[Remote-SSH Bug]: Always have to Kill VS Code Server on Host multiple times to make it possible to connect

[zarif98]

Is there an existing issue for this bug?

• I have searched the existing issues

Required Troubleshooting Steps

• I have followed these troubleshooting steps
• I have tried both values of the remote.SSH.useLocalServer setting

Connect Locally

It connects successfully

->

I have to Remote-SSH: Kill VS Code Server on Host... multiple times for my remote-ssh to connect. I use my laptop and my desktop for development and I have to remove it on both machines before I am able to connect again. I am using Stanford's Myth machines to do my development and it has been a huge annoyance trying to do any remote development on my machine. Are there any solutions that could be provided for this issue?

I am able to use regular terminal to connect just fine but Visual Studio code seems to crap out very fast.

Expected Behavior

Should just connect freely without me having to VS Code server on host everytime.

I also have a similar issue. For me, setting remote.SSH.useExecServer (true by default) to false fixes things for now.

Thanks for opening an issue - @zarif98 mind appending your entire log, looks like it got a bit truncated (specifically the top which shows what VS Code settings are configured)

Is this more helpful? A lot of stuff gets logged so not sure where the start and end is:

I also have a similar issue. For me, setting remote.SSH.useExecServer (true by default) to false fixes things for now.

Tried it for the first time and it seems to work! Which is great. Wonder what the differences are?
