Hi,

I’m using Julia 1.6.2 on ubuntu 20.04.3 with vscode 1.61.1. I have a problem with starting Julia in vscode. Every time I try to run Julia, I get these errors in vscode (attached as screenshot). Also, it takes several minutes (and sometimes forever) to run a block in my code (using `alt + Enter`). All in all I cannot run my codes in Julia properly.

That’s what I tried:  
\*Check if the executable directory is defined in vs code which is available.

\*Add “LanguageServer” package.

This is the messages I get every time I run julia in my vscode:

 ![Vscode_Error](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/julialang/original/3X/c/4/c4fc532dadbf94bda9cda3bbf4dfdbf1e6b57d13.png)

The message `signal (6): Aborted` keeps showing up as long as I use julia which leads to allcocate almost 6gb of the ram for only julia without running anything heavy in computation.

 ![Vscode_Error2](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/julialang/original/3X/c/e/ce24d7599dea5b0262c9668a759b27ab8c4712cb.png)

I don’t even know why there should be a “julialang.language-julia-1.4.3” folder while I have julia version 1.6.2.

I would appreciate if someone can help me with this.
