Issue Description

When I start up VSCode the Powershell Language Server fails to load. There is an error message in the 'PowerShell Integrated Terminal" but it is erased before I can read it. I took a screenshot of this error (after many attempts) and attached in zip file. There is no useful error message in the logs, maybe this should be fixed (another bug report?).

Thanks @deathly809! Sorry for the trouble with getting that error message, the terminal is supposed to stay open for a bit on error so that you can copy it. I think I missed a case in the startup script which didn't catch this error case.

Can you give me the output of running these commands in PowerShell outside of VS Code:

Something is wrong here, the modules folder should not be empty. How did you install the extension, via the VS Code Extensions pane? Can you give me the output of this command:

gci $HOME/.vscode/extensions/ms-vscode.PowerShell-1.1.0/

I installed through VSCode.

I see the problem, it is lowercase on Linux (powershell, not PowerShell). Here is the original command with lowercase PowerShell

Hmmm, that's strange, I wonder if VS Code changed how they deal with paths when they install extensions. Thanks for pointing this out, I'll try to get it fixed soon!

By the way, was this working for you successfully in the past or is this the first time you've tried to use VS Code and the PowerShell extension on Ubuntu?

Timed out waiting for session file to appear.

I've had this behavior since I installed the extension a few weeks back and just now got around to troubleshooting it. When I run the Start-EditorServices.ps1 script from my terminal this is my output:

Notice in the output for the Start-EditorServices.ps1 script it said needs_install. If I pass the -ConfirmInstall flag to the script, I get the following output:

Install-Module : Administrator rights are required to install modules in '/usr/local/microsoft/powershell/6.0.0-alpha.15/Modules'.
Log on to the computer with an account that has Administrator rights, and then try again, or install
'/Users/jondoe/.local/share/powershell/Modules' by adding "-Scope CurrentUser" to your command. You can also try running the
Windows PowerShell session with elevated rights (Run as Administrator).

I'm puzzled as to why PowerShell is not honoring the $env:PSModulePath environment variable you're setting.

In any case, I was able to get the language service to load by making the following changes:

$pathToModule = "$HOME/.vscode/extensions/ms-vscode.PowerShell-1.1.0/modules/PowerShellEditorServices/PowerShellEditorServices.psd1"
if ((Test-ModuleAvailable $pathToModule -RequiredVersion $parsedVersion) -eq $false) {
    if ($ConfirmInstall -and $isPS5orLater) {
        # TODO: Check for error and return failure if necessary
        Install-Module "PowerShellEditorServices" -RequiredVersion $parsedVersion -Confirm -Scope CurrentUser
    }
    else {
        # Indicate to the client that the PowerShellEditorServices module
        # needs to be installed
        Write-Output "needs_install"
    }
}

if ($isPS5orLater) {
    Import-Module $pathToModule -RequiredVersion $parsedVersion -ErrorAction Stop
}
else {
    Import-Module $pathToModule -Version $parsedVersion -ErrorAction Stop
}

Specifically, I'm passing the path to the module into the Test-ModuleAvailable and Import-Module function calls.

One issue I'm still experiencing is that the integrated console does not load on the first attempt; it just hangs indefinitely. I have to Restart Current Session to get it to load.

Hope this helps in correcting the issue permanently.

Ahh! Sorry guys, I just realized what the problem is. You both need to upgrade to PowerShell 6.0.0-alpha.18 or higher. I'd recommend 6.0.0-beta.1. Once you install that version of PowerShell everything should start working.

Closing this issue for now since I think a PowerShell Core upgrade fixes the issue. If this is not the case, let me know and I'll reopen for investigation. Thanks!
