Couldn't find any projects

[BoilerTom90]

I created a new nx workspace for an angular project.

I've opened vscode in the project root, and when I open the nx console, it says "we can't find any projects in this workspace."

Refreshing does nothing. I can run the "nx serve " command from the CLI and it works so I know I'm in the project workspace.

Current Behavior

Nx Console says it can't find any projects.

Expected Behavior

I was expecting the nx console to find my angular project. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and also restarting vscode, but it can't find my project.

Having the same issue (in VS code and Webstorm). When pressing 'Refresh Workspace' in VS code gives me this output:

Telemetry: production Graph - init Error: Request nx/reset failed with message: Command failed: pnpm exec nx reset nx reset

Clears all the cached Nx artifacts and metadata about the workspace and shuts down the Nx Daemon.

Hey @BoilerTom90 could you share some logs from the Output -> Nx Language Server Tab as well? @Hypenate I'm working on an update that will fix the error message you're seeing. It really shouldn't be happening, though... Do you have another nx process running in the same repo, by any chance?

[Hypenate]

@MaxKless No, I closed all nodejs instances via the Task Manager and the issue is still present.

I must be blind because I don't see a 'Output -> Nx Language Server' tab. Can you shed some light on where I would find that?

[MaxKless]

it's in the outputs tab in vscode. It could also be called Nx Console Client depending on your version.

[BoilerTom90]

ah, thanks for that. I haven't much of a need to look in that output console, until now. When I look at the choices in the OUTPUT pulldown menu, I see

• Nx Console
• Nx Console Client

I do not see Nx Language Server.

There isn't much in the Nx Console output, but here's the output from the Nx Console Client when I click the "refresh projects" button

--- it's worth nothing I have a couple other Nx projects that do not have this problem. The ones that do NOT have this problem are using an older version of Nx.

Hey @BoilerTom90! First of all, it looks like you're on an outdated version of Nx Console, so I'd recommend updating to ensure you have the latest bugfixes. If you're seeing these logs on nx 18.3.4, you're really quite behind.

Either way, I've added a PR https://github.com/nrwl/nx-console/pull/2120 which should hopefully catch this error and similar ones.

[MaxKless]

I'm going to close this for now, if the issue still persists on a newer version of Nx Console please let me know. (I'm going to release a version with the fix from #2120 today as well)

Thank you!

Max, I don't understand the comment. 18.3.4 is the latest version of Nx. How can I be behind? I didn't actually see any of these issues until I went to the latest of Nx and Nx Console.

[MaxKless]

Can you check your Nx Console version and paste it here? I'm asking because in your issue you list Nx Console 18.12.0 but the latest version is 18.21.1 https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=nrwl.angular-console

So you're 10 versions behind. Maybe you have to update your VSCode as well to enable the latest Nx Console versions.

[Hypenate]

We fixed it by adding @swc/helpers to the package.json

the problem is when you're installing extension from vscode market it is installing 18.12.0....

[MaxKless]

Is it possible you haven't updated your VSCode in a while?

[BoilerTom90]

My problem was very intermittent, and probably more to do with my PC needing frequent reboots. I haven't had this issue in many days.
