So I recently updated my Mac to iOS Ventura. Since then I am unable to type "code ." into my terminal to open vs code in whatever directory I am in. The error I get is:
/usr/local/bin/code: line 6: python: command not found /usr/local/bin/code: line 10: ./MacOS/Electron: No such file or directory
I saw a solution here and the same one somewhere else.
However, when I try was in /usr/local/bin and typed "nano code" I was unable to edit the file. I got the error [ cannot open file for writing: read-only file system ]. I also tried dragging the file into VS code but I had a similar read/write issue. I am also unable to edit the permissions when I right click on the file and hit "get info". There is no option to edit. I also tried changing the permissions on that file using chmod to no avail. It's driving me nuts that I don't have read/write permission for files on my own computer. Does anyone have an idea of how I can have writing permissions on this file?
I do know for the /usr/local/bin/code: line 6: python: command not found you can run sudo vim /usr/local/bin/code and then add 3 to the end of python on this line function realpath() { python<3> -c "import... I guess the new mac update does not support python 2 anymore so you have to specify 3. Still looking into the line 10 error. If I figure it out I will post here again.

I have been encountering this issue for a while an haven't been able to find a specific solution to my unique problem. Some context for my issue is that I have been using cd to get into the directory that I want to open up in vscode and once I am inside the directory I used the command line to open VSCode using code . However, whenever I use this command, VSCode opens up with the folder name view on the left side however none of the files are retrieved. Additionally, an error message is being outputted in my CLI saying the following:
shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Operation not permitted
job-working-directory: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Operation not permitted
Some solutions that I have seen to this error are that I am changing directories into a directory that no longer exists; However, this is not the case with the directory I am in because I can still see it in my finder (I am using the documents path). Some other solutions that I saw were to kill my terminal and try again but that also didn't work. Some background is that I am on Mac OS Monterey M1 Chip and on VSCode version 1.67.2. Here are some pictures that might aid in helping me solve this problem

If anyone has any insight that may be of use I would greatly appreciate it!
I have a very annoying problem in my VScode setup.
I'm using WSL as a terminal to work on my projects and occasionally, mistype the name of one of the folder or file that I'm working with.
For example:
I accidentally created the Mainheader.js file in layout folder (without the capitalized L) therefore, I decided to rename the folder with a capital L.
Now on my React app, any changes made to MainHeader.js file will not be reflected. I did update the related import.
So I decided to delete the entire folder and recreate it with MainHeader.js but this is what I end up with.
The file is there in my folder but when I click on it, I get
"Unable to open Mainheader.js - File not found"
So I try to create it then I get this error:
Unable to create file 'wsl\path]to\MainHeader.js' that already exists when overwrite flag is not set
Has anyone run into this type of behavior in WSL before? It's quite annoying because the only workaround I've found so far is to create a completely different folder with a different name...
Any help would be appreciated. I can't really work like this.
I've been having the same problem for the past 2 days. I presume its a permissions issue, but unfortunately I don't know how to permanently fix it.
I did find this work-around though:
Open a new VS Code window. (I'd recommend closing any VS Code window that had
your project directory open.)
Create a duplicate or copy the contents of the problem file so you don't lose
your code.
Delete the problem file.
Now create the file again using VS Code. Go to File > New Text File. Next paste
in your code.
Now save your new file. Go to File > Save As and save your new file with at the same path + filename + extension that was giving you problems previously. VS Code should allow you to save the new file without any issue.
Now you can open this new VS Code window to your project directory and you should be able to continuing accessing the file that was a problem before.
Basically we just deleted the problem file and then created it again from scratch in a new VS Code window.
Hope this work-around works for you!

Following Baza86's answer here solved the issue for me. Seems like it was a permissions issue of sorts, but if you use the Remote-WSL extension VS code can directly access the linux filesystem.
How to run VScode in sudo mode in WSL2?
You may need add the case option to you options in the wsl config. The default is set to off, however you can set this to off, dir or force.
Open your wsl.conf using sudo with any text editor while running window subsystem Linux. The config file resides in /etc/wsl.conf. This file is used to configure settings per-distribution for Linux distros running on WSL 1 or WSL 2.
My default config looked like this yours may be different:
[automount]
options = "metadata"
add
[automount]
options = "metadata,case=dir"
Here is the official Microsoft docs for Advanced settings configuration in WSL - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/wsl-config
Trying to add path to locate flutter so 'flutter doctor' can be run, to solve zsh: command not found: flutter,
then I found that creating below is first step to solution, but again terminal says nano ~/.bash_profile zsh: command not found: nano
then trying to create bash profile also not working, may be it's existing, but somehow it says below.
$HOME/.bash_profile
zsh: permission denied: /Users/prettygirl/.bash_profile
terminal is given full file access in macOS
restarted my macmini
vscode quitted and restarted,
terminal quitted and restarted
problem still persists. Is there any way to add path variables easily than going through all this hassle with terminal? like macos menu or something to add system path variables?
You're trying to open your bash_profile using nano (text editor) which you don't have installed. You can open that file using any text editor you have. Also, I see you're using zsh and not bash, this means that you should actually edit your ~/.zshrc or ~/.zprofile instead and add
PATH=</path/to/flutter>:$PATH
where you replace </path/to/flutter> with the actual path to flutter on your machine. You can do this if you don't want to add it manually:
echo 'export PATH=</path/to/flutter>:$PATH' >> ~/.zshrc && source ~/.zshrc
again, replacing </path/to/flutter> with your actual flutter path.
This is the only thing that worked for me.
Go to where your flutter folder is and right-click, get info, and copy where the path then paste it in the YOUR_PATH part below.
Open the .zshrc file using the command: nano ~/.zshrc,
Now add the following to the file: export PATH="$PATH:/YOUR_PATH/flutter/bin/"
Save the file by pressing Control + X followed by Enter.
Apply the changes by command: source ~/.zshrc
I am simply trying to install swift on linux
I have downloaded the files from swift.org, extracted .tar files and used export command to include the path after that when I use swift --version it correctly shows the version 5.3.3 but when I close the terminal and try to open the swift command terminal it says command not found.
What is happening here? I need to include the path every time I open the terminal.
The export command just adds the value to path for the current session. When you log out and in again, it will reset.
You need to add this to your shell resource file so that it gets added to the path every time you log in. The file you need to edit will be called .zshrc or .bash_profile or something similar. You should start by opening the command line on your computer and verifying what shell you are running by typing:
echo $SHELL
This will return something like /bin/ksh or /bin/bash or similar. Then do a little internet searching to find out what the resource file is called for that shell. Then edit your resource file to add the Swift path to your $PATH.
I've been a long time user of notepad++ and I enjoy it a lot, but a friend recently recommended me to use Atom, so I gave it a try. However, when I try to save anything in my project folder (or any file at all), I receive this message that I am unable to save file: permission denied.
I've tried typing the command sudo atom /path/to/file in my PowerShell for Windows, but I get the following message:
I understand that sudo is a Linux-based command and thus would not work in a Windows environment but would there be an alternative route to get Atom working on my machine?
Thanks a lot!
The files were made "Read Only" somehow (maybe your anti-virus software or something, who knows...).
Solution:
Go to the folder in the Explorer, highlight all of the files in your project. Right click, open the properties. Deselect "Read-Only" and push ok. When it asks if you would like to apply to only the selected files or also to the files in any sub-folders, click yes if you need to.
This should fix your problem.
