I’m running code-server in a Docker container. I’m getting the subject error when I connect from iPad (it worked once, but then wouldn’t work any more) and try to do a markdown preview. I’ve also tried using the preview extension with the same result.

I’ve updated the server to the latest version, but no luck.

Is anyone getting a preview to work? What are some things I can try next?

Thanks.

    Interesting 🤔 I'm seeing a similar error on my iPad.

    I'm not sure why this is happening. I'm going to convert this to an issue for tracking

    As for next steps, here's what you could do:

    • see if you can reproduce this on GitHub Codespaces. If you can, then it's an upstream issue and should be filed under microsoft/vscode

    I also have this issue. Is there anything I can test or check?

    Thanks for asking! Do you have access to Codespaces? Or actually, can you test this by:

    1. opening GitHub repo in Safari on iPad
    2. Hit "." to open on github.dev
    3. Command Palette > Open Markdown Preview to the Side

    And maybe record a video and let us know what happens? If the error occurs, then we can file upstream

    More recently, I’ve had limited use of my iPad to access a personal instance of code-server without experiencing this issue. I’ve been waiting to close this until I use the setup more.

    @faisal-ijaz, I deployed code-server through a Docker container on a VPS, and am using the latest iPadOS.
