IntelliSense and formatting not working on a fresh install

[upkarlidder]

Environment data

VS Code version: 1.18.1
Python Extension version: 0.8.0
Python Version: 3.6.1
OS and version: macOS Sierra 10.12.6

Actual behavior

I just installed vscode and the python extension. I don't get any auto completion or auto formatting. I have the following in my settings.json

{
    "python.pythonPath": "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin/python3"
}

Expected behavior

Expect to see autocompletion and autosuggestion when I type os. after import os.

Steps to reproduce:

• install vs code on osx

• install python extension

• IntelliSense not working

• I also tried Python: Select Interpreter. I get command 'python.setInterpreter' not found.

• Please remove the above setting from the settings.json file and restart VS Code.
  That should fix the problem.
• Please ensure the above path exists, please type in the following in your terminal window and let me know what you get:
  /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin/python3

Thank you @DonJayamanne

I removed the setting from User Settings as shown below:

Still unable to get any IntelliSense:

Path on terminal:

This is the extension installed:

Extensions folder:

I suspect this is to do with the new workspace stuff introduced. That's what everything broke. I must have a setting somewhere I need to clean up. Does it matter how I start the editor? I am using code . in my project directory. I also activate a virtualenv before doing that. Thanks for your help again !

Got it, will look into this asap.

[DonJayamanne]

I'll make a change to add more exception handling around this area.
The problem seems to be in nodejs and something in your current PATH variable. There must be a format that isn't being supported or could be some underlying permission issue.

Please could you print the contents of your PATH environment variable.

Thank you @DonJayamanne. This was the culprit
/Library/TeX/texbin/pdflatex

It works when I remove that. Chalk this up to user error :(. Thank you for your help.
