'server password' needed, but not documented

Open rogiervandenberg opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

When following the Quick Start, there's Requirements, Install, Verify, Run. But then, the container asks for a server password:

What to enter here, or where to set it? It is missing in the documentation.

I've got the same, no solution for me at this time.

The password can be found by doing this on the host:

docker logs <container_name>

One of the lines in there will show:

info - Password is XYZ

Use XYZ as the password into the IDE

It's weird, as sail seems to run code-server with the --no-auth flag: https://github.com/cdr/sail/blob/bcf906366e626d48e9722319c3d50b5d8c48ec02/runner.go#L173

I think code-server changed the flag to --auth=none.
