[game1991]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes/No

• VS Code Version: 1.99.3 (system setup)
• OS Version: Windows_NT x64 10.0.22631

Steps to Reproduce:

I am using centos 7.9 as the WLS2 distribution. When vscode connected to WSL2, the log reported an error and could not connect to WSL2. The log is as follows:

I'm sorry I didn't notice this update. I'm going to try and see if it works. Thank you for reminding me

hi~Sorry to bother you, I've tried the above and it still doesn't work. Here is the logs:
The remote host may not meet VS Code Server's prerequisites for glibc and libstdc++ (The remote host does not meet the prerequisites for running VS Code Server)

The folder .vscode-server contains logs:

cat .cli.17baf841131aa23349f217ca7c570c76ee87b957.log
[2025-05-07 17:55:09] error This machine does not meet Visual Studio Code Server's prerequisites, expected either...
  - find GLIBC >= v2.28.0 (but found v2.17.0 instead) for GNU environments
  - find /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1, which is required to run the Visual Studio Code Server in musl environments

Current Linux: CentOS7.9

Judging from the logs, it seems that vscode found the glibc version that comes with the system, and did not look for it from the sysroot installed by ct-ng, I am sure that I have followed the steps in the docs, and set the three environment variables, verify that these steps are normal, but it is still unsuccessful when starting vscode to connect to the remote ssh

@deepak1556 Maybe the helpers/check_requirements.sh script is not aware of the patchelf setup?
