Inability to Attach active R terminal on Compute Nodes in HPC Environment
Describe the bug
When launching an active R terminal on a compute node within an HPC environment and attempting to attach it using .vsc.attach(), the terminal remains detached with the message "R: (not attached)" displayed. Clicking to attach does not initiate the attachment process. However, on the login node, the active R terminal automatically attaches as expected, likely due to the configuration in ~/.Rprofile. I found a similar issue reported by another user (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73087813/how-do-i-make-sure-my-r-session-attached-is-using-the-compute-node-instead-of-th), where he mentioned "my data viewer wouldn't be attached and I couldn't view my data in the 'workspace'.", and there hasn't been a solution provided yet.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Launch an interactive R on the compute node on HPC.
- Run
.vsc.attach()in R. - Observe the terminal displaying "R: (not attached)" without successfully attaching.
**Can you fix this issue by yourself? ** No
Please attach setting.json
"r.alwaysUseActiveTerminal": true,
"r.bracketedPaste": true,
"r.sessionWatcher": true,
"r.rterm.option": [],
"r.rterm.linux": "/path/to/radian",
Expected behavior
The terminal should attach successfully to the interactive R session on the compute node when .vsc.attach() is called, similar to the behavior observed on the login node where it attaches automatically.
