Does this bug reproduce in native VS Code?

This cannot be tested in native VS Code

Does this bug reproduce in GitHub Codespaces?

I did not test GitHub Codespaces

Are you accessing code-server over a secure context?

• I am using a secure context.

Notes

Native VSCode does not run on Alpine since Alpine uses muslc instead of glibc

[VenomousSteam81]

Is there any logging that's more verbose than just code-server --verbose?
Edit: I looked into code-server --log and tried --log trace but I got the same output as --verbose

Another note: I have tried installing the npm version, but I get errors.

[VenomousSteam81]

I now have this running in a docker container. Not what I wanted, but it does work!

[code-asher]

--verbose is the maximum verbosity (equivalent to --log trace). There might be more logs in the VS Code logs directory though. Should be ~/.local/share/code-server/logs I believe.

You might have to try getting a core dump or something though. In the past when I have seen silent exits like these it is due to resource constraints (not enough memory, etc) but not sure if that is what is happening here, if running in a Docker container works (assuming it is the same machine).

[VenomousSteam81]

I managed to get the npm package running with pnpm but the ExtensionHost kept crashing so I gave up on that. I'm not going to worry about a core dump since I'm assuming this is an issue with the fact that Alpine uses musl-c and the docker container is working perfectly fine.

Closing this issue. If I feel like diagnosing the issue again I'll go ahead and re-open (if I even can).
