Spyder crash when turning on/reconnecting a VPN

Open ifariasg opened this issue 5 years ago • 11 comments

Problem Description

While having a VPN, if I lose connection or manually reconnect spyder crashes with no error message. In my case, the VPN is Windscribe connected to the closest possible node. Turning the VPN off while having Spyder open does not generate a crash.

What steps reproduce the problem?

  1. Open Spyder
  2. Turn on VPN
  3. Crash

Hi @ifariasg sorry to hear that, if the crash is related with the VPN being on or reconnecting maybe the issue is caused by the VPN closing some connection to the LSP. Is there a way for your VPN config to exclude localhost/127.0.0.1 address to prevent connection interruptions? Also, maybe running from the Anaconda prompt spyder --debug-info verbose could give us some useful info about the error and if there is something we can do from the Spyder side.

Any new info is greatly appreciated :)

Ok, so when starting spyder from the command prompt with the VPN ON this occurs. Spyder works perfect in this case but indeed something related with the localhost seems to occur and Kite?

Now, I switch off the VPN and then on to force a crash, this happens:

Follow up, found a workaround by not allowing the VPN to close TCP connections after a connection/reconnection. Far from ideal as it defeats the purpose of a VPN but it works atleast.

Thanks @novaya for pointing that out, I was about to do the same.

@ifariasg, could you run

conda install pyzmq=20

in your environment, revert the changes you did to your VPN client and try again?

That could solve the problem (not really sure from reading that issue though).

@ccordoba12 for some reason I can't even update/install that package.

ifariasg avatar Dec 03 '20 17:12 ifariasg

Could you post the errors you're getting? That package became available a few days ago.

ccordoba12 avatar Dec 03 '20 17:12 ccordoba12

@ccordoba12 endless loop of

(pcrglob_imod) C:\Users\Fari>conda install pyzmq=20
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.
Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source.

Also when trying to update directly from anaconda navigator, even though it shows a package available, it shows as "up to date" when trying to install.

ifariasg avatar Dec 03 '20 17:12 ifariasg

Ok, it seems you need to create a new environment for that:

conda create -n vpn-issue python=3.8 pyzmq=20 spyder

Ok, it seems you need to create a new environment for that:

conda create -n vpn-issue python=3.8 pyzmq=20 spyder

Ok, did this and could install the package. Reverted the VPN changes and repeated the process of my original post. Spyder no longer crashes but the console shows that there is still something wrong as I get an infinite loop of:

And when I say infinite I mean it, its generating 1-4 errors per millisecond of excecution.

Ok, those are good news (hard crashes are the worst).

but the console shows that there is still something wrong as I get an infinite loop of

Ok, that means the ports we use need to be changed from tcp to ipc. However, that's not something we control but it depends on some projects maintained by the Jupyter team. So I don't know when/if it's going to be addressed by them.
