Copilot completions showing, but not filling on remote Pycharm

[loodvn]

Hi there,

I'm using copilot with PyCharm plugin (1.1.28.1744).

My copilot suggestions are showing successfully, but then can't be applied when I press tab.
I'm using a remote PyCharm development environment, and according to the debugging logs this is the error:
2022-08-01 16:58:50,734 [ 66842] WARN - #c.j.r.a.BackendActionExecutorDelegate - Action copilot.applyInlays (class com.github.copilot.actions.CopilotApplyInlaysAction) is disabled and won't be executed

Is it possible that the Copilot plugin is enabling suggestions, but disabling applying completions?
Completions work fine on my local PyCharm installation (also PyCharm 2022.2 and copilot v1.1.28.1744).

The only difference is that locally I see a "Logout from GitHub" option on my Copilot plugin, and on the remote IDE it doesn't show that, which makes me believe that copilot might have disabled it.

However, I can't find a way to login to github again through the copilot plugin (to authenticate), so I assume it's still using the same working credentials as my local version...

I do not see suggestions at all when using JetBrains Client with Webstorm. This is the first time I used the copilot plugin.

Copilot seems to be working with the Jetbrains Client after the latest updates (Copilot plugin version 1.2.5.2507)! It didn't work until after I removed the Copilot extension from from the host, so the extension was installed on the client only.

I'm using "JetBrains Client 2023.1 Beta" on Windows 11 as the client (launched through PyCharm on WIndows) and PyCharm Ubuntu for WSL 2 as the host. I think this is the PyCharm on Ubuntu for WSL 2 is PyCharm 2023.1 (Professional Edition) Build #PY-231.8109.197. I'm using the Copilot plugin version 1.2.5.2507 on the client only.

the same using "code with me" extension, only the host can accept the suggestion...

[aless673]

Still same issue (PhpStorm). Really bad experience for developers...
Tried VS Code but.. really I miss my PhpStorm

[j0eii]

Experienced the same issue

[helderlj]

This is still going.... PHPStorm + WSL + Copilot Plugin = frustration. It works flawlessly on VSCode.

Hi all! Here is the solution to the problem: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/GTW-3086/Possible-remote-specific-error-Github-Copilot-suggestions-showing-but-not-completing

"- add the Github Coopilot plugin ONLY FOR THE CLIENT (Settings/Plugins client) and not for the host! Remove or disable the Coopilot plugin from the host!

• Close the GoLand (or any Jetbrains IDE) and restart the remote server"

[Trolann]

Latest IDE/Remote Development updates from Jetbrains appear to correct the issue. Installing Copilot as a host plugin on WSL2 or Ubuntu machines are working with tab as expected now; tested in PyCharm and CLion

@loodvn you might be able to close

[LucioMansilla]

still not working on Code With Me application..
the host is the only who can accept the suggest of copilot.

[gillbates]

same here.
workaround:
1, uninstall copilot from plugin host
2, install copilot in plugin client.

[bgrieder]

If the Copilot plugin is installed on both the host and the client, they must be both uninstalled before re-installing the one on the client only (this is tested on RustRover)

This is the only set of steps that resolved this issue for me

Thank you. This was indeed the only way to make it work.
