STRIPE CLI VS CODE EXTENSION NOT LOGGING ME IN

[shar27]

Hi,

I am able to login to the stripe cli and I am able to perform the commands but my stripe vs code extension keeps asking me to install. Is this a known bug?

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the extension and I have tried doing the same for VS code. However, it is still asking me to install it.

The extension even says that is enabled globally

Hi Shar, the extension should automatically pick up the default location of the extension but it's possible it cannot find it. There is an extension setting called Stripe: Cli Install Path, can you try adding the path of the cli executable there?

For example, mine is set to /Users/gracegoo/go/src/github.com/stripe/stripe-cli/stripe

[shar27]

this is the path

C:\Users\Owner\strapi\stripe.exe

I added that

but i get this error
You set a custom installation path for the Stripe CLI, but we couldn't find the executable in 'c:\Users\Owner\strapi\stripe'

Hello @shar27 ,
I got the same problem as you and I just resolved it.

I created a folder, and I unziped my exe into it,

So my absolute path is C:\Stripe\stripe_1.9.0_windows_x86_64\stripe.exe

I copy & paste it like this without quotes and it worked

@GalaxHD551 thanks for assisting with the issue, I think you're pointing out the problem which is that .exe extension is needed on the end of the custom install path, as you're both using Windows. Could you please try that @shar27 and let us know if it resolves your problem?

For Macs when you 'unzip', the resulting 'executable' is a unix file with no extension so VS Code still cant find it. Any overrides for this?

@suz-stripe It actually works well when we set Cli install Path to stripe.exe.
But in most case, we used to specify the route to the folder the file exist.
