Ubuntu – I can't establish a connection with a ssh server with VsCode

In this month i always connected to a ssh server with vscode ssh connection, and the only thing i do to close my connection is close the window. But this time i can’t reconnect due to an error.

This is my log:

    I have just resolved this on my QNAP system. Not sure if it might apply to you.

    wget (busybox) on my system in /usr/bin/wget is

    GNU Wget 1.16

    I also have a more recent wget installed with Entware in /opt/bin/wget

    GNU Wget 1.21.4

    /usr/bin/wget will fail to download vscode server, but /opt/bin/wget works

    > /usr/bin/wget https://vscode.download.prss.microsoft.com/dbazure/download/stable/f1e16e1e6214d7c44d078b1f0607b2388f29d729/vscode-server-linux-x64.tar.gz

OpenSSL: error:1409442E:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:tlsv1 alert protocol version
Unable to establish SSL connection.

    In my normal usage, I have made sure that /opt/bin is before /usr/bin in my PATH.

    However, when VSCODE connects using a non-interactive non-login shell, they are reversed in the PATH.

    PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/bin

    I renamed /usr/bin/wget to something else so it wouldn’t be found, the installation then used /opt/bin/wget, and everything worked.

    A second issue was related: after starting the server, it couldn’t find the process ID because the busybox ps was obsolete, and the updated version is in /opt/bin/ps

    ps: invalid option -- 'p'

    In my login shells, the path is

    PATH=...:/opt/bin:/opt/sbin:...:/usr/bin:/bin...

    For the life of me I can’t find where the path gets set to /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/bin in the non-interactive non-login shell. I’ve checked every .profile, .bashrc, /etc/profile, /opt/etc/profile etc that I can find documented.

    For now I have made symbolic links to the updated get and ps versions, and everything is fine again.

    This may or may not be your issue, but I hope it at least helps somebody who has spend the whole day searching and reading threads on this issue finding nothing helped. Luckily, I just happened to notice the PATH getting reported in the terminal output in VSCODE, and checked where wget was installed.

    Looking at your log files it looks like a permission issue on the server.

    ls -ld /home/user/.vscode-server might help see the permissions.

    If nothing helps remove the directory from remote server and start again. (Make sure to replace the path with the actual path for your SSH user)

    rm -rf /home/user/.vscode-server

    Also make sure the server you are trying to RemoteSSH into are not using proxy. At least it was in my case.
    Adding the following in your basrc or bash_profile might help.

    export http_proxy='http://myproxy.com:8080'

    or

    export https_proxy'https://myproxy.com:8080'
