We merged a potential fix for this issue yesterday. Could you try install

vscode-java-dependency-0.21.2023030301.vsix.zip

And let us know if the problem get resolved?

@jdneo sorry it's not working after installing the fix. Is this a new issue? I didn't have any issues several days ago. I just realized my old pc cannot open the tasks menu too with this extension.

[rockingdice]

• It's not stuck but extremely slow on my old pc. It's downloading the necessary Gradle dependencies. After it's done the menu shows up.
  So I wonder if it should not make the users wait because we don't always work with Java projects. There are a lot of other tasks too.
  On my new pc, the menu won't show up anymore. Because there's no JDK installed.

[jdneo]

Ok, so it turns out that waiting for the LS being ready is not ideal.

We should just catch the error when we send the requests to LS but LS is not ready.

@CsCherrYY is working on it now.

Hi @rockingdice
It would be great if you could try this bit with the new fix, and let us know if the problem is fixed.
vscode-java-dependency-0.21.2023030900.vsix.zip

Thank you!

@jdneo it works after the patch is installed, thank you for your effort!
