hashicorp.terraform 2.9.0 failed to install with "ENOENT: no such file or directory" error.

See original GitHub issue

I’m getting this output in Log (shared) in VSCode (version: 1.54.3) when v2.9.0 tries to install. The error is reproducible using the [Update to 2.9.0] button in the Extensions panel. I have not attempted the VSIX installer. I tried creating the extension folder manually just to see if the install could get any further to no avail.

Any suggestions?

The suggestion is that whoever built this VSIX file and hard-coded the path to their own user profile into the distribution will need to re-build it and stage it for distribution:

ENOENT: no such file or directory, mkdir ‘c:\Users\{username}\.vscode\extensions.hashicorp.terraform-2.9.0\file:\Users\aeschright\code\vscode-terraform\lsp’

I’m sure that AESCHRIGHT will fix this, if this is indeed the problem.
