Unable to connect VS Code using IBMi extension

[kmepgm]

Downloaded VS Code and I am able to connect with ACS using client VPN. Others in group can use RDI, but VS Code not connecting. Any tips on settings to check or debugs to use.

TIA

Are you able to connect using the ssh command from a terminal?

Hi!
ACS emulator connects through telnet, RDi through JT400's connections, and Code for i through SSH. So it's most likely that your SSH configuration is at fault here. Please check out the documentation about getting started and tips about how to correctly configure your IBM I.
You can also check out IBM i OSS documentation, especially the getting started section (https://ibmi-oss-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/yum/README.html) as well as the Setting up your environment section (https://ibmi-oss-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user_setup/README.html)

Sounds to me like you might be in an untrusted workspace, which I believe stops some commands from working correctly.

@NextPage66 From your extensions view, do you have the Code for IBM i Walkthroughs extension installed?

[NextPage66]

Yes. I didn't know the log existed. I am very new to this platform. I downgraded to previous version of Code for IBM i Walkthroughs and the connection is working now.

If i have a question on a closed issue for Code for IBM i, what do I do?
