Can't install extension and errors are not descriptive

[samuela]

I just tried installing the "rust-lang.rust" extension, but immediately I get an error: "Failed to install "rust-lang.rust".". This strikes me as especially odd, since I can use VSCode's "Remote SSH" feature and install the extension without any hiccup on the exact same server.

It's also not at all clear what's going wrong here. The error message is not very descriptive but I opened up the DevTools console and it has a little something:

I feel as if this is a issue for normal Code-Server as this has to deal with code-server and NOT sshcode

Can you try directly running the code-server binary on the remote, and seeing if these issues exist then? if they dont, then it is sshcode at fault,
