Question
vscode.dev tunnel connection disconnects

Asked by samdejonghhepworth
I use vscode.dev to develop a small app. To do this I have installed nodejs and the code tunnel app on my droplet. Everything works fine, I can edit, compile, and debug my app from vscode.dev.
My problem is that after some time vscode.dev loses connection to my droplet. I have discovered that I get the connection to work again, by opening a console to my droplet from the digital ocean site.
I wonder how I can stop my droplet from disconnecting vscode.dev? So that I don’t have to keep the console open all the time…
thanks, sam

Hey!
The most common cause for this issue is SSH timing out due to inactivity. There was a similar discussion reported here and the user was able to get it working by increasing that in their SSH config:
You can try to configure your Droplet’s SSH server.
Let me know how it goes!
