Thank you for opening this issue, we will look into it.

[jiasli]

OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument indicates incorrect file name, but 'C:\\Users\\rsmith\\.azure\\msal_token_cache.bin' looks totally valid.

I am also not able to repro this Errno 22 by executing:

> & "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\CLI2\python.exe"
>>> open('C:\\Users\\rsmith\\.azure\\msal_token_cache.bin')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\Users\\rsmith\\.azure\\msal_token_cache.bin'

@r0dg3rd0dg3r, could you try the above commands and check the output? You need to run python.exe with & "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\CLI2\python.exe" as you are using 32-bit Azure CLI.

@rayluo, by any chance you have encountered this issue before?

[rayluo]

@r0dg3rd0dg3r , how do you reproduce this error?

I do not remember encountering OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument. That being said, I hardly use/test with MSAL Extension's persistence in my usage. Or perhaps if @jiasli can guide @r0dg3rd0dg3r to temporarily turn off encryption to see if it makes any difference.

[jiasli]

In my opinion, if 'C:\\Users\\rsmith\\.azure\\msal_token_cache.bin' is invalid, 'C:\\Users\\rsmith\\.azure\\msal_token_cache.json' can also be invalid. 🤔

In my opinion, if 'C:\\Users\\rsmith\\.azure\\msal_token_cache.bin' is invalid, 'C:\\Users\\rsmith\\.azure\\msal_token_cache.json' can also be invalid. 🤔

Empirically, encryption (DPAPI) could raise some weird errors and we never really know why. There are multiple issues reported before in Azure CLI issues, although not necessarily this OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument.

Regardless, we can't really investigate without a reproduce.
