Sign in for Copilot in WSL has problems #204759

Closed b1ackhawk-uh60 closed 9 months ago

b1ackhawk-uh60 commented 10 months ago

Type: Bug

When using copilot in VSCode in WSL, I'm frequently asked to sign in to github, notifications claim that sign in was has not completed. During the time when it is asking or attempting to sign in (takes several minutes) copilot does not work, but once notified that it was not able to log in and I need to finish authorising, it works. Which runs counter to the notifications. I haven't used outside of WSL that much, but it does seem to sign in appropriately. It seems that every new window also prompts to sign into github for copilot again. This is unexpected, unnecessary, redundant and aggrivating.

seems like that vscode was trying to open github in a webpage (which wasn't working). That has been resolved. However, I don't understand why/how copilot was working if it wasn't authenticated...

Hi @b1ackhawk-uh60 sounds like you're unblocked here now. Must have been a blip on GitHub's end.

My guess is that what you were seeing was Copilot asking to you log in with a few additional permissions which allows for some faster searches and a few other features, but if that fails we fall back to a token that can't do as much but still can function.

Let us know if you see this issue in the future!
