Version 1.95 does not connect to the container with distrobox #10426

devaex · 2024-10-30T17:01:06Z

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes/No

VS Code Version: 1.95
OS Version: Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon
Distrobox with Podman

Steps to Reproduce:

Start ubuntu container with Distrobox
Start VS Code and try to Attach to running container
The vscode dropdown menu list runing "ubuntu" container as always
But dont connect and displays a message stating that the "ubuntu" container does not exist.

It worked perfectly until version 1.94.

Nothing was done other than updating vscode to 1.95

What was attempted to solve:

Uninstall and install version 1.95 again.
Uninstall and install the Dev Container extension.
Tried with pre-release version of Dev Container

Finally I uninstalled version 1.95 and installed version 1.94 and it worked as usual again.

Please append the Dev Containers log from when this happens. (F1 > Dev Containers: Show Container Log)

Some more info:

I don't have docker installed, only podman.
The image used to create the container is "docker.io/library/ubuntu..." it always worked with distrobox + podman.
Works normally when going back to version 1.94

Mentioned this in a comment on an issue in the main VSCode GitHub, but do you have a profile enabled? For me this issue appears to be because the “applies to all profile” settings appear to not be getting applied across profiles in 1.95, so 1.95 tries to take your docker path from the profile (which is empty, so it defaults to docker) and not the top level.

If this applies to you as well, switching back to the default profile works around the issue (at least it does for me), and editing the profile’s .json file and putting the relevant top-level settings in there also works (you just have to remember to take them back out once the issue is fixed).

devaex · 2024-11-04T19:33:52Z

@mlawson27

Great find. I confirm that this solves the problem and it must certainly be something related to the scope of the settings.

What I did:

I didn't change the profile to the default. I continued on my profile.
F1 -> Preferences: Open User settings (JSON).
Put "dev.containers.dockerPath": "podman" in settings.
Vscode warned that this configuration is out of scope but I ignored it.
Try to attach to the container, and the connection was made as always.

Thank you for mentioning the answer in this issue.

joshspicer · 2024-11-08T20:27:30Z

I am able to repro a similar settings issue in the Remote - SSH extension (doesn't repro in 1.94.2). See microsoft/vscode#232602 (comment)

chrmarti · 2024-11-12T08:48:18Z

@devaex @mlawson27 The fix for microsoft/vscode#232602 is available in today's VS Code Insiders (https://code.visualstudio.com/insiders/). Could you give that a try and let us know if it fixes the problem? Thanks!

/cc @sandy081

devaex · 2024-11-12T13:40:14Z

@chrmarti I confirm that the Insiders version fixed the problem.

Thanks for attention.

devaex · 2024-12-13T16:46:05Z

This error returned in version 1.96.
Very frustrating.

The same workarround can be used:

F1 -> Preferences: Open User settings (JSON).
Put "dev.containers.dockerPath": "podman" in settings.
Vscode warned that this configuration is out of scope but I ignored it.
Try to attach to the container, and the connection was made as always.
