@cyrpl This usually means that the python extension did not activate. Please looks at the Output > python logs for more information.

[karrtikr]

Please check both of these tabs to see if it contains any information why Python extension did not activate.

Output from Console under the Developer Tools panel (toggle Developer Tools on under Help; turn on source maps to make any tracebacks be useful by running Enable source map support for extension debugging)

XXXX

Output for Python in the Output panel (View→Output, change the drop-down the upper-right of the Output panel to Python)
