VSCode Error: The terminal process failed to launch: Path to shell executable "/usr/bin/tmux" does not exist

I solved this issue by changing by default shell for vs-code with following steps:

1. Open settings-search in VSCode with Cntr + Shift + p
2. Search for default
3. clicked Terminal: Select Default Shell
4. clicked zsh /usr/bin/zsh, I selected zsh as I recently installed it and like to use it, you can use other terminal options as well.

Thank you.

I had the same issue. I resolved it by changing the path of "terminal.integrated.shell.linux" in the settings.json file. Link : https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/supporting/troubleshoot-terminal-launch

The option "terminal.integrated.shell.linux" is deprecated.

The new VSCode config is (mine is 1.62.3 on Ubuntu):

    "terminal.integrated.defaultProfile.linux": "zsh",
    "terminal.integrated.profiles.linux": {
        "zsh": {
            "path": "/usr/bin/zsh",
        }
    },

If only "terminal.integrated.defaultProfile." is set, it can not find zsh.

everyone. I had a similar issue, but I wasn't able to identify if something was using the port 5432. That was the way that I solved the issue:

1. I used sudo ss -tulwn | grep LISTEN

2. docker container ls (just checking)

➜ xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx git:(main) docker container ls CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES

3. docker ps -a (just checking)

 ➜  xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx  git:(main) docker ps -a
    CONTAINER ID   IMAGE     COMMAND   CREATED   STATUS    PORTS     NAMES

4. docker network prune

➜  xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx git:(main) docker network prune
    WARNING! This will remove all custom networks not used by at least one container.

After that, docker-compose down and docker-compose up --build works

And I was happy using docker... until now.

My next steps:
Configure container's environment for the first time

5. Run docker-compose run —rm web bash in a separate terminal pane/window. You should now be inside container, which is indicated by showing you a hashtag before commands.
6. Run rails db:create within container.
7. Run rails db:migrate within container. Run the environment seeds (if you want to)
8. Run rails db:seed.
