Jetbrains Wakatime not posting stats

[david-kariuki]

Hi there, I am using Intellij Ultimate on Fedora Linux 37. This issue was also persistent on 36.
I have wakatime integration on my chrome too.
My problem is, the wakatime on my Intellij IDE does not post stats to my wakatime profile. I only see stats from my chrome browser. It has been this way for the last 2 months. On VSCode, the experience is much better, I see my stats on the dashboard, unlike Intellij.
Do you have such an issue on your tracker?

Haven't seen this before. Please look for WakaTime related logs in your idea.log file so we can figure out what's going wrong:

How do I send/attach these logs privately?

[alanhamlett]

@david-kariuki you can send the logs to support@wakatime.com

@nuth-vireak please create an issue on the github profile readme's repo since we don't maintain those.

[david-kariuki]

Alright. I have sent a zip

Got the logs. I'm seeing WakaTime - Command finished with return value: 102 which means there was a networking error when trying to sync with the api. Can you check your ~/.wakatime.log file for errors?

Your vscode is running on the same machine? It's strange that would work but not IntelliJ because they use the same wakatime-cli binary (~/.wakatime/wakatime-cli-linux-amd64) to sync with the api.

VS code works perfectly

[alanhamlett]

Can you email your ~/.wakatime.log file?

[david-kariuki]

Hi, @alanhamlett , I have mailed you the wakatime.log and .cfg files

[alanhamlett]

I see the problem, you have the example (invalid) proxy defined in your ~/.wakatime.cfg file. You should delete all those example lines and only leave two lines in that cfg file:

[settings]
api_key = XXXX

Replacing XXXX with your real secret api key.

Normally you shouldn't need to edit ~/.wakatime.cfg manually unless you want to add advanced configs. Your IDE would create that cfg file the first time you install the wakatime plugin.

Thank you @alanhamlett
This worked for me. Great work.
