Error: Socket connect timed out after 20 seconds

[anpatton]

Hi all,

I'm having issues with "Run Python File in Console" where I get a "Error: Socket connect timed out after 20 seconds". If I use the dropdown to run it in terminal it runs fine, although about 10x as slow as it should.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Andrew

Thanks for the report Andrew. Are you able to start a Python console in Positron at all, in any other context? Could you please share your CPU specs?

I suspect that it's taking longer than our current timeout window (20 seconds) to boot up the kernel. If so, we should probably bump that a bit more.

CPU Specs: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1185G7 @ 3.00GHz (This is my normal work computer for daily python/R dev work)

I can start them, but they either hang or throw that red error. My python is 3.10 via Miniconda. Also, If I go to the Positron terminal window (pwsh for me) and run "python", that works no issue and fires up right away.

That seems more than powerful enough! Something else must be going wrong.

1. Could you please share the full output logs? You can open them using Ctrl+Shift+p and running the "Interpreter: Show interpreter output" command. You can include them as a gist or directly here wrapped in a <details></details> tag so that it's easier to read.
2. As a very rough test, what happens if you run just C: \Users\andrew.patton\Anaconda3\envs\tester\python.exe in the terminal? Does it open the ordinary REPL? How long does it take?
