vscode remote报错Waiting for server log

现象及原因

我在macbook pro 2020 intel+macOS Catalina上,VSCode>1.85连接CentOS7/Ubuntu18.04/Ubuntu20.04/Ubuntu22.04可能会无法连接,出现如下报错

网上查到可能的原因是:VSCode 1.86版本不再支持CentOS7(包括Ubuntu18.04等),因此需要手动回退至1.85版本

参考文章:

解决办法

  • 取消自动更新vscode:在本地vscode,按cmd+,,在设置页面搜索“Update: Mode”,将选项改为“none”。(要恢复自动更新,就改为default或start)image-20240924213656026

  • 安装vscode 1.85,下载链接:1.85版本,下载并安装它。

  • 打开vscode,在插件栏会看见,插件“Remote Development”及其下所有扩展包(包括插件“Remote - SSH”,负责vscode通过ssh连接远程服务器)的版本与vscode 1.85不适配。需要先卸载再重装插件“Remote Development”,而后“Remote Development”及其下所有扩展包都会重装为与vscode 1.85相适配的版本。

  • 然后在vscode里连接远程服务器就会成功。

不建议的解决方法

升级glibc到2.28

参见Linux Prerequisites for Visual Studio Code Remote Development,vscode使用连接成功的前提是:

  • 对远程Linux系统通用的要求:需要 kernel >= 4.18(查看内核版本的命令cat /proc/version), glibc >=2.28 (查看版本的命令ldd --version), libstdc++ >= 3.4.25 (查看版本的命令strings /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 | grep GLIBCXX), tar
  • 对Ubuntu>=20.04系统特别的要求:需要安装了libc6,libstdc++6,ca-certificates,tar (查看版本的命令apt show <软件名>

尽管我所登陆的服务器满足上述要求,但还是在macbook pro 2020 intel上,vscode连接Ubuntu20.04和ubuntu22的服务器均失败。我怀疑是其他原因,即vscode>1.85不支持macbook pro 2020 intel+macOS Catalina使用remote-SSH插件,或许需要升级macOS才能解决,又或许需要苹果芯片的电脑才能解决。我选择不升级操作系统,不买新电脑,而是把vscode降级到1.85,来解决这个问题。

引自VSCode>1.85不支持连接远程的CentOS7和Ubuntu18.04,升级glibc到2.28的方法无效:

参考Visual Studio Code Remote Development Frequently Asked Questions,将glibc更新至2.28。但重启后问题仍未解决。
尝试删除服务器上的.vscode-server,重新连接VSCode仍然无效。同时,删除客户端.ssh/known_hosts中的相关条目也未产生效果。

在Ubuntu18.04使用apt升级glibc到2.28的操作方法详见,该方法有安全隐患,不建议采用:

[!WARNING]

升级glibc可能会对系统稳定性产生影响,尤其是如果其他应用程序或库与新版本的glibc不兼容。在进行升级之前,请务必了解潜在的风险,并仔细考虑是否需要进行升级。

上述报错显示了服务器的登陆信息,说明本地vscode所使用的ssh config里指定的密钥对能登陆到服务器上,连接失败的原因可能是 VSCode>1.85不支持连接远程的CentOS7和Ubuntu18.04、Ubuntu20.04、Ubuntu22.04。

我把vscode降到1.85版本后,就能正常连接了。
