How to get error messages in Visual Studio Code? It used to tell why a deploy failed but not anymore

Hi team, 

When I code something and deploy to a sandbox, something it fails if I made a mistake or something doesn't work with the configuration of the sandbox.   When it fails, it used to give a details reason such as:
row 3 col 5 illegal assignment of String in Number field 

However, for some reason it stopped giving reasons but just the outcome
Now it just says DeployFailed: Deploy Failed

I am not sure if something change in CLI or I made a wrong setting. 
Can anyone please help?

Thanks!!

Not sure what to tell you.  I updated all my extensions in my Visual Studio Code after seeing your post and I still receive deployment errors in the OUTPUT tab when I have Salesforce CLI selected on the right.  So, that should rule out a problem with the latest versions of the extension.  

Do as Khan indicated and make sure you update all your extensions and Visual Studio Code in case Summer 19 broke something with older version of their Extensions.

Hi Ian,

Greetings to you!

You can install extensions from the marketplace that will help you to find out the error and bugs.

Try deploying via the CLI rather than VS Code to get better error messaging. Change directory to your project directory and run the following command: 
sfdx force:source:deploy --sourcepath \force-app

Also, try to update Salesforce CLI using below command:
sfdx update

I hope it helps you.

Kindly let me know if it helps you and close your query by marking it as solved so that it can help others in the future. It will help to keep this community clean.

Thanks and Regards,

Below is the output I get when I deploy something with an error. 
Starting SFDX: Deploy Source to Org

10:59:15.876 sfdx force:source:deploy --sourcepath /Users/iankang/Desktop/AutoLinkKpOrgToAcc/force-app/main/default/triggers/FindNLinkAcctWithKpOrgCreated.trigger --json --loglevel fatal
10:59:21.151 sfdx force:source:deploy --sourcepath /Users/iankang/Desktop/AutoLinkKpOrgToAcc/force-app/main/default/triggers/FindNLinkAcctWithKpOrgCreated.trigger --json --loglevel fatal ended with exit code 1

DeployFailed: Deploy failed.
I am wondering if it's because the log level is fatal?  If it is, how can make a default log level more detailed?

I upgraded -- 
  
sfdx-cli: Updating CLI from 7.112.1-b99fa53 to 7.114.0-5fe2863... done

I'm still getting no error details when I deploy.  Yes, I can go into the terminal window and run a command but that's much slower and more tedious.

This is what I get --- 
Starting SFDX: Deploy Source to Org

16:21:39.168 sfdx force:source:deploy --sourcepath /Users/kkoellner/Documents/vscode/catdevOrg/force-app/main/default/classes/ctr_testEmail.cls --json --loglevel fatal
16:21:50.783 sfdx force:source:deploy --sourcepath /Users/kkoellner/Documents/vscode/catdevOrg/force-app/main/default/classes/ctr_testEmail.cls --json --loglevel fatal ended with exit code 1
