Intellisense for Azure CLI throwing error

[rich17lucas]

The AZ Cli plugin is not giving any Intellisense suggestions.

In the Developer Tools console I see these errors appear as I type az.

If I create a Python file in VSCode, the Python Extension works perfectly, so this seems to be AZCLI extension specific.

Which version of the Azure CLI are you running?

[rich17lucas]

Hi Christof, I installed version 0.5.0.

[chrmarti]

@rich17lucas That must be the extension's version. What does az --version tell you?

[rich17lucas]

@chrmarti Apologies. The output is:

az --version
azure-cli                          2.1.0

The Python location is interesting as the error message in the VSCode console refers to the Anaconda installation on the E:

[chrmarti]

What do you get for the following in PowerShell:

& 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\CLI2\python.exe' -c "import sys; print('\n'.join(sys.path))"

Please upgrade to the Azure CLI 2.2.0 to make sure you are not missing any bugfixes.

[rich17lucas]

Hi The PowerShell output is here:

And if I just run python from a prompt the system opens the Windows AppStore and displays Python 3.8.

[chrmarti]

Could you change %USERPROFILE%\.vscode\extensions\ms-vscode.azurecli-0.5.0\service\az-service.bat by adding -IB to line 4 to:

@echo off
setlocal

%1 -IB %~dp0start.py %*

endlocal

and let me know if that helps?

[rich17lucas]

Hi Christof, You are a 'steely-eyed missile man'. The -IB fixed the problem. What does it do?

[chrmarti]

It runs Python in isolated mode. (Reopening for tracking.)
