Always redownload Codeium when reopening VSCode, is this normal?

[feri-irawan]

Is this normal? Every time I reopen VSCode, Codeium is always redownloading

[pqn]

Does Codeium always work after the download? We update versions pretty often, is it possible that your extension has been upgrading on reloads?

[Beetroit]

I also experience this. Every single time. It seems the downloaded file is stored in a temp directory. It keeps redownloading.

[feri-irawan]

Oh, I see. I think it's a bug because VSCode always downloads Codeium in the same size, 25 MB. Codeium works well after downloading.

[luckyalade]

I am experiencing the same issue. It keeps on redownloading whenever I restart my vscode.

[pqn]

For anyone experiencing this, can you include the logs in the Codeium tab in the output pane in VS Code? The logs may help indicate if the download file isn't being found at all, or if the expected checksum of the file is incorrect after download, which causes a redownload. Also reporting this in a new issue since this one has been closed by the original author.

I'am also having the same issue. I use VSCode on Mac

[zengjunke]

I want to know if this problem has been solved? I have also encountered such problems

How often does the software update? I'm not sure if I download it again every time I open it, but I feel like almost every time I open vscode, I download it again.

I think this has been solved as it only installs whenever there is a new update version. However, is there a way to prevent updating to the newer version frequently? I don't want to install every new version and I want to be able to update to a newer version only once a month as this saves me data and other inconsistencies. if this functionality comes up, the issue will be most likely gone.

Why is this closed? It isn't fixed yet, I am experiencing the same problem

[Vengxing]

Anyone found solution to this problem yet? because I'm sure it downloads everytime not because it updates everytime, because there's no way it updates every few minutes reopen. And why is this thread closed?

[feri-irawan]

Maybe we need to disable auto update.

[Domingos-Daniel]

I had the same problem, but I've downloaded manually a server version in https://github.com/Exafunction/codeium/releases, and extraced the .exe file and placed in C:\Users\PC.vscode\extensions\codeium.codeium-1.12.6\dist, i am using windows, then just restart your vs code and it's done, hope it was useful .

[HanslettTheDev]

It's surprising that this issue was closed meanwhile it's still a problem

[streetlife]

I stopped closing VSCode. Restarting VSCode always forced a download of the language server, and if I have a connection issue, I will need to restart VSCode.

[CRIMSON-CORP]

This is still an issue, please reopen, i still have this issue

[starlingvibes]

I still have this issue and it's becoming pretty annoying tbh

[WerdienJihed]

I have been experiencing this issue for months now. And It's 100% not at update It can be triggered on window reload more than once a day. The download size is 31.55MB each time.

[HanslettTheDev]

After some investigation, I found some two unique errors that should give a hint to what is actually going wrong

Codeium: ENOENT: no such file or directory, rename *c:\Users\DELL\,vscode\extensions\codeium.codeium- 1.23.4\dist\d7e8f56c3ee3982e7019ba6161979a54e8f0b89

X
Source: Codeium: Al Coding Autocomplete and Chat for Python, Javascript. Type...

And this other error

Based on my findings and looking at the vscode exthost.log file and the extension.js file, the issue could be related to CRC32. What is CRC32? "CRC32 stands for Cyclic Redundancy Check 32-bit and is used to detect accidental changes to raw data in digital networks and storage devices. It's used for error-checking to ensure data integrity"

And after taking a look at the extension.js(Almost 2.5 million lines of minified JS Code), I realized they could be an issue how this check is done that somehow triggers the redownload issue. Typically when the CRC32 check fails, Codeium attempts to redownload the language server exe file into this location C:\Users[Username].vscode\extensions\codeium.codeium-1.23.4\dist. It's possible for a file to get downloaded but the CRC32 check fails and therefore causes this continuous cycle of redownloading the file

Temporal fix You could manually download the language server file or make a copy of it and store it in the same location so codeium always find it

But I guess the maintainers can look into this better. Since I don't think the vscode extension has been made public yet!!

[HanslettTheDev]

You can use the vscode developer tools to see more output from codeium when vscode tries activating extensions and gets to codeium

[Mehdi-Messaadi-BUYSELL]

I can confirm that this issue persists on my end to this day. Would greatly appreciate any fix for this.

[yubaoquan]

I have several vscode windows open, and each vscode window will download codeium when I reload it. I think it should only download once.

[teknosains]

it seems still haven't been fixed yet.
