Unable to deploy: No authorization information found for -g

Hi Scott,

First of all, thank you for your excelled IDE! I’ve been using IC2 since the IC1 days, and it runs circles around any Salesforce supported IDE.

Unfortunately, I’ve run into an issue over the last week or so where deployments have been failing. I’ve only noticed this on one org - but not too sure how to resolve it. The CLI version is 7.195.2-29203e7. Retrievals work, just deployments seem to fail.

I’ve tried deleting the orgs setup from SFDX (remove the alias and stored data) and re-authenticating. The authentication works, but still doesn’t resolve the deployment issue.

The error is intermittent as well, and is different depending on what I am trying to deploy. I seem to generally be able to deploy LWCs, often able to deploy Apex, and it seems not able to deploy Apex.settings.

Below is the cli output:

Error
=====

My hypothesis is based on this part of the message Parsing --target-org \n\tNo authorization information found for -g.\nSee more help with --help and that removing the -o and -g resolves the error.

Is there something that jumps to mind that will help me resolve or further debug this issue? Also, this is a minor one as I do have a good enough work around and it could be a bug in the CLI.

Cheers

Nic
