Wrong strings and missing icon in activity bar

[bwateratmsft]

Filed based on microsoft/vscode-docker#3783 (comment) from @Bananas-Are-Yellow

The user has installed the Docker extension, and on version 1.23.3, none of the strings show up correctly--instead displaying their placeholder IDs for indexing into package.nls.json--and the icon in the activity bar is blank. Installing 1.22.2 fixes it, but uninstalling and reinstalling 1.23.3 does not. This is the only user we're aware of that is affected by this issue.

Seems similar to #159485.

[TylerLeonhardt]

@bwateratmsft @Bananas-Are-Yellow was there any error in the dev tools (>Developer: Toggle Developer Tools) when you saw this?

Maybe something in the Window Shared or Main Output windows (ctrl+shift+o I think on Windows?)

[Bananas-Are-Yellow]

In the first section where it says %VSCODE-DOCKER.VIEWS,DOCKERCONTAINERS%, I pressed the Refresh icon that appears when I move the mouse over that heading. In the Dev Tools console output, I got this:

Likewise if I refresh any of the other sections.

[Bananas-Are-Yellow]

The problem has gone away for me now. See microsoft/vscode-docker#3783 (comment) for details.

[TylerLeonhardt]

Odd... well if you do see it again, I'd love to know more! Closing this since the repro is gone.

Looks like this hit another user: microsoft/vscode-docker#3853

/cc @matteo-bombelli

an update:

• reinstalling the plugin with version v1.24.0 does not solve the issue. (issues only on wsl)
• downgrading it to v1.23.3 does solve the issue

I hope this detail could help for future releases.

@matteo-bombelli

issues only on wsl

can you elaborate more on this?

[matteo-bombelli]

i have ubuntu and debian installed on windows using wsl (windows subsystem for linux). if I use this extension with workspaces on windows I have no issues, instead if I use it with the one that are on the linux subsystem (both ubuntu and debian) I get the issue described here. If I degrade the version to the old one I get no issue on windows but also no issue on wsl linux.

Thank you!

[TylerLeonhardt]

@matteo-bombelli when opening the WSL workspaces, are you using the WSL extension?

[matteo-bombelli]

yes I'm using the extension

[TylerLeonhardt]

@matteo-bombelli can you share the full recursive directory of the docker extension underneath ~/.vscode-server/extensions/? The directory should be ms-azuretools.vscode-docker-1.24.0

[matteo-bombelli]

@TylerLeonhardt on windows or wsl?

[TylerLeonhardt]

WSL

[matteo-bombelli]

on wsl

/home/matteo/.vscode-server/extensions/ms-azuretools.vscode-docker-1.23.3/

[matteo-bombelli]

on wsl

/home/matteo/.vscode-server/extensions/ms-azuretools.vscode-docker-1.23.3/

just a note, now I downgraded ... It was 1.24 when the problem was showing.... sorry for the confusion

[TylerLeonhardt]

Can you run tree on the good directory and bad directory?

I'd love to compare their file structure

now it works even 1.24.0 🤨

[TylerLeonhardt]

The bug realized we were on to it, so it decided to hide. @matteo-bombelli are you using VS Code stable or insiders?

stable

[TylerLeonhardt]

Ok sounds good. We did have a few smaller fixes in the translation stuff this past month so this might go away... in any case, since we don't have a repro anymore, I'll close this.

When this does happen to someone again, I would love the contents of the Shared output channel... and maybe the contents of Dev Tools (Toggle Developer Tools in Command Palette) as well
