Intellicode for Python: 'python.intellicode.loadLanguageServerExtension' not found #509

@GrigoriOH

Description

@GrigoriOH

Product and Version [VS/VSCode]: VSCodium 1.83.0
OS Version [macOS/Windows]: Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS
IntelliCode Extension Version: 1.2.30
Target Platform or Language [e.g. Node.js]: Python3

Steps to Reproduce / Scenario:

  1. Installed intellicode alongside with Pylance (v2023.10.10)
  2. Open *.py file
  3. Error: "Sorry, something went wrong activating IntelliCode support for Python. Please check the "Python" and "VS IntelliCode" output windows for details."

Log output:

Language server is set to Pylance.
Acquiring model
vs-intellicode-python was passed a model: {}.

Error while activating Python: {}

Some search showed the issue #296, but downgrading to 2021.5.926500501 of the Python extension might not be sensible. Further search lead to https://forum.manjaro.org/t/vscode-intellicode-language-server-error-with-python-with-fix/146447 where downgrading Pylance to v2023.6.40 did the trick.

Testing all Pylance versions beginning with the current one (v2023.10.10) down to v2023.6.40 I was able to reproduce the error with every version except for v2023.6.40.

Not sure if this issue is properly placed here, or belongs to the Pylance site, also considering I got a fix to use intellicode for my use case, but for further bug fixes and as a resource for persons with the same issue, this might help.

Let me know if there is more data / logs needed to find the cause here.
