az cli version 2.65.0 is failing to load `azure-devops`

[jacobbullock]

Describe the bug

I had to update my azure CLI and now I can't download artifacts using azure cli.

Unable to load extension 'azure-devops: No module named 'pkg_resources''. Use --debug for more information.
Preview version of extension is enabled by default for extension installation now. Will be disabled in future release.
Please run 'az config set extension.dynamic_install_allow_preview=true or false' to config it specifically.
The command requires the extension azure-devops. Do you want to install it now? The command will continue to run after the extension is installed. (Y/n): y
Run 'az config set extension.use_dynamic_install=yes_without_prompt' to allow installing extensions without prompt.
Extension 'azure-devops' 0.26.0 is already installed.
It will be overridden with version 1.0.1.
Default enabled including preview versions for extension installation now. Disabled in future release. Use '--allow-preview true' to enable it specifically if needed. Use '--allow-preview false' to install stable version only.
An error occurred whilst updating.
An error occurred. Pip failed with status code 1. Use --debug for more information.
Failed to update. Rolled azure-devops back to 0.26.0.

I've tried using different versions of python locally and nothing is working

I checked the recommend GitHub issues and nothing there fixed my problem.

It seems it for sure a problem with the latest cli. Was able to replicate on a different machine

Exactly :(

[toddthomas]

This is fixed for me with /opt/homebrew/Cellar/azure-cli/2.65.0_2, which I just got by doing brew upgrade.

az --version still reports 2.65.0, but the _2 in the install dir name is key.

[jacobbullock]

brew upgrade also fixed this for me with 2.65.0_2

[zoezhangmattr]

seems like they fixed it, its working now

[darkoa-msft]

It is not fixed. Fresh install on Windows, I am not going to post the debug output but this is what "fixed" it for me:

• get the failing command from the debug output (thanks whoever decided to log quotes)
• remove the path to python and just use python hoping it will pick a working one
• remove --disable-pip-version-check
• run the command In my case it was python.exe -m pip install --target 'C:\\Users\\darkoa\\.azure\\cliextensions\\azure-devops' 'C:\\Users\\darkoa\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\tmp2c989ng9\\azure_devops-1.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl' -vv --no-cache-dir

Your CLI is up-to-date.

[ryangurn]

As a workaround, and I have not had this issue on a Mac yet, but I did experience it on windows.

1. On windows I used the whl endpoint that the az extension add azure-devops --debug command provided.
2. From there I used the WHL file to directly install the package using Pip (fully expecting to get the same error and need to debug more, but that was not needed). Here is the command, pip install --target "C:\Users\<USER>\.azure\cliextensions\azure-devops" "C:\<PATH TO WHL FILE LOCALLY>.whl" --no-cache-dir and it successfully installed.
3. Run az extension add azure-devops --debug and it says the extension is already installed.

The previous example assumes that the WHL file is already on the machine, however in my case I actually had to download it from github based on the endpoints in the debug log.
