[Plachey]

Hello, I use python 3.8, pyright 1.1.239
config.toml

[tool.pyright]
pythonVersion = "3.8"
pythonPlatform = "Linux"
reportPrivateImportUsage = false
python.analysis.useLibraryCodeForTypes = true

docker-compose where start pyright but i got error:

File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pyright/node.py", line 121, in version
    raise errors.VersionCheckFailed(
pyright.errors.VersionCheckFailed: Could not find version from `npx --version`, see output above

npm notice  

Can't fix it

@Plachey Is that the full output? The output of the npx --version command should be above that stack trace, is it there?

@Plachey That is weird. Could you try setting the env variable PYRIGHT_PYTHON_DEBUG to 1. That'll show you some debug logs and where the node environment is installed to. Could you then try running the downloaded binary like so to see what that outputs, e.g. /tmp/pyright-python/bin/npx --version. Thanks

[Plachey]

I did debug, but I'm not sure where use that /tmp/pyright-python/bin/npx --version

[RobertCraigie]

@Plachey that error message seems to have changed. It's now saying that it couldn't find a version for pyright (by running the npm info pyright version command).

I'm not sure how to go about resolving this. Are you using a VPN?

[ultmaster]

I'm having the same issue.

Other than the error message above, I also had an error about GLIBC version. The solution is here: microsoft/pyright#3414.

I am currently facing this same issue @RobertCraigie here's the log with debug turned on.

[RobertCraigie]

This is a bizarre issue, I have no idea what would be causing this. Something somewhere is causing a circular call as the version was successfully extracted earlier in those logs.

As I can't figure out what could be causing this, I think the solution here is to simply add an option to disable the version check.

[olatelnyx]

How can I disable the version check currently?

[RobertCraigie]

You currently cannot, sorry if I worded that badly. I will add an option to disable it :)
