VS Code DBT Extension Registration Message Won't Go Away

Help
1

Often times when I restart my computer and launch VS Code to use dbt I get a warning message that says “You must register and verify your email address to continue using the dbt extension.” When this happens I click the Register Now button which launches a browser and takes me to dbt.com. After I log in, it asks me to select an account from one named after my company and one called Snowflake Partner Connect. It doesn’t seem to matter which of these I select. After doing so I get a message that says “Success! Your dbt extension is now active.”

Is there a way to make this message go away permanently so I don’t have reregister every day!

Oof. I have the same issue. Not sure if this is the same for you, but I am connecting to a project in WSL on my machine.

Nope. We’re on Windows 11.

Can you share your extension version? Our eng team is investigating. Thank you!

You should find them in c:\users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Code\User\globalStorage\dbtlabsinc.dbt\logs

You can also click on the dbt Extension status bar item, which will bring up a console message that should contain the LSP executable path. The logs are a sibling of the bin directory.

2 things.

  1. I am connecting to a repo in a remote workspace (WSL) on my computer and I dont see that directory on the windows side. Maybe it is somewhere on the WSL side?
  2. It usually says that I dont have an lsp running, but this is going on forever:

I don’t think we’ve ever tested using a remote workspace using WSL. I wonder if VSCode runs the extension in the within WSL. I’ll need to test that out and get back to you!

If you’re using something other than VSCode (Like Cursor), the logs might also not be in the “Code” folder, but something like “Cursor”

Dakota, I can’t post the logs online because it might not be okay with my company. Is there a different way we can communicate about this? My company pays for dbt licenses. Thanks!
