Hi Kyle! Logs show there is a symlink and we do some path updating in that case to fix issues caused by the symlink we have seen in the past. To confirm is
Symlink found at: /home/kyle/Dropbox (GaTech)a symlink? What does it map to if so? When you try this same thing from the command line is it found correct and everything? The equivalent command would be:python -m pytest --collect-only "--rootdir=~/Dropbox (GaTech)/projects/cleo"Finally if it works right from the command line, could you try printing the python path before the erroring import in your conftest.py file? Specifically looking to see if the rootdir is in it as expected or not. The code to do this would bealso go jackets (im a GT alum)

Hi Eleanor, thanks for getting back.
~/Dropbox (GaTech)is a symlink to~/GaTech Dropbox/Kyle Johnsen/$HOMEinstead of~) collected all the tests without a problemsys.path:sys.executableand it was indeed wrong—/home/kyle/miniforge3/bin/python—using my base conda environment instead of the selected interpreter for this workspace (~/miniforge3/envs/cleo/bin/python)Go Jackets!
eleanorjboyd commentedon Oct 1, 2024
Anthony Kim (@anthonykim1), looks like the issue here is the right environment is not being selected, this is likely related to the other issues we have seen with conda env activation. This investigation should help solve this issue as well: #24190. Thanks!

With #24190 fixed can you test Kyle Johnsen (@kjohnsen) whether this issue persists?
anthonykim1 commentedon Dec 9, 2024
I think this shouldve been fixed with mentioned PRs, but please let us know if you are still suffering from this. Thanks
kjohnsen commentedon Dec 11, 2024
Yes, it's working now. Thank you.
