Tekton.edit error when clicking on the "Open in Editor" icon

[lstocchi]

i get this error

when clicking on any of the Open in Editor icon you find on the right of a tree item

By clicking on the name of the resource works fine so it's just the icon

That strange, I use that command every day and never see that error, can you provide additional information?

[lstocchi]

@evidolob I made some test and found out that if the server connector extension is installed i get this error, otherwise it works fine. It would be great if you could install https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=redhat.vscode-server-connector and try to replicate it. If we both have this kind of issue, we can try to investigate about it and maybe have an idea if it happens again in future. Or maybe we need to change something in the code. I worked on the server connector extension so if there is something wrong i can handle it immediately.

I install server connector and Open in Editor still works.
Error that you describe is very strange, that can happen only in if tekton extension is not register handler for tekton.edit command, it can be but, rest of extension should not work either.
Can you look in Log (Extension Host) in 'Output' view, maybe there some errors

[lstocchi]

What if you uninstall tekton extenstion and then reinstall it (with the server connector already installed)? Still works fine for you?

BTW yeah it's very strange.

[evidolob]

I usually don't have tecton extension installed, I use it from dev mode. But for your ask, I test both cases, first install server connector then run dev mode with tekton extension - all work. Then install tekton extension from marketplace and test then all work also.

[evidolob]

Btw, I don't have any server running/installed for server connector, maybe that the case?

[lstocchi]

I looked in the Log (Extension Host). Nothing wrong apparently.
I don't know what is the issue, i'll keep investigating and let you know if i discover something.

I don't think it is related to having any server installed. I don't start any rsp server. Just open vscode, go to the tekton tab and click on "open in editor" icon of some random resource. No idea seriously.

[lstocchi]

Closing this for the moment and i'll reopen it if i have some more info. Thanks @evidolob

I also install server connector and start server but not getting an error while opening the editor from the icon.

[lstocchi]

I had some time to look into this and i found something. There are still some aspects which i need to clarify like "why did it work when i remove server connector?". Maybe i was playing with intellij or i was on Windows, i don't remember but i'll keep investigating.

BTW back to the issue. If i remove tekton from the path the extension use (in my case ~/.vs-tekton/tkn), it will ask me if i want to download and install it

The problem is that the code is stuck on this popup (if i don't click on anything) and it doesn't register any command.

response = await vscode.window.showInformationMessage(
            `Cannot find Tekton CLI ${ToolsConfig.tool['tkn'].versionRangeLabel} for interacting with Tekton Pipelines.`, installRequest, 'Help', 'Cancel');

but i can correctly see and navigate the tree

so if i try to execute any command (in my case opening the config of a resource), i get the error message
