vscode-wakatime: Using wrong wakatime-cli binary file name on Linux arm64

Hello,

I’m experiencing unexpected behavior in my vscode with the wakatime extension. I have confirmed that my API key is correct. The log in the home directory is empty.

Repro is to just install the extension, input your API key and get it to attempt to sync.

VSCode console says the following:

[WakaTime][ERROR] /home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: 1: /home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: �7@8@@@@@@��@@@@�u�u: not found/home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: 1: /home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: ��: not found/home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: 1: /home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: ��@@DDP�td�e�e@�e@ttQ�td/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2GNU: not found/home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: 1: /home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: +Pz: not found/home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: 1: /home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: cannot create E@@�u�uXHzlibdl.so.2_ITM_deregisterTMCloneTable__gmon_start___Jv_RegisterClasses_ITM_registerTMCloneTabledlsymdlopendlerrorlibz.so.1inflateinflateInit_inflateEndlibc.so.6__stpcpy_chk__xpg_basenamemkdtempfflushstrcpyfchmodreaddirsetlocalefopenwcsncpystrncmp__strdupperrorclosedirftellsignalstrncpymbstowcsforkunlinkmkdirstdingetpidkillstrtokfeofcallocstrlenmemsetdirnamermdirfseekclearerrunsetenv__fprintf_chkstdoutstrnlenfclose__vsnprintf_chkmallocstrcatrealpathraise__strncpy_chknl_langinfoopendirgetenvstderr__snprintf_chk__strncat_chkexecvpstrncat__realpath_chkfilenofwritefreadwaitpidstrchr__vfprintf_chk__strcpy_chk__xstat__strcat_chksetbufstrcmp__libc_start_mainferrorstpcpyfreeGLIBC_2.2.5GLIBC_2.3GLIBC_2.4GLIBC_2.3.4: File name too long/home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: 1: /home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: ELF: not found/home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: 1: /home/simtoon/.wakatime/wakatime-cli/wakatime-cli: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")

Furthermore, it reports the following:

At the end, it says this:

As I said, the log mentioned above is empty.

I found the problem, it’s because the legacy wakatime-cli doesn’t support arm! You should enable the new Go wakatime-cli with this line in your ~/.wakatime.cfg file:

new_beta_cli = true

Also, make sure to update the extension to v14.0.3 (latest version in the marketplace released Today) and restart VS Code.

Can you see if that fixes it for you?

I pulled from origin and rebuilt, then copied the extension to the vscode dir. Still the same problem, it seems. Even the output is identical.

(except for the two console.log’s we added)
