New "conda run" method of running python file results in errors · Issue #18634 · microsoft/vscode-python (original) (raw)
Issue Type: Bug
Prior to update February 2022 1.65 you had to set: "python.terminal.activateEnvironment": true to make VSCode activate the selected environment with Conda and not to use the base one, now you need to set this option to false to be able to run the environment.
Step to Reproduce:
1- Use Conda as Python interpreter in VSCode
2- Set in VSCode a Python environment different from "base"
3- Set "python.terminal.activateEnvironment": true
4- If you have an open terminal, kill it
5- Run your code.
At this step you will note that the terminal run conda activate <env_name> and then & conda run -n <env_name> --no-capture-output --live-stream python <full_filePath> and if the library you are importing is not in the "base" environment, you will get the error of missing module.
Error examples:
ERROR conda.cli.main_run:execute(33): Subprocess for 'conda run [' XXXXXXXXXX']' command failed. (See above for error)- Module not found etc.
Fix:
set "python.terminal.activateEnvironment": false in your VSCode settings, reset terminal and it will run only & conda run -n <env_name> --no-capture-output --live-stream python <full_filePath>
Expected Results:
Not sure if the expected behaviour is to set "python.terminal.activateEnvironment" to True or to False, at previous issues like #9507, to set it False was a quick fix until an update was pushed.
As a Conda user, this new behaviour would have saved me the trouble of setting "python.terminal.activateEnvironment" to True to use my environments (There is no warning about this so you require a bit of research to work with conda environments for the first time)
