Spring Boot Dashboard throws an error while trying to perform the Start command

[gabipetrovay]

I get the following notification:

Command 'Spring Boot Dashboard: Start ...' resulted in an error (command 'spring-boot-dashboard.localapp.start-multiple' not found)

when I run the command (command + 3):

>Spring Boot Dashboard: Start ...

I am using the latest VS Code on a MacBook OS Catalina:

Version: 1.53.2
Commit: 622cb03f7e070a9670c94bae1a45d78d7181fbd4
Date: 2021-02-11T11:45:54.515Z (9 hrs ago)
Electron: 11.2.1
Chrome: 87.0.4280.141
Node.js: 12.18.3
V8: 8.7.220.31-electron.0
OS: Darwin x64 19.6.0

with the "Spring Boot Extension Pack" v0.0.8 (containing "Spring Boot Dashboard" 0.2.0).

I tried to:

• remove the VS Code application and installed it again, but all the preferences are kept after the new installation.
• uninstalled all the Spring Boot extension (and the extension pack) and installed them again
• downgraded "Spring Boot Dashboard" to version 0.1.10 where it was behaving the same and the upgraded back

None of these helped.

Also the Spring Boot Dashboard is not visible in the Explorer. This was also pointed in the issue #120.

(command 'spring-boot-dashboard.localapp.start-multiple' not found)

It's because springboot dashboard extension was not activated. It's activated when you expand the dashboard.

As I mentioned in https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-spring-boot-dashboard/issues/120#issuecomment-769581671 , the dashboard is visible only when Java extension is working on "standard mode".

Please check status of the Java extension. When you open a .java file, check if there's a "thumb up" icon in status bar.
