Failed to scp local download tar file to remote server. I think the reason for this issue is some special character in path.

    Hi,
    first of all, I like this plugin a lot, it's working fabulously, great work!
    At least it was until some 2 months ago when I started to get exactly the same error.

    The remote server doesn't have internet connection so the new version of VSC Server is downloaded via client and transferred to the remote. It was working well before but now I am getting the error:

    [15:19:31.322] Downloaded VS Code server to c:\Users\RADIM~1.POD\AppData\Local\Temp\6b93c8b3-5104-4dee-a1d2-223b051001a1

    and here it is stuck forever.

    I have found a workaround, it is working when you copy the downloaded server to the server manually and extract it to the bin folder under the correct hash of the version but it is pretty annoying especially with so many new version lately.

    It doesn't seem like a hard error to fix, is there a chance that it will be fixed soon? Thanks!

    Both of you have a weird character in this path that scp got, which is probably related, but I have no idea what's going on

    Scp test failed! I see other normal host, I will not see scp exited with code: 1 error, maybe It cause the reason.

    happened to me today on 1.73.

    [12:35:21.804] Testing scp with "scp"

    It should raise at least an error when receiving non-zero exit code, now it continues

    Solved for me!

    I have 2 remote Windows servers, the 1st one was working and the 2nd one stopped working.
    I had the same SSH logs, it seems that VSCode couldn't copy his server to the 2nd server anymore (I don't know why).

    I copied the files from the 1st server to the 2nd server: C:/Users/{myname1}/.vscode-server from the 1st server to 2nd server C:/Users/{myname2}/.vscode-server.

    Be sure to use the correct SSH user {myname2} to connect to the server after that.

    We already familiar with this workaround. It should solved without this.

    I'm guessing this is setup this way (scp instead of a local dll on host) assuming the host might not have internet?
