vscode connect fails

[alon1samuel]

Trying to connect using vscode has failed since about a week ago,
I'm managing to connect with SSH fine, but vscode itself fails.

Looks like a permissions error?

Getting a tar error which not sure how to fix:

[11:38:35.267] stderr> tar: code: Cannot change ownership to uid 1000, gid 1000: Operation not permitted
[11:38:35.267] stderr> tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
[11:38:35.268] > ERROR: tar exited with non-0 exit code: 0

Update:
Checked and I've downgraded to Remote - SSH version to v0.109.0
Now it works!

Was previously on v0.110.1

Hi, @alon1samuel , thanks for raising this issue with the upstream repository! I will try to understand if it's a bug or a feature.

One of the users also reported that the following command might help when downgrading:

rm -rf ~/.vscode-server
