Extension host terminated unexpectedly.
Enabling the extension causes the "Extension host terminated unexpectedly" error.

Are you able to get any more detailed logs?
From a quick look, it appears maybe you do not have git installed and this is a dependency? Can you confirm?
- quickfix: install git
- mid term: we can try to have a fallback, but this may really impact performance, so you prolly want to do (1) anyway
Surprised this has never come up before if this is the root cause...
Confirmed git is a dep: https://github.com/kortina/vscode-markdown-notes/blob/master/src/findNonIgnoredFiles.ts#L26
I've installed git system-wide and added path to git_path:
The error changed:
findNonIgnoredFiles-git-exec-error Error: Command failed: git check-ignore fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
The Extension crushes only if specific folder is being opened:
D:\backup\Gdrive\LOGBOOK\Обработка_результатов
Could it be almighty Russian "I'll slip into you path and break everything" Cyrillic?
UPD: Still a crash after a directory renamed.
Maybe. Do you still get a crash if you checkout the source for this repo and open the test dir: https://github.com/kortina/vscode-markdown-notes/tree/master/test
Works fine.
Some folders cause crashes:
I have no idea, what crashing folders have in common.
Maybe find 1 crashing folder, and then go through and remove all files except 1 for each file and see if you can isolate the crash to a specific file causing it?
It's somehow connected with total size of .txt files.
If any (I didn't test all of them, only tested a few) .txt of size 20+MB is deleted, the error is gone.
First of all, thanks for this great extension! It makes note-keeping in VSCode with Foam much more slick and fun.
I'm experiencing similar behavior, in that Markdown Notes seems to be crashing the extension host, but a different error message in the VSCode console.
I don't understand why it fails to find /bin/sh which is assuredly present.
When I disable Markdown Notes and reload the VSCode window, the extension host no longer crashes.
I'm installing Insiders now to test there as well.
I'm unable to replicate this issue.
@jeffmcneill what OS are you on? How many files and folders are in the project folder you're trying to use the extension with? (Maybe a project size issue similar to @RustyWraith's?)
@kortina
- Debian Testing
- VS Code 1.71.2
- Project folder has a large number of files and folders, as I use this as a general text editor. Hundreds of folders, thousands of files. Does the extension try and read those files/folders in some way?
Yes, it parses the contents of every file to find backlinks and tags. It probably won't work for such a large project folder. Long term it probably makes more sense to move all of this to a language server / background process, but that's not the way it works today. Sorry!
