Hi, i've the same problem : failed to run generator3/__main__.py for /usr/bin/python3, exit code 2, stderr: ----- usage: generator3 [-h] [-d PATH] [-s PATH_LIST] [--name-pattern PATTERN] [--builtins-only] [--state-file PATH] [--init-state-file] [-q] [-v] [-V] [-S] [-z ARCHIVE] [-u ARCHIVE] [-c MODULES] [-p] [mod_name] [mod_path] generator3: error: argument --state-file: can't open '/tmp/607e7473-1d48-4de7-a579-6bade69472d6/.state.json': [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/tmp/607e7473-1d48-4de7-a579-6bade69472d6/.state.json' -----

I've tried several methods but can't seem to solve the problem.
on some projects I don't encounter the problem. possibly linked to the docker description? 
have you been able to pinpoint the cause of the problem?

Thanks

Joaquimlozano , can you please provide logs from Help | Collect logs and Diagnostic Data ?

yes sure, how do you want me to send you the idea.log file?

Hi, I am also facing the same issue, hope the issue is resolved and if you can share any ideas on the fix, that would be really appricated.

Same here when using the flatpak version:

I'm invalidating cache, restarting, removing .idea folder, removing pycharm helper container, removing and re-adding interpreter, nothing seems to help. This was working fine just yesterday, at least for this project, it was having the same issues with another project.
Considering I have a license for the Professional edition and use this for my actual work, I would expect this to get fixed ASAP.
Multiple people have already provided their logs, and problems with the skeleton refreshing/generation have existed for years now. Perhaps there is a better solution?
Also it is quite obvious what the problem is here, the state file does not exist, which seems like an optional argument to that command, is there a way to change the configuration so that it does not add that argument or something? Then at least we'd have a workaround for the problem for now.

Hello,

I'm getting the same error.

Same issue here, never goes away when trying to add a remote python interpreter. I have removed orphans multiple times. Here is the link to the logs: Upload id: 2024_10_18_fJ8VYGCG4zrY56ZTjqjfG9 (file: pycharm-logs-20241018-10551117630549958663291350.zip)

Hi Ggray34, Alex, the issue looks similar to PY-55679. Is the workaround from this comment of any use for your config?

I'm also having the same issue and the fix from PY-55679 doesn't work for me.

It's the third time this year that I've been unable to use PyCharm for a couple of days because of similar issues. It stops being acceptable especially for the PRO version.
