EPIPE error, how to get more info?

[tfenster]

Hello,

we started using VS Code for Dynamics NAV AL development using or On-Prem TFS 2017. This works well for one user, but another one gets an error stating "write EPIPE" in VS Code if I hover over the Team icon. Debug log shows the following:

How can I find more information what might be causing this? As it works for one user, but not for the other, I would guess some access rights problem, but I tried to make the identical and can't figure out what might be missing. Also, the name of the user where it doesn't work contains a german special character (ß), but hopefully that isn't a problem?

Thanks for any help,
Tobias

Hi @tfenster. Thanks for trying out the extension.

I can reproduce this on Windows if I don't specify the full filename required. On Windows, you need to run tf.cmd (not tf). tf is the script that needs to be run on macOS and Linux. Change that up and see if it works for you (I expect it will).

Hi @jeffyoung, thanks a lot, that was exactly the problem and an easy fix
