Running ngrok autocloses workspace

[devops-at-alinea]

Bug description

I have been running ngrok to provide stable urls for webhooks and callbacks.

This has been working for a long time, now suddenly when ngrok is run the workspace auto closes.

Support stable URLs for endpoints

Steps to reproduce

Create a new workspace: https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/gitpod-io/template-nix

Download ngrok

wget https://bin.equinox.io/c/4VmDzA7iaHb/ngrok-stable-linux-amd64.zip 
unzip ngrok-stable-linux-amd64.zip

Setup ngrok using the authtoken in your dashboard

./ngrok authtoken <your auth token>

Run ngrok:

./ngrok http -region=eu 8080

Workspace affected

No response

Expected behavior

The workspace should remain open.

Example repository

No response

Anything else?

Hi @devops-at-alinea. I'm sorry we broke your experience. Given abuse and IO limiting issues, we had to temporarily block ngrok.

@atduarte any timeline on when it can be unblocked?

Hi @DaniAkash @devops-at-alinea and @stephenavocado you should be all set now, may we ask you to try starting workspaces again?

[kylos101]

Hi @ctrlaltdylan it looks like you may have been impacted by this issue, too. You should be able to start workspaces again, let us know if you're having trouble?

Hello, dear reader, if you were blocked within the last 3 days and are still having trouble, please leave a comment here and we'll reopen the issue.

All seems to be working for me. Anything to look out for in the future?
