Visual Studio 2022 unable to connect to remote Linux-Arm

[jbatt33]

I'm attempting to have Visual Studio 2022 remote connect to my linux-arm over SSH. I'm getting some errors, but I can't seem to determine what is missing on the remote side to resolve. Below are the logs from visual studio, but from what I can see all the command commands issues from visual studio are successful, but it seems to be failing to find the home folder?

When I attach I'm able to run the GetVsDbg script manually, so I'm not too sure what to debug at this point,

From the logs, it looks like the SSH infrastructure in VS is failing to determine your home directory on the remote system.

Could you check to be sure that your remote system is setting $HOME to a valid path that your user can write to?

@andrewcrawley Yes, so I attached another visual studio to the one that was attempting to attach to determine what path it couldn't find. I determined that the issue is that my home directory is present over the SSH connections, however the SFTP connections show a different directory structure causing the SFTP library to toss a fit. While it would have been nice if the exception message included the path that it couldn't find. I'm going to close this out as invalid since this is a setup issue and nothing wrong with the main library. Thanks for responding quickly.
