Cannot run extension C/C++: "Starting client failed" #2970
Description
Issue Type: Bug
The extension C/C++ cannot be run after upgrading to version 0.21.0-insiders2.
The last version (0.21.0) runs well.
Way to reproduce:
- Upgrade the extension C/C++ to version 0.21.0-insiders2 (which may be performed automatically by VSCode - Insiders);
- Reload the window when VSCode informs you of that the extension has been upgraded and requires you to do so.
- VSCode will pop up two messages, which read:
Unable to start the C/C++ language server. IntelliSense features will be disabled. Error: Error: spawn UNKNOWN
and
Couldn't start client cpptools: Codes
while in the output window there appears the information of the error:
[Error - 下午4:51:09] Starting client failed
Error: spawn UNKNOWN
at ChildProcess.spawn (internal/child_process.js:357:11)
at Object.spawn (child_process.js:540:9)
