VSCode keeps asking for GitHub authentication due to fault in keyring credential update

Open wswxyq opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Not sure. I run "code tunnel" without opening the UI.

  • VS Code Version: 1.80.0
  • OS Version: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Install VSCode or Code Cli on Ubuntu Desktop 22.04
  2. Run "code tunnel" on Ubuntu.
  3. Accept server license terms and login to https://github.com/login/device and enter the code.
  4. VSCode tunnel will show: [warn] Failed to update keyring with new credentials: error updating keyring: Couldn't access platform secure storage: SS error: result not returned from SS API .
  5. Quit VSCode tunnel and rerun "code tunnel". It will ask for GitHub authentication again, because it failed to update keyring.
