Running VScode Online on Neth Server

oneitonitram · October 15, 2021, 10:39am

I addedd ssl and changed the login password, and now i am not able to login with the password i created, even after running systemctl restart code-server@vscode

mrmarkuz · October 15, 2021, 12:15pm

Did you change the password in the config.yaml file as explained here ?

oneitonitram · October 15, 2021, 1:03pm

funny thing is, restarting the server fixed the problem.

Install the vscode following the instructions in this tutorial but when starting the web page I get an error and I can’t continue. Please help me.

Hello,

welcome to NethServer Community!

I couldn’t reproduce your issue, the tutorial should work.

Are there errors regarding vscode in /var/log/messages ?

Let’s check if the service is started:

systemctl status code-server@vscode -l

Please share the reverse proxy config:

db proxypass show

Do you use tomcat?

I don’t use tomcat, i use 8088 port in config.yaml

 cat /home/vscode/.config/code-server/config.yaml

I think vscode is runnig, this is the screenshot when i try access:

Thanks for your help

There’s an open issue regarding the recent version 4. Seems we need to wait for a fix for apache reverse proxy.

As a workaround you may downgrade to version 3.12:

yum downgrade "https://github.com/coder/code-server/releases/download/v3.12.0/code-server-3.12.0-amd64.rpm"

systemctl daemon-reload

systemctl enable code-server@vscode --now

mgon74 · February 16, 2022, 5:47pm

Sorry a new error, i follow your steps (nothing wrong) for downgrade but when i try access to url i see this error on browser (502 proxy error):

Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

i don’t now, i need change something on config proxy?

Thanks.

mrmarkuz · February 16, 2022, 5:50pm

Maybe the port was reset to 8080 in the config.yaml file?

Please check server status again:

mgon74 · February 16, 2022, 5:55pm

this is my config.yaml

File: /home/vscode/.config/code-server/config.yaml

bind-addr: 127.0.0.1:8088
auth: password
password: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
cert: false

This is the result of comand:
