Thanks for reporting this.

How did you join the collaboration session when you saw this error message? Did you open the collaboration session URI in your browser, or did you click "Join collaboration session..." from the Live Share viewlet?

Did you get the collaboration URL in email, in Skype, Teams, or other instant messaging client?

If the session is over, and you still have the URL, can you post it here or email to vsls-feedback@microsoft.com? Live Share doesn't reuse collaboration session IDs, and once the session is over, the URL is useless. But it can help us understand what is going on.

Please attach your logs here or email them to vsls-feedback@microsoft.com so that we can investigate this issue. You can get your logs by running "Live Share: Export Logs" in the command palette in VS Code
