Polyglot Notebooks v1.0.5063010

Question

On opening VS Code (macOS Sonoma 14.2.1), I saw, "The Polyglot Notebooks extension now requires .NET SDK Version 8.0". I clicked the link to upgrade the SDK. Installed w/o issue. I still have the issue. I have the error, "The .NET SDK version 7.0.100 is not sufficient. The required version is 8.0."

Looks like VS Code is still referencing SDK version 7.0.x. I can't seem to be able to update VS Code. Please advise.

Thanks!

can you run 'dotnet --list-sdks' command and show the result?

[chrisrybitski]

This is the output: 7.0.100 [/Users/chris.rybitski/.vscode-dotnet-sdk/.dotnet/sdk]

This is after installing .NET 8 downloaded from here: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/8.0

[colombod]

Ok then that means .NET 8 is not installed correctly or not added to the path correctly

[rynoV]

I was getting the same message after I first installed the extension and reloaded the window even though dotnet 8 is installed I believe

dotnet --list-sdks
6.0.126 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]
8.0.101 [/usr/share/dotnet/sdk]

The message isn't popping up anymore though after reloading again, now I'm just having an issue where code cells won't run (for F# at least), I think the kernel isn't starting

[tuncaybaskan]

This seems like a strange bug. I already have .NET 8 SDK;

C:\>dotnet --list-sdks
5.0.410 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]
7.0.101 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]
8.0.101 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]

I reloaded the window after being sure .NET 8 SDK installed, just like @rynoV experienced the message went away but nothing happens right. I tried to check Output window for some logs but couldn't find anything.

[colombod]

Is this happening on macOs?

[tuncaybaskan]

Nope, I'm on Windows 10.

[rynoV]

Arch 6.7.0 for me

I reloaded the window after being sure .NET 8 SDK installed, just like @rynoV experienced the message went away but nothing happens right.

For me nothing happens if I choose the non-ipynb extension (dib? I forget), but if I choose the ipynb the notebook is created the cells just stall when I run them

[colombod]

Do you have access to any log? Some would be here : and here any process startup issue would be there. Also if you want to enable more logging open the setting for Polyglot Notebooks edit settings in json

 "dotnet-interactive.kernelTransportArgs": [
       "{dotnet_path}",
        "tool",
        "run",
        "dotnet-interactive",
        "--",
         "[vscode]",
         "stdio",
         "--working-dir",
        "{working_dir}",
// enable verbose logs
        "--verbose",
         "--log-path",
        "C:/temp/testlogs/"
     ]

That could help diagnose the isse

[tuncaybaskan]

I edited the settings in json as you mentioned, opened new window and ran the command Install .NET Interactive.

Polyglot Notebook: logger [Error] extension host: Error parsing language configuration for language mustache

Polyglot Notebook: diagnostics Extension started for VS Code Stable. Started process 17812: dotnet tool run dotnet-interactive -- notebook-parser

relevant part of the settings.json To be sure no write permission error can occur changed the log path to writable home directory.

    "dotnet-interactive.kernelTransportArgs": [
        "{dotnet_path}",
        "tool",
        "run",
        "dotnet-interactive",
        "--",
        "[vscode]",
        "stdio",
        "--working-dir",
        "{working_dir}",
        // enable verbose logs
        "--verbose",
        "--log-path",
        "C:/Users/tbaskan/"
    ]

[tuncaybaskan]

Sorry, I forgot to mention there is no new files created in log path.

I encountered the similar issue on Windows 11. When starting a new notebook in VS Code, it seems nothing happened at all. However checking the process with Get-Process | ? {$_.name -imatch "dot"}, I found the id of dotnet process kept changing, which means dotnet processes were terminated, restarted, terminated, restarted, so on and so forth, just like an endless loop.

After some investigation, I guess the issue is the version 1.0.446104 of .NET interactive tool can not run with .NET SDK 8 so I changed the version of .NET SDK and interactive tool in the extension setting as below Then I could create new notebook or open notebook successfully. However, I still have the issue that after rendering the execution result of the command/program, the execution process keeps running, instead of terminating.

Below is how I investigated the issue. TLDR;

According to what colombod mentioned above

Do you have access to any log? Some would be here : and here any process startup issue would be there. Also if you want to enable more logging open the setting for Polyglot Notebooks edit settings in json

         "stdio",
         "--working-dir",
        "{working_dir}",
// enable verbose logs
        "--verbose",
         "--log-path",
        "C:/temp/testlogs/"
     ]

I got the error log like below

Apparently, dotnet-interactive tool cannot be started successfully and VS Code tries starting it repeatedly. I tried starting dotnet-interactive tool from powershell, and got the same error

To me it seems the dotnet-interactive tool installed by VS Code cannot work with my .NET SDK. The funny thing is VS Code even navigated me to the latest .NET SDK and in my case, version 8

I tried install dotnet-interactive directly with my .NET SDK

PS C:\Users\Administrator> dotnet tool install --global Microsoft.dotnet-interactive

PS C:\Users\Administrator\.dotnet\tools> .\dotnet-interactive.exe --version
1.0.522904+cdfa48b2ea1a27dfe0f545c42a34fd3ec7119074

The version is 1.0.522904. So I guess to use .NET SDK 8, I need to specify the version of dotnet-interactive tool in VS Code accordingly.

I finally resolved the cell execution not terminating issue by updating VS Code from version 1.81 to 1.89.
