Error in vscode in Windows when trying to use any package

sbacelar · March 29, 2021, 10:30am

I can’t understand this new error after updating to Julia v1.6. When I try in the REPL inside vscode a command like using Agents or even using Plots I receive the following message. This does not happen in vscode on my Mac. Only on Windows.
If I only use the REPL on Windows outside vscode there is no error.

Did you check which environment is active in the Julia REPL in VSCode? We’re automatically activating the first workspace dir if it’s a Julia env.
Also, did you try the suggested solution?

sbacelar · March 29, 2021, 10:44am

In vscode I got the message that I am in v1.6 environment. But in fact I keep receiving the message You opened a Julia package that is not part of your current environment. Do you want to activate a different environment?
I tried to do instantiate but without success as you can see:

You could try to update the project, it would then change the entries in the manifest to point to embedded jll lib inside 1.6 folder if this is one that would be needed? (There are new jll that are now embedded in 1.6 stdlibs that were not previously)

pfitzseb · March 29, 2021, 10:51am

Right, you can’t use the same Manifest in Julia 1.6 and previous verisons.

sbacelar · March 29, 2021, 11:00am

On julia\environment I did mv v1.5 v1.6. Is this right?

jdad · March 29, 2021, 11:06am

Yes, even if cp -a v1.5 v1.6 would probably have been better (would have kept v1.5 project defaults packages). But anyway you need to to an update of the project, or alternatively rm -f v1.6/Manifest.toml then instantiate (only difference is that you would loose pined indications and deved packages)

sbacelar · March 29, 2021, 11:08am

Sorry, how can I update the project?

jdad · March 29, 2021, 11:14am

Either type ]up<Enter> (then <Backspace> to exit Pkg mode), or import Pkg; Pkg.update() should do the thing.

sbacelar · March 29, 2021, 11:26am

Sorry, I didn’t understood. Of course. Now it works! Thanks.
