Cannot create a workspace, crash with ToolBadExitCodeException: KEY_TF_BAD_EXIT_CODE

[Nerves82]

I am attempting to create a workspace from TFSVC in Jetbrains Rider on Mac, I get to the project select screen and select the project I want to create a workspace for and when I click "Create Workspace" it crashes and I am shown the below exception. I have tried with and without "Use built in reactive client when possible" selected and I have tried adjusting the reactive client memory limit from the default of 2048mb down to 512mb and 1024mb. I have also opened the TF executable and changed the memory value as suggested here but still get the crash.

Jetbrains Rider version 2020.2 Azure DeveOps plugin 1.161.0 tee-clc/14.134.0_1 installed

Could you attach IDE logs please? Help → Diagnostic Tools → Show Log in Finder.

From the error message itself, it is unclear what the particular problem is.

Here are the logs. Archive.zip

Any update on this?

[ForNeVeR]

@Nerves82, your logs indicate that the TFVC client has crashed its JVM inside of the the native function Java_com_microsoft_tfs_jni_internal_keychain_NativeKeychain_nativeFindInternetPassword.

The client could try to use this function for some of its functionality (e.g. to read or store the TFVC password), but actually it shouldn't do that.

There's a fork of TFVC client, where this functionality (managing the native keychain) was removed, so this function could no longer crash. Could you try using it? Download the client (e.g. TEE-CLC-14.135.1.zip) from JetBrains fork's Releases page.

[ForNeVeR]

Since the issue doesn't look like actionable from the plugin side (and we have a workaround implemented in the TFVC client itself), I'm going to close the issue.
