Remote Extension host failed (multiple times)

[jmlemercier]

Hi,

Since last month, I cannot open .wav files in a stable way (using VSCode through SSH tunneling). Either the files do not open, or load indefinitely, or throw an error window "XXXX can't be opened". Additionally, the VS Code editor warns that "Remote Extension host failed x times in the last 5 minute" and offers to restart it, but that does not solve the problem.

When using Bisect extension to try and solve the problem, Bisect naturally disables this extension, which indicates that the problem is indeed caused by this audio-preview extension.

Thanks for the help!

Could you open dev-tool and copy-past error messages? (F12 or Ctrl shift I)

And which one are you using, VS Code or VS Code for the web?

Hi! Can't use dev-tool sadly, I 'm using VSCode desktop version, and this only happens when I'm in a SSH session to one of my remote computers

This is what I usually get:

It can also happen that I get some "Permission denied" when trying to open the files directly in the shell via "code xxx.wav" , or some windows poping up saying "Unable to open xxx.wav"

Thanks for the help

Thank you! But you can use Dev-tool on VS Code Desktop.
Help > Toggle Developer Tools on top menu. (shortcut doesn't work. sorry)

Hmm, I have no idea, but this extension use vscode.workspace.fs to open wav file.
So, maybe, you should permit vscode to open wav file.

Oh thank you! Here is the output:
