OS/Web Information
- Web Browser:
- Local OS:
- Remote OS: Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS
- Remote Architecture: x86-64
code-server --version: 4.98.2 e2c489d with Code 1.98.2
Steps to Reproduce
- After successful installation of Code Server on Linux server (Ubuntu), running command for installation of python extension on server:
code-server --install-extension ms-python.python - Command ends with following errors:
Installing extensions...
read ECONNRESET
Failed Installing Extensions: ms-python.python
-
This machine is behind firewall, but I had following hostnames/ports enabled on firewall (to allow installation of extensions and also installation of Code Server itself):
code-server.dev:443
marketplace.visualstudio.com:443
az764295.vo.msecnd.net:443
code.visualstudio.com:443
update.code.visualstudio.com:443
vscode.download.prss.microsoft.com:443
download.visualstudio.microsoft.com:443
open-vsx.org:443
xextensions.coder.com:443 -
I also tried to download vsix file of this extension on Ubuntu server and install it from this file using commands:
curl --output /home/jovyan/ms-python.python-2025.2.0.vsix https://open-vsx.org/api/ms-python/python/2025.2.0/file/ms-python.python-2025.2.0.vsix

code-server --install-extension /home/jovyan/ms-python.python-2025.2.0.vsix
But installation failed as well - see output of this command:
Installing extensions...
Error: End of central directory record signature not found. Either not a zip file, or file is truncated.

Expected
Installation of code server extension on server should be succesfull
a) Either using command (thus installation directly from Open-VSX marketplace):
code-server --install-extension ms-python.python
b) Or from downloaded visx file:
code-server --install-extension /home/jovyan/ms-python.python-2025.2.0.vsix
