It appears that Xdebug has hung, and I can't figure out how to stop or restart it.
When trying to hit start on "Listen for Xdebug (workspace)", I get the error: "A client for 'identifier' is already connected".
How can I break the previous connection? I've restarted VSCode as well as my connection to the remote server.

Beginning today, I am unable to connect to my remote server in VSCode. The error in the output shows this repeating 5 times:

The port number in that SSH command is different for each attempt. If I copy that command out and run it in cmd manually from my local machine and add in -vvv, then I see the connection is successful and the prompt sits on "debug2: exec request accepted on channel 2" infinitely. I can't tell what the problem is. Is the local forwarding port failing to be created and listen on? Is there something with the remote server causing the timeout? Oddly, if I delete the .vscode-server directory on the remote and try to reconnect, then it actually does reinstall it fine. But I still get the error that VSCode can't connect to the remote server.
I forgot that the VSCode Remote extensions have their own repository. Turns out my issue is https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-remote-release/issues/7324
Ensuring that I set remote.SSH.useLocalServer to true in my user settings.json fixed the issue until it is resolved in-code.
I'm trying to setup Remote SSH extension on vscode to connect to a server that runs Windows Server 2022.
First, I can connect with SSH from the terminal ssh username#public_ip -p port then I enter the password and I can access the server.
I installed the Remote - SSH extension on vscode. I was able to connect to a Raspberry Pi without problems... But I cannot connect to a Windows Server 2022.
It asks me to enter the username password twice, then after a few seconds it stops with two errors pop-ups (see picture below).
Could not fetch remote environment
Failed to connect to the remote extension host server (Error: WebSocket close with status code 1006)
errors
Also, from another machine. I can connect to my server with vscode and the same extension (Windows Server 2022) without any problems so I don't think that the server has any issues. Seems like the problem is on my computer that won't connect.
I was able to connect once but I did break something and I don't know what. I tried to reinstall the extension but nothing helped.
EDIT:
I think I fixed it.
Here's what I did.
I uninstalled the Remote - SSH extension
I opened the settings.json on my local computer and deleted everything that had to do with this extension.
Deleted the config file from C:\Users\username\.ssh\config
I restarted vscode
Installed the extension
And it worked.
I'm trying to connect to a server via remote-ssh extension for Visual Studio Code, however, I'm getting the following error:
The vscode server failed to start SSH
Everything is fine on the server-side, and the connection to this host worked fine for a while.
Any suggestions to re-access the server via remote-ssh extension?
After a while, I found a solution that can be useful to others.
In VS Code press:
CTRL + SHIFT + P
Type or select the option:
Remote-SSH: kill VS Code Server on Host...
Select the host name:
And after this procedure, try connecting again to the host.
That worked for me.
In my case it was ssh plugin issue. I updated remote ssh plugin then it worked
wrong proxy setting may cause problem.
If Remote-SSH: kill VS Code Server on Host command not work for you, open settings and clear proxy setting and retry.
Everything is fine on the server-side, and the connection to this host worked fine for a while.
In case it is a simple intermittent network issue, VSCode 1.70 (July 2022) will retry the connection for you (up to 5 times)
See issue 127565 and PR 156444
Retry up to 5 times the initial authority resolving and also retry up to 5 times the initial connection
When connecting to a remote, if the initial connection fails, we will give up. The idea was that retrying would be useless, since the initial setup might have failed.
But it is possible that perhaps it was an intermittent network error.
This is available in VSCode insiders today.
Update the Remote ssh
check file groups belongs to same group if you manually copied .vscode-server
Remote-SSH: kill VS Code Server on Host...
Didn't work for me, so I tried the other option:
Remote-SSH: Uninstall VS Code Server from Host...
It took a bit more time but worked for me!
I am coming from notepad, and am learning how to work with VS Code.
I am now trying to access my online repertory on the webserver.
I followed up the guide here: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh
I did manage to access my server through the terminal window.
(ssh user#domain + password).
When connecting, this shows in the log:
"Linux infong-eu27 4.4.246-icpu-061 #2 SMP Thu Nov 26 10:58:41 UTC 2020 x86_64"
This tells me that it is working on Linux.
If I type "Ls", I can see my folders and navigate among them.
So far, so good!
Second phase: Connecting through the remote explorer.
Step 1:
I configured the ssh with the same credentials I used with the terminal.
Step 2:
I am opening the remote explorer, I can see my server's name. I right click on it and select "connect".
Step 3:
I am then asking to choose the system. I am picking Linux as shown earlier when connecting through the terminal.
Step 4: I am entering the same password I used before to connect in the terminal.
Step 5: Infinite loading, or a very long one till I get 2 notifications / errors:
Could not fetch remote environment
Failed to connect to the remote extension host (error time limit..)
That being said, it also says in the bottom left corner, in the "remote window", that I am connected. This does not seems right.
Any chance someone could help?
I am frustrated because it connects in 1s using the terminal, but not in the remote explorer.
UPDATE:
I found this article on medium that paraphrases the official documentation.
https://medium.com/#sujaypillai/connect-to-your-remote-servers-from-visual-studio-code-eb5a5875e348
I managed, through Git bash, to create a ssh pair key, and managed to copy one on my server.
I then followed the instructions on how to set it up on VS Code successfully!
Now, when I try to connect, I am asked for my key pass:
But, when I do: super long loading, and the same error message.
When I looked on my server with a sftp software, I see that VS did manage to connect as files were installed in a VS folder it created:
This is reported in issue 4415 (no answer) and issue 4204
The last one includes:
This might be caused by our new automatic port forwarding feature which scans the remote OS for available ports in order to forward them locally (microsoft/vscode#112843)
This is fixed by PR 113342, for the next 1.54 Feb. 2021 release. That bug is about setting remote.autoForwardPorts to false and... still seeing VSCode auto-forward ports!
Check on your server (while VSCode attempts to connect) if:
the CPU is high
if there are any services running on public port on said server
I solved a similar issue by following the error logs from the remote ssh extension. I had to install libatomic1 on the remote server with
sudo apt-get install libatomic1
i tried to apply a remote debugging session with Eclipse to a Windows XP remote pc. So i configured a Windows-Connection in "Debug Configuration" for a "C/C++ Remote Application". But it gives me the following Error message:
"Daemon failed to launch server on IP_ADDRESS using port 0.
Connection refused. Make sure that the DataStore daemon is running on
IP_ADDRESS"
What is the probleme here? Why is a "DataStore" needed, where to get it if it's necessary!?
To connect, a RSE Server has to run on windows box. This invokes the necessary daemon which eclipse wants to connect to.
