Files open but are blank

[benluria]

This was working yesterday, so I'm not sure what is going on...but today after establishing my ssh tunnel with: ssh -R 52698:127.0.0.1:52698 root@ipaddress and the password, i am able to navigate and call the rmate index.php command, but the file that opens is BLANK. Happens with every file i try.
On the remote machine, when I pull up the files in a text editor, they have all of their content.
I tried resetting both machines on either side of the connection and uninstalling/reinstalling vscode.

This was such a great feature to have, please help me out!

ran this on my remote machine again:
sudo wget -O /usr/local/bin/rcode
https://raw.github.com/aurora/rmate/master/rmate
chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/rcode

now it's working.

How strange!
