Selected Kernel does not point to the right interpreter

Just to confirm that Jupyter uses the wrong python, which is confirmed by

import sys
print(sys.executable)
! which python

For me the output of the above prints:

/usr/bin/python3
/home/user/venv/bin/python

It should be the same! These is some mess with switching between python versions by the extension. Somehow switching to old and already deleted environments make it work. That makes extension totally unusable...

The problem is present on versions:
v2021.5.702919634
v2021.6.732501275

update: sometimes it randomly starts to work...

Please could you provide the following information:

• VS Code version: XXX
• Jupyter Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): XXX
• Python Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): XXX
• OS (Windows | Mac | Linux distro) and version: XXX
• Python and/or Anaconda version: XXX
• Type of virtual environment used (N/A | venv | virtualenv | conda | ...): XXX
• Attempt to repro the issue & then copy the output from the Jupyter output panel.

I think I see the same issue:

@bardal Thanks for the feedback:

• Are you using notebooks or interactive window?
• Please could you re-load VS Code, run the same code in a cell and prvide the following:
  • Cell Output
  • Output from the Jupyter output panel (you might have to copy th eoutput to a text file & upload that text file)
  • What kernel did you pick (i.e. what were you expecting to see)
  • Screenshots
    • With the cell output
    • With the kernel displayed in the bottom right

I'm sorry you're running into this and would appreciate the replying with the above info, I'd like to unblock you and others running into this.

I am loading a .ipynb in Visual Studio Code - not sure if that means notebooks or interactive window!

Jupyter Cell:
import sys
print(sys.version)
print(sys.executable)

3.8.6 (tags/v3.8.6:db45529, Sep 23 2020, 15:52:53) [MSC v.1927 64 bit (AMD64)]
C:\Program Files\Python38\python.exe

I selected reporting_env as the kernel

Thanks for the information,
Is reporting_env a conda environment?

not sure if that means notebooks or interactive window!

This is a notebook. Thanks

[bardal]

reporting_env is a standard Python venv (not conda).

[DonJayamanne]

Thanks for providing the information.

Unfortunately this is on a work PC so I won't be able to install VS Code Insiders.

FYI - In VS Code Insiders, you'll get the new Notebook UI & I believe this has been resolved there (See here for more information https://devblogs.microsoft.com/python/notebooks-are-getting-revamped/).

Still reproes

Validated. Lots of different ways to set up environments, but works with my venv.
