Error: "Failed to connect to X gitpod workspace" when setting up SSH keys for VS Code Desktop

[loujaybee]

"Failed to connect to X gitpod workspace"

Steps to replicate:

• Open VS Code Desktop without SSH setup
• Follow prompt to SSH page
• Return to VS Code Desktop after browser redirect

Note: Please excuse the image resolution, it is taken from a screen recording, will try to get another higher resolution!

Expected result:

• No error message, instead a prompt such as: restart workspace "I have enabled my SSH keys"

Actual result:

• When returning to VS Code Desktop you are presented with a connection error

@loujaybee what redirect are you referring to?

instead a prompt such as: restart workspace "I have enabled my SSH keys"

you don't need to restart, your new added key is valid in all currently running workspaces
