Add-AzureRmAccount doesn't work in VS Code

[pcgeek86]

The Add-AzureRmAccount (with no parameters) command doesn't pop up the expected login dialog, and hangs the Output window.

In the PowerShell ISE, the login dialog appears correctly:

Strange, I'll take a look.

So it looks like if you set a break point to the line that follows then things seem to work. In my case if I did the following I could get the dialog to pop and everything else worked. If I don't set the break point then everything seems to hang.

Login-AzureRmAccount
Set-AzureRmContext -SubscriptionId $SubId <- Set break point here

Sounds like a duplicate for issue #149. This should be fixed in 0.6.0.

[daviwil]

Yep, sounds like that issue. Trying to get 0.6.0 out ASAP.

I've verified that this is now fixed in the upcoming 0.6.0 release. I'll close this bug as soon as the update has been shipped.

I'm still seeing the issue with Login-AzureRmAccount not prompting for login credentials unless I have a break on the following line. I'm using VSCode 1.4 with PowerShell Extension version 0.6.2 on Windows 10.

@legobytes - could you raise this as a new issue and reference this one by using the issue number #155
