Hi @Aum - are you still seeing this issue? Or was that temporary?

Thanks,

I’m still seeing the issue. Could it be because of an age limit? Gemini works fine for me on the app/web.

I have a personal account (17 years old) in Australia, I don’t think it should be an issue.

@Aum you are correct, to use the AI assistive features in IDX, you have to be 18 or older (Project IDX 其他計畫限制和免責事項  |  Google for Developers)

I can’t reach Gemini. Haven’t been able to the last 10 days.

@jaa90 - does going to https://gemini.google.com work for you?

[jaa90]

Hi kirupa. I can chat with Gemini at gemini.google.com so that works just fine. If i recall correctly I was able to use IDX Gemini when I just opened my first IDX project but not anymore.

However inline is working for me.

hi this is happened to me too, i older than 18, and it works in the past. also https://gemini.google.com work for me. the error i seen is Error: EACCES: permission denied, scandir ‘/home/user/.local/share/docker/overlay2/0308f4b56f9838f01d69ac8d4ed8d4051999b1f777a259f6ddafd4cb7615c0b3/work/work’

Hi @Yosef_Schwartz - related to this post (Gemini IDX stopped working a week ago, or so - #9 by Ariston), can you please file a bug and share a screenshot of your devtools Console and Network Panel (see this bug response: Google Issue Tracker)?

Thanks,
Kirupa

New user of IDX but get this same error:

“Error reaching Gemini in IDX”

Using chat. Did it get resolved?

[kirupa]

@ali or @ksat may be able to help you out here.

@NordAI are you using a VPN?

Yeah, me too, I live in France, and I’m 15 years old. I don’t know why, the function ‘Explain Selected Code’, ‘Add Comments For Selected Code’ and ‘Do Anything With Selected Code’ doesn’t work, however, the function ‘Generate Unit Test’, ‘Chat With Gemini’ and ‘Start Inline Chat’ work fully normally. Isn’t that a little bit weird? And I can speak with Gemini on the app too. (Btw, sorry if I make mistakes, I have not a good english)
