These steps describe how to view and collect the log files for the following JetBrains IDEs:

  • IntelliJ IDEA
  • Android Studio
  • GoLand
  • PhpStorm
  • PyCharm
  • RubyMine
  • WebStorm

The GitHub Copilot extension logs to the IDEA log location for IntelliJ plugins.

  1. In your JetBrains IDE, open the Help menu.
  2. Go to Show Log in Finder.
  3. Open the idea.log in your preferred editor and look for any errors related to GitHub or GitHub Copilot.

Viewing and collecting log files

The log files for the GitHub Copilot extension are stored in the standard log location for Visual Studio Code extensions. The log files are useful for diagnosing connection issues.

  1. Open the View menu in Visual Studio Code.
  2. Click Output.
  3. On the right of the Output view pane, select GitHub Copilot from the dropdown menu.

Alternatively, you can open the log folder for Visual Studio Code extensions in your system's file explorer. This is useful if you need to forward the log files to the support team.

  1. Open the VS Code Command Palette
    • For Mac:
      • Use: Shift+Command+P
    • For Windows or Linux:
      • Use: Ctrl+Shift+P
  2. Type "Logs", and then select Developer: Open Extension Logs Folder from the list.

Viewing network connectivity diagnostics logs

If you encounter problems connecting to GitHub Copilot due to network restrictions, firewalls, or your proxy setup, use the following troubleshooting steps.

  1. Open the VS Code Command Palette
    • For Mac:
      • Use: Shift+Command+P
    • For Windows or Linux:
      • Use: Ctrl+Shift+P
  2. Type "Diagnostics", and then select GitHub Copilot: Collect Diagnostics from the list. This opens a new editor with the relevant information that you can inspect yourself or share with the support team.
  3. Check the section on Reachability to determine if GitHub Copilot can actually access the necessary services.

Viewing Electron logs

In rare cases, errors might not be propagated to the corresponding error handlers and are not logged in the regular locations. If you encounter errors and there is nothing in the logs, you may try to see the logs from the process running VS Code and the extension.

  1. Open the VS Code Command Palette

    • For Mac:
      • Use: Shift+Command+P
    • For Windows or Linux:
      • Use Ctrl+Shift+P

  2. Type "Toggle", and then select Developer: Toggle Developer Tools from the list.

  3. In the Developer Tools window, select the Console tab to see any errors or warnings.
