@gmoutso how are you activating the environment? Are you using conda-env-activate or the autoactivate-mode?

[gmoutso]

I was using (conda-env-autoactivate-mode) but I have the wrong exec-path even without autoactivate (after conda-env-activate).

It works with emacs -Q (setting conda-anaconda-home and conda-env-home-directory to ~/miniconda). I will try to find what the issue is in my configuration.

[gmoutso]

After a frantic search, I realised that my init.el works perfectly well when loaded with emacs --daemon or emacs -q -l ~/.emacs.d/init.el where I have:

(require 'conda)
(custom-set-variables '(conda-anaconda-home "/home/moutsopoulosg/miniconda/"))
(conda-env-initialize-interactive-shells)
;; if you want eshell support, include:
(conda-env-initialize-eshell)
;; if you want auto-activation (see below for details), include:
(conda-env-autoactivate-mode)
(setq conda-env-home-directory "/home/moutsopoulosg/miniconda/")

It fails when I run the daemon (as I usually do) with a systemctl unit systemctl start --user emacs where under .config/systemd/user/emacs.service

I have no idea why. Close the bug if you think it is not in conda.el's.
In any case, thank you for the package and for your prompt response.

@gmoutso can you confirm if conda-env-activate works if you're not in daemon mode? I'd be happy to look into the daemon issue too but if it's not affecting conda.el functionality I probably won't have any more knowledge than you do on how to start debugging 😄

[gmoutso]

Both daemon and non-daemon are working now, but unfortunately I cannot find the critical change I made in my init.el between not working and working (whether daemon or not).

With the changes to JSON activation this should be fixed; closing as inactive for now, but if this is still relevant please reopen!
