Expected Behavior

After updating VSCode to the latest version, can not connect to remote server by ssh.
I tried various methods(delete the "known_hosts", clear the ".vscode-server" etc.) and it still doesn't work, showing "The remote host may not meet VS Code Server's prerequisites for glibc and libstdc++"

Hi,
I have the same problem as well, it seems the new update require some specific glibc and libstdc++ which is not compatible to my remote ends. I login to my remote end and delete the .vscode server to trigger wget again but it still fails. I am new to Github issue and I apology if my comment is not adhering to the required format

Cheers

The log is "Warning: Missing GLIBCXX >= 3.4.25! from /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.19
Warning: Missing GLIBC >= 2.28! from /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so
Error: Missing required dependencies. Please refer to our FAQ https://aka.ms/vscode-remote/faq/old-linux for additional information."
Hope this will be useful.

Hi,
I've the same issue. I was connecting to ec2 till tomorrow before updating to latest VS Code.
But it is not connecting after updating.
Showing the below message -
"The remote host may not meet VS Code Server's prerequisites for glibc and libstdc++. "

So I've downgraded to VS code version 1.85 and it is connecting.

So I've downgraded to VS code version 1.85 and it is connecting.

Maybe downgrading isn't necessary after all (with some linux distributions at least). See #9467 (comment) and #9467 (comment)
