Spyder: TypeError: handle_get_file_code() got an unexpected keyword argument 'save_all'

[mmahdavian]

I get following error when I want to run any code in spyder in Anaconda.Do you know how can I resolve this?!:

This command failed to be executed because an error occurred while trying to get the file code from Spyder's editor. The error was:


An exception has occurred, use %tb to see the full traceback.

Hey @mmahdavian, please update to Spyder 4.1.5 and try again. That should fix your problem.

[RobertDabbler]

Updating to 4.1.5 is what caused the problem, for me. And it isn't fixed by downgrading back to 4.1.3 where I was before.
Uninstalling Anaconda entirely and reinstalling didn't work either. Now Spyder won't even launch--but still insists it is running when I try to shut down Anaconda.

This happened to three of my computers as well. I fixed it by completely uninstalling anaconda and reinstalling the latest version. Not a great solution but it worked for me.

This sounds related to #13679 .

I was hit by this, and was able to fix it by installing spyder-kernels==1.9.3. I'm on spyder==4.1.2.

[ccordoba12]

This problem is solved by running

conda install spyder-kernels=1.9.4

Same thing happened to me in a pip3 environment. Reinstalling spyder-kernels worked for me (1.9.4 is the latest on pypi).

This problem is solved by running

conda install spyder-kernels=1.9.4

I have got the issue but this solution did not solve the problem

[simaoafonso-pwt]

I was hit by this, and was able to fix it by installing spyder-kernels==1.9.3

Note that the workaround for spyder==4.1.2 is downgrading to this specific version.

[theinexorable]

Spyder: 4.1.4
spyder-kernels: 1.9.4
Python 3.7.7 64-bit | Qt 5.9.6 | PyQt5 5.9.2 | Windows 10

So I'm trying to debug a file. With F9 (Run selection) it runs, but with F5 (Run file) or Ctrl+F5 (Debug file) the same error occurs. Now reading these comments I'm not sure whether I should downgrade spyder-kernels or Spyder.

For more context, I'm trying to import several packages AND a custom one, which is still in development, from a working directory.

@theinexorable, Spyder 4.1.4 works with spyder-kernels 1.9.3, not with 1.9.4

update to the new version, its work for me
conda install spyder=4.1.5

[eusebiomarquesbenitez]

edit the File spydercustomize.py:
lib/python3.7/site-packages/spyder_kernels/customize/spydercustomize.py", line 463, in get_file_code function:
file_code = frontend_request().get_file_code(
filename, save_all=save_all)
to:
file_code = frontend_request().get_file_code(filename)
