Vscode-extension-for-zowe: VS Code on RedHat fails to load profile

[ehrocha]

Hi , I have added my zowe/bright profile and can do all sorts of things (listing DS, issuing commands etc) from the command line but when I try to add the profile to VSCODE it says :
Must have user & password OR base64 encoded credentials.

Any Ideas on how I can go about to test this ?

If I go see the zowe plugin logs I see:

@ChrisBoehmCA, are you aware of any recent changes that may have impacted this? I'm suspecting it might be related to https://github.com/zowe/zowe-cli/pull/172

[ChrisBoehmCA]

Mike you're probably right. I'll look into fixing this if I can. Sorry for the issue

[ChrisBoehmCA]

@ehrocha Could you please try installing 0.8.3 of the extension and see if that solves your issue? Just published.

[gcartier94]

I'm having this issue with version 0.8.3, but version 0.8.1 seems to be okay.

My OS is RHEL 7.5
My Zowe CLI version is 2.0

@gcartier94 Hi, sorry you're having the issue. Could you update your Zowe CLI to the latest version (npm i -g @brightside/core@next if you're using the online registry installation method), and then for each profile you want to use with the CLI or VS Code extension, issue a command like this:

zowe profiles update zosmf profilenamehere --password yourpassword

This should hopefully resolve the issues you're having

@ChrisBoehmCA ,

That worked, thanks!
