I am trying to communicate vs code docker container with Julia (vs code development containers)  
in my devcontainer.json I have

```julia
	"settings": { 
		"julia.executablePath" : "/usr/local/bin/julia",
         ...
	"extensions": [
		"julialang.language-julia"
        ...

```

additionally when I execute /usr/local/bin/julia in bash it opens Julia correctly and all works as supposed to  
Hovewer when I try to execute snippet of code (shift+enter) in vscode I get error  
Could not start the Julia language server. Make sure the `julia.executablePath` setting points to the Julia binary.  
What am I doing wrong? (
