ipython cannot find pythonrc.py

[jvacek]

Type: Bug

Behaviour

When I run iPython, I get this output

Python 3.10.3 (main, Jul 25 2023, 14:36:20) [Clang 14.0.3 (clang-1403.0.22.14.1)]
Type 'copyright', 'credits' or 'license' for more information
IPython 8.28.0 -- An enhanced Interactive Python. Type '?' for help.
[TerminalIPythonApp] WARNING | File not found: '/Users/jvacek/.vscode/extensions/ms-python.python-2024.14.1-darwin-arm64/python_files/pythonrc.py'

Steps to reproduce:

• open terminal
• (auto)activate venv
• run ipython

Might be worth noting I am using a custom VSCode profile that's separate from my default?

@jvacek Can you try python extension version 2024.16.1, you might need the latest vscode version v1.94.*

[anthonykim1]

@jvacek Thanks for filing this. Can you also try turning off this shell integration setting and see if that resolves the problem?

[jvacek]

Looks like it's resolved! Didn't have to remove the shell integration settings either

[jvacek]

Looks like this has become an issue again, with and without the shell integration setting enabled.

Even with the 2024.16.1, the path there still refers to 2024.14.1.

[anthonykim1]

@jvacek Can you try killing the current terminal and restarting your terminal instance? (Try with with and without the above shell integration setting) and then run Python: Clear Cache and reload
Also wondering what happens if you launch non-IPython REPL such as via typing python or python3
Thanks again!

[jvacek]

Clear cache + reload seems to have removed the warning again, will see if I can reproduce this again somehow

[anthonykim1]

Closing this, as I've made bunch of changes which should prevent this from happening but please let me know if it ever shows up again.
