conda-env-activate-for-buffer sets PATH to "", causing "ls" "git" "bash" to fail #145

Open guicho271828 opened 1 year ago

guicho271828 commented 1 year ago

After activating a conda env, emacs starts failing to resolve external program, such as git or ls, in exchange to giving me the ability to M-. into the libraries in the environment.

Before activating the environment: Result of M-: (getenv "PATH") Screenshot from 2023-04-06 16-56-12

After: Result of M-: (getenv "PATH") Screenshot from 2023-04-06 16-56-31

Magit fails Screenshot from 2023-04-06 16-57-44

Dired fails Screenshot from 2023-04-06 17-02-52

Can't run anything from shell-mode buffer Screenshot from 2023-04-06 16-59-46

I worried about my config-vars but this does not show anything suspicious Screenshot from 2023-04-06 17-06-45

Hi -- can you confirm what the behavior is:

Hmm, when I create a new environment without conda env config vars set, the issue does not occur.

necaris commented 1 year ago

Can you show the conda env config vars you have set?

guicho271828 commented 1 year ago 
    conda env config vars set LD_LIBRARY_PATH=
    conda env config vars set PYTHONPATH=
    conda env config vars set PKG_CONFIG_PATH=
    conda env config vars set PYTHONHASHSEED=30294 # set for reproducibility:

espentrydal commented 8 months ago

@necaris I have the same problem. This happens not on the first run but if I run (conda-env activate "environment") twice in the same buffer. I use org-babel, so sometimes, if I want to rerun the whole buffer, this function in an elisp code block will run twice.

necaris commented 8 months ago

@espentrydal Does this behave the same as @guicho271828 above -- can you try the same debugging steps?

(cond env config vars list returned just a blank line.)

This is after the first activation of the conda environment(conda-env-activate "homl3"). After the second activation no commands are available since PATH="".

EDIT add: The second activation can be the same or another environment. Killing the buffer after the first activation and then opening it again does not help, I have to restart emacs to be able to activate a second conda environment.

Dear @necaris,

First of all, a big thank you for your great package!

I am also able to reproduce the same issue, systematically. For me, it is with conda-env-autoactivate-mode set to t, upon generating a commit message with magit.

This causes a call to: (conda-env-activate-path "/") Then in function conda-env-activate-path, this causes (conda--get-activation-parameters "/") to return:

s(conda-env-params "" nil nil nil nil nil)

And (conda-env-params-path params)

to return the empty string "", which is then used to set PATH and exec-path.

Here is the stack trace when using debug-on-entry on function conda-env-activate-path:

Debugger entered--entering a function:

  • conda-env-activate-path("/") (let ((env-name (or name (conda--read-env-name))) (env-dir (conda-env-name-to-dir env-name))) (conda-env-activate-path env-dir)) conda-env-activate("/") (if (not (eql env-path nil)) (conda-env-activate env-path) (if conda-message-on-environment-switch (message "No Conda environment found for <%s>" (buffer-file-name)))) (let ((inferred-env (conda--infer-env-from-buffer)) (env-path (cond ((and (boundp 'conda-project-env-path) conda-project-env-path) conda-project-env-path) ((not (eql inferred-env nil)) (conda-env-name-to-dir inferred-env)) (t nil)))) (if (not (eql env-path nil)) (conda-env-activate env-path) (if conda-message-on-environment-switch (message "No Conda environment found for <%s>" (buffer-file-name))))) conda-env-activate-for-buffer() (condition-case err (conda-env-activate-for-buffer) ((debug error) (message "Error: %S" err) nil)) (progn (condition-case err (conda-env-activate-for-buffer) ((debug error) (message "Error: %S" err) nil))) (if filename (progn (condition-case err (conda-env-activate-for-buffer) ((debug error) (message "Error: %S" err) nil)))) (let ((filename (buffer-file-name))) (if filename (progn (condition-case err (conda-env-activate-for-buffer) ((debug error) (message "Error: %S" err) nil))))) conda--switch-buffer-auto-activate(#) apply(conda--switch-buffer-auto-activate #)

So, it seems in that situation, the conda env detected for the commit message buffer is "/", and systematically produces the command: (conda-env-activate-path "/") causing the issue described above.

You might have a look at how I personnally addressed the issue in branch fix_improvements_yd of my fork dizzyyogi/conda.el.

Kind regards
