt file.

Thank you in advance!

RobinYookr · 2020-09-24T21:05:23Z

Regarding the spaces in the username of windwows: the Interactive Python windows has been working perfectly for the last 9 months. It stopped working since today, while no special activities (e.g. updates or whatsoever) have taken place.

vietbub · 2020-09-24T22:09:57Z

Please could you check and confirm the file exists.
If not, please could you uninstall the python extension & confirm the following folder has been deleted

@DonJayamanne Confirmed file existed, uninstalled Python extension and confirmed that the folder and file were removed/deleted, reinstalled the Python Extension. Same exact issue is happening

vietbub · 2020-09-24T22:12:24Z

Also want to add that vscode worked for most of the day on 9/23 PST. It only started having this problem around ~4 AM PST 9/24.

Just found 3.8.6 Python got released could this be an issue if I'm running on 3.8.5?

same happening with me

I downloaded version 3.8.6. and the problem is still there. So for me the problem arises in Python versions 3.7.9, 3.8.5 and 3.8.6.

bcwein · 2020-09-25T07:52:43Z

I have the same problem, updated my anaconda environment today using
anaconda update -n myenv --all
as well as updating to vscode python extension version 2020.9.111407

Only way that i could get my jupyter notebooks to work again was to downgrade the extension to the previous version as shown in the image below

vietbub · 2020-09-25T08:15:38Z

I can vouche that downgrading the Extension: Python resolves the issue.

To downgrade click on wrench icon and select install another version

RobinYookr · 2020-09-25T08:20:53Z

Downgrading worked for me as well when I use Python 3.7.9, but not when I use 3.8.6 64-bit.

@bcwein thanks for the tip and @vietbub thanks for showing how to downgrade!

anupampydey · 2020-09-25T08:27:09Z

I changed my VS Code update mode to "manual" from "default" and downgraded the Python Extension from 2020.9.111407 to the previous version 2020.8.109390 and now everything is fine. Worked with Jupyter notebooks again without any problem. Thanks bcwein & RobinYookr.

@bcwein @aryvini @anupampydey @vietbub @WallaceKelly
I'm sorry about this issue, i'm currently in the process of looking into this issue.
To get to the bottom of this, please could each of you provide the following:

Confirmation of error message (to ensure that everyone here is getting the exact same issue).
OS (is everyone on Windows)
Console logs (please go into the command Developer: Toggle Developer Tools and copy the contents from the console window

Thanks for being patient and apologies for this issue.

DonJayamanne · 2020-09-25T16:55:49Z

@anupampydey @vietbub I can see you have provided the logs in a separate issue. Thanks & apology for requesting this once again.

I can repro in house. If the user name has a space, it looks like just kernel launching is failing.

WallaceKelly · 2020-09-25T17:58:22Z

@DonJayamanne It actually is not happening for my machine. It is happening for one of my students. But, I recall that she is using Windows and her user path includes a space between her first and last name. I even speculated to her that might be the problem.

rchiodo · 2020-09-25T18:01:27Z

Internal: To repro simple clone the vscode-python repo into a source directory with a space. We should add a test for this.

bcwein · 2020-09-25T18:05:46Z

As requested, @DonJayamanne

I can confirm that i am using windows 10 (build 19041).

I installed Extension: Python to version 2020.9.111407 and can confirm that i have the error

As @rchiodo mentioned. This error occurs if user name has space and i can confirm that my username contains a space.

It took me about 2 days to figure out how to fix it. To resolve this issue: I downgraded the Python Extension to the previous version 2020.8.109390 and it works fine.

hathawayj · 2020-09-30T03:30:36Z

I have a student on a windows computer that is having a similar issue. I am on a MacBook pro and I now cannot connect to the kernel. I tried downgrading my extension version and it did not help.

rchiodo · 2020-10-01T21:56:48Z

This should be fixed now.
