[BUG] .NET MAUI endlessly stuck on 'Xcode: verifying environment'

DDHSchmidt commented 1 month ago

Describe the Issue

I am not able to start debugging my .Net Maui project due to the .Net Maui never finishing initialization. It remains endlessly stuck on the notification 'Xcode: verifying environment' When trying "Run and Debug", the .Net Maui Debugger isn't even available:

Opening the same project with Visual Studio for Mac, I have no problem building and deploying it to either a simulator or my iPad. Running the task 'Refresh Apple environment' yields an error: But I have no idea what to do about it. I had adhered to the installation instructions, but the error remains. Xcode 15.2 meanwhile is installed:

And as I said: Visual Studio for Mac still happily compiles the solution with the aid of Xcode.

Steps To Reproduce

Open a Maui project
Extension endlessly gets stuck on 'Xcode: verifying environment'

Expected Behavior

I'd hope to be able to run & debug my Maui app with the help of the extension

I had the same issue - deleting almost all my simulators in Xcode seems to have resolved it (Window|Devices and Simulators|Simulators) - select old ones and right-click to delete. I had lot there.

I debugged by going to ~/Library/Application Support/Code/logs and deleting all the log folders, then launching vs-code, waiting for it to hang on Xcode: verifying environment and searching the logs for Xcode. This took me to 0240526T093247/window1/exthost/ms-dotnettools.csdevkit/ServiceHub/4B2C793E-Microsoft.VisualStudio.Maui.Devices.AppleDeviceManager-60217-elwty2to-1.log and the last lines were

05/26/2024 09:32:55 Central European Standard Time : Information : [AppleDeviceManager] Process: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcodebuild -license check
05/26/2024 09:32:55 Central European Standard Time : Information : [AppleDeviceManager] Start Watching, initial refresh...
05/26/2024 09:32:55 Central European Standard Time : Information : [AppleDeviceManager] Refreshing devices (WaitForNetwork=False)
05/26/2024 09:32:55 Central European Standard Time : Information : [AppleDeviceManager] Process: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcdevice list --timeout=2

So I decided that the listing of the devices/simulators might be the issue - which led me to deleting almost all my simulators. And that worked.

If you decide to try this, perhaps save the results of executing /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcdevice list --timeout=2 to help the team debug (too late for me).

Edit: I had the same problem on another device: xcdevice list --timeout=2 output attached, prior to trimming xdevice list.txt

I've been experiencing this for over a month and the solution provided by @DamianMehers finally solved it!

In my case, the system is stuck on /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/simctl list, and calling that returns a list of devices including ones that maps to old sdk which has already been deleted from my system. While I have no idea how to verify this, My suspicion is that this reference to deleted old sdk might be the cause of this issue.

After cleaning up the old simulator devices and restarting computer, the extension finally completed resolving the issue

I have the same issue and will try the proposed solution in near future. Unitil then here is my list of simulators produced by /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcdevice list --timeout=2:

Thanks for the suggestions. I had indeed 35 simulators in my Xcode list under "simulators". Manually executing xcdevice list --timeout=2 executed in under 10 seconds on my machine, though. Nevertheless I deleted all but 5 simulators from Xcode, rebooted the machine and... nothing changed. VSCode still gets stuck endlessly on "Xcode: verifying environment" -_-°

Following @DamianMehers suggestion I searched all the logs under Library/Application Support/Code/logs for "xcode" and found 1 file: ~/Application Support/Code/logs/20240528T173530/window1/exthost/ms-dotnettools.csdevkit/ServiceHub/6B580919-Microsoft.VisualStudio.Maui.Devices.AppleDeviceManager-1364-lvneuuul-1.log

The last line reads: ... [AppleDeviceManager] Process: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/simctl list Executing simctl list manually from a terminal window resolves instantly.

I'm still left wondering why the VsCode MAUI extension hangs on my machine?

In my case, /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/simctl list also executed instantly, but shows a lot of simulators even though its no longer listed in the xocde "Devices and Simulators"

Looking at path /Users/[username]/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices I saw a lot of devices there, and a lot of entries for previous sdks as well on the device_set.plist

These are snippet of outputs on what I saw using command simctl list

-- Unavailable: com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-15-5 --
    iPhone 8 (72848836-62C4-43E7-82CB-411777907839) (Shutdown) (unavailable, runtime profile not found using "System" match policy)

    Phone: iPhone 11 Pro (CE9BBCA8-6592-4E3F-89E2-C5D02A375073) (Shutdown)

So after that I did:

Delete all simulators that are not latest version (iOS 17.5 for me)
Modified device_set.plist to remove all default device & device pairs except for 17.5
Restarted the computer
Ran simctl list again to make sure only iOS 17.5 devices are showing and there is no longer "unavailable" devices
Opened vscode to see it working

@krisna360 Thanks for the heads up. A simctl delete unavailable with a subsequent restart did indeed resolve the never ending wait for 'Xcode: verifying environment' 🥳

The next problem is that every third or fourth time I try to debug on my physical device it says "Can't select debug target" and I already see that there are half a dozen different bugs open for that... 🙄

Still: This is very laborious and makes me think that the whole VSCode-plugins-pipeline is more fragile than a snowflake in hell.

Let's just say: I'd feel much safer if the person who decided "Hell yeah, let's boot Visual Studio for Mac for this piece of quality softare right now!" would never get near the .Net Maui ecosystem ever again...

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/simctl delete unavailable and a mac restart solved it for me!

Thanks for all the feedback and suggestions. Please take into account that .NET MAUI has been removed from the debuggers list when you press F5, since we are not integrated into the C# debugger entry. That said, we'll review the simulator cases and get back with more info.
