Trouble with using tensorboard extension with remote SSH (timeout)

Hi guys,

My VSCode encounterred a problem when using the tensorboard extension.

Situation

After press Ctrl+Shift+P and launch the tensorboard, VSC seems loading forever and reports a timeout of 60s. I’m using tensorboard extension together with the SSH remote (I’m developing on a server with SSH remote extension).

Several Attempts

• First I changed the conda env, but in vain.
• I also tried to use ssh terminal with tensorboard --logdir ., and it reported that ‘absl’ is missing. However, I checked via conda list and I’m pretty sure I’ve installed absl-py.
• Just before things went wrong, the tensorboard extention worked fine. I changed a few lines in my .bashrc trying to modified the setting of CUDA. But I still cannnot get the extension work after changing the file back to origin.

Info might be useful

I actually encountered this problem earlier this year in other conda env. I installed tensorboard extension according to the VSC pop up window(tiny tips in right-buttom). Then it worked. But I now can hardly remember what command VSC input to the terminal. Maybe redo the line may help?

My Environment

Remote:

• Ubuntu 20.04
• tensorboard 2.9.1
• absl-py 1.1.0
• numpy 1.19.5

Thanks!

Yes the module absl is missing (or at least it’s not found in the sys path). That’s why it times out, it doesn’t actually start.
