Not being able to save connection or add manually

[felipedalton]

Describe the bug
When trying to add a trino connection I'm getting the following error: Unable to write file '/.vscode/settings.json' (Unknown (FileSystemError): Error: EROFS: read-only file system, mkdir '/.vscode')

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to SQL Tools extension on sidebar
2. Click on Add Connection
3. Fill in connection settings
4. Click on save connection

Expected behavior
Connection should be saved with details registered into settings.json

Screenshots

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• SQLTools Version v0.28.1
• VS Code Version: 1.84.2
• OS: MacOS Sonoma
• Driver:
  • Trino

Additional context
If I insert all details manually I'm able to see the database, but not sure if I'm getting the manual setup correctly because I can't seem to connect (although when utilizing the UI and clicking on Test Connection it does work - but cannot save)

Are you able to change VS Code settings at the User level and get those changes persisted?

Hello @gjsjohnmurray i believe I can, but I'm not sure how to do it, are you able to give me some tips on where I'd be able to do it? I'm kinda new to VSCode coming from R

Please see https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/settings and particularly https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/settings#_settingsjson

Thank you! Though I was not able to use the UI i could find the correct json file and add the connection manually, not it is working

Perhaps a bug in the Trino driver.
