Can't select interpreter if the Windows Registry can't be accessed #12962

Chris-May · 2020-07-14T20:46:01Z

Environment data

VS Code version: 1.47.1
Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): 2020.6.91350
OS and version: Windows7
Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): Python3.8
Type of virtual environment used (N/A | venv | virtualenv | conda | ...): venv
Relevant/affected Python packages and their versions: n/a
Relevant/affected Python-related VS Code extensions and their versions: XXX
Value of the python.languageServer setting: Jedi

Expected behaviour

In general, I've not seen IntelliSence pick up anything from my code. It's all standard library suggestions, and I cannot select the interpreter. Every time I do, I get an error (see below). I can't figure out what to do.

Actual behaviour

Command 'Python: Select Interpreter' resulted in an error (spawn EPERM)

Steps to reproduce:

Open command pallet
Select and Python option, like Python: Select Interpreter
An error pops up

Hello @Chris-May, thank you for reaching out.

Could you copy the output from the developer tools (command palette > Developer: Toggle Developper Tools) when you get this error?

When you open the command palette and select Python: Select Interpreter, does the error appear straight away? Or do you have access to a dropdown of interpreters, and this error gets triggered when you select an interpreter?

The extension needs access to your Windows registry to look for interpreters, is regedit disabled on your machine? To check that, you can do the following: Press and hold or right-click the Start button, then select Run. Enter regedit in the Open: box and select OK.

Thanks!

Chris-May · 2020-07-15T19:04:10Z

Hey, @kimadeline !!! Thanks for helping me figure out what's going on...

The error pops up right away. I don't see any option to follow up.

H.... It appears as though regedit is disabled on my machine. :\

I have tried to set the interpreter in the workspace settings. It seems as though that doesn't make a difference, since I'd be happy to do that as an alternative.

Here is the error message from the console:

What do you mean when you said you tried to set the interpreter in the workspace settings? How is your project/folder structured?

Chris-May · 2020-07-16T21:26:07Z

My projects are generally like this:

root/
  .venv/
  .vscode/
  src/
    module/
      ...code...
  tests/
    ...tests...

except for when I am creating Azure Functions, then I omit the src/ folder.

I'm sorry, I misspoke... it wasn't in the workspace that I defined the interpreter. It was user settings, under Default Interpreter Path.

kimadeline · 2020-07-16T22:20:33Z

What happens if you try setting the interpreter by adding the python.pythonPath key to your .vscode/settings.json file (or workspace file) and which would be set with the path to your interpreter (C:/Users/path/to/python.exe)?

kimadeline · 2020-07-16T22:23:09Z

👉 To be considered as part of #12020: We need to have a fallback solution and/or handle it gracefully when we don't have access to the registry.

Chris-May · 2020-07-23T16:16:29Z

Sorry for the silence, @kimadeline. I didn't see the notification for this ticket.

I have tried to add these three lines to the .vscode/settings.json (one at a time):

"python.pythonPath": ".venv/Scripts/python.exe"
"python.pythonPath": "./.venv/Scripts/python.exe"
"python.pythonPath": "./.venv/Scripts"

When I saved the file, the python extension created a yellow-colored warning message in the status bar that said "Select Python interpreter". Also, the Azure Function extension asked for me to restart VS Code.

Clicking on the "Select Python Interpreter" status created the "spawn EPERM" popup.

After restarting, the python extension created a popup that said "No Python interpreter is selected. You need to select a Python interpreter to enable features such as IntelliSense, linting, and debugging."

I also have had this in my settings.json file:

"python.pythonPath": ".venv/Scripts/python.exe"

kimadeline · 2020-07-23T17:26:46Z

Since user settings are located with your VS Code installation, it would be better to use an absolute path to a python executable there.

Clicking on the "Select Python Interpreter" status created the "spawn EPERM" popup.

Yep, that's what we need to fix in the extension: Clicking "Select Python Interpreter" triggers interpreter discovery, which needs access to the Windows Registry 🧨

Can you try starting from scratch by creating a new workspace folder + a new virtual environment in it, and set "python.pythonPath": "./venv/Scripts.python.exe" in the .vscode/settings.json file for this new workspace?

Chris-May · 2020-07-24T20:33:37Z

Hey, @kimadeline! Thanks again for your help.

I followed your directions, and nothing happened. The python extension just shows the select python interpreter warning in the status bar.

metinsenturk · 2020-07-29T14:10:08Z

Hi,

I believe I am having the same issue with @Chris-May .

First of all, I am using VSCode on my workstation at the company, therefore, I don't have any administrator rights to my computer, including Regedit.

I tried User installation and Portable version of VSCode by following the documentation. but the issue is still happening. I believe since you guys said above about the registry, even if it is portable, it won't have the rights.

Since this is a company computer, I don't think I will ever have access to the registry, so my hopes are really with #12020.

Steps to Reproduce:

Try this on a computer where you are not an administrator.

Select Python: Select Interpreter from the command pallet.
Error notification pops up.

Logs:

The following logs are for VSCode Portable, I can share for VSCode User as well.

Thank you for reporting back @Chris-May, and thank you for your report @metinsenturk!

We have a two-folded problem here (handling non-access to the registry, and the interpreter not being picked up when python.pythonPath is set when that's the case). The first part will be handled in #12020, and we (on the extension side) will have to investigate the second half further.

kimadeline · 2020-07-30T18:05:41Z

@Chris-May what happens if you use forward slashes in python.pythonPath instead: .venv\\Scripts\\python.exe?

Chris-May · 2020-08-03T15:25:18Z

Hey, @kimadeline! I don't notice any difference between the two. I appreciate the thought!

metinsenturk · 2020-08-24T13:28:14Z

Hi @kimadeline, I don't know if it helps but when I clone the vscode-python repo and use the extension from debugging, extension works as expected. I only get a warning that extension loaded late. I believe this is because of the debugger.
