Intellisense not working properly

[functionkey-12]

Prerequisites

• I have written a descriptive issue title.
• I have searched all issues to ensure it has not already been reported.
• I have read the troubleshooting guide.
• I am sure this issue is with the extension itself and does not reproduce in a standalone PowerShell instance.
• I have verified that I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension.
• If this is a security issue, I have read the security issue reporting guidance.

Summary

Intellisense is no longer working consistently. cmdlets that have not been used earlier within the workspace will not tab-complete, or provide any information.

This is very similar to #179. As suggested in #179, I have uploaded the editorservices.log

I have disable, uninstalled, and re-installed the PowerShell extension. I have rebooted VSCode many times, and have rebooted my machine as well. No change.

Extension Version

PS 7.2.5> code --list-extensions --show-versions | Select-String powershell

ms-vscode.powershell@2022.6.1
ms-vscode.powershell-preview@2022.6.3

Steps to Reproduce

Typing get-pro will not autocomplete to any cmdlet. Instead it inserts a tab. The same happens with new-obj. Pressing ctrl+space yields no results.

However, Get-PSCallstack, which has been used earlier in the .ps1, and elsewhere in the workspace, autocompletes fine.

Hi, I can't seem to repro this, it's working fine for me:

Can you share your settings.json?

[andyleejordan]

However, Get-PSCallstack, which has been used earlier in the .ps1, and elsewhere in the workspace, autocompletes fine.

This makes me think you have editor.wordBasedSuggestions enabled (which is just Code suggesting completions based on other tokens in your open files, which is what you're describing), but I think perhaps you don't have actual LSP completions enabled, or your extension isn't correctly started.

Can you share the value of $psEditor in your integrated console?

I did have editor.wordBasedSuggestions enabled. I have turned it off, and the problem persists.

I am seeing that the language service isn't fully loading since "PowerShell Integrated Console v2022.6.1" on two different machines (albeit with settings sync) with Windows PowerShell as well as PowerShell Core 7.2.5. I believe this is preventing intellisense from functioning:

I assume Needs: Repro Info 🤔 means I need to give reproduction information.

I type in a cmdlet, or a function that is loaded into running memory and then press tab. Tab completion does not work, nor do I get any information on the cmdlet. Pressing ctrl+space does not yield any results.

Updated PowerShell extension to v2022.6.3, and there has been no change.

I do not get the same notification from the extension that tmknight gets.

[andyleejordan]

@functionkey-12 I believe your issue is simply that your extension is not starting correctly. Let's diagnose that. Can you and @tmknight both follow these steps to get us detailed logs around the startup?

[andyleejordan]

@tmknight your log points me to this code. Can you please check your setting for the initial working directory, and be certain that it a) exists and b) has open enough permissions for the extension to cd to it?

[functionkey-12]

Here are my logs. It should all logs after a restart of the application.

I continued to add new code to my workspace, and due to this New-Object now auto-completes. However, get-pr does not suggest anything.

Took some digging through settings.json, but found this to resolve my issue (now commented):
// "powershell.cwd": "",
Hard to remember if I changed it, though had no issues until the upgrade to the current PS integrated console the other day,

I just tested adding a value, then removing the value. It leaves behind in settings.json the empty value that breaks PS integrated console from completely starting...seems a bug to me that it should not allow an empty value and either remove the line completely or at least throw a warning if you clear a previously set attribute that will now break code.

[andyleejordan]

Woah, good catch @tmknight! Yes, we recently fixed the initialization sequence so that non-VS Code clients would work again, and in doing so now directly execute essentially cd <that string>. Thing is, it seemed like we wouldn't need to test that it exists, since the client checks too...but you found the edge case where the client is happy and the server is not. We'll get it fixed! Thank you for checking.
