Can no longer find config file from 1.24.5+

[Sverri]

Describe the bug

Yesterday the extension (1.24.4) worked.

Today it does not (1.24.5 and 1.24.6). These two version are not able to find the configuration file.

Nothing has changed since yesterday (same editor configs, same project config files, etc.).

Reproduction

Open VSCode and bring up the "Testing" sidebar.

The error in the output mentions the "vitest" terminal. What is in that terminal?

[tkfalarz]

This is actual terminal output. Having same problem, vitest version 3.1.4, extension version: 1.24.6

[sheremet-va]

This is actual terminal output. Having same problem, vitest version 3.1.4, extension version: 1.24.6

What “this”? The issue only shows the “output” logs, not the terminal output.

The author copy-pasted the content of the terminal output. See:

The author copy-pasted the content of the terminal output. See:

This is not the terminal, this is the output log channel. The terminal is in another tab (the tab is visible in your screenshot)

This error opens a new terminal window with logs that cannot be intercepted to show in the output

[vladimir-kovalenko]

The same issue here. Spent half of the day figuring out what is triggering the problem. For now, just rolled back the extension. Moreover, vitest creates a terminal for each config file. It was not like this before. At least no terminals were left open. Also when VS Code is opened, it starts executing commands. For each command, a new Terminal is created.

Same here

So the terminal window is empty for me.

The terminal is open only if it failed to load. Please show the terminal output if you have a problem described in the issue.

I have similar problem.
The terminal output looks just like (I hope that it is what was requested):

Yes, thank you! This is a stellar report.

[sheremet-va]

I think I have found the issue and working on fixing it.
