Hello @swapniltake1 ,
you seemingly used the wrong user/password; or your password may have expired on PUB400. Try connecting with a 5250 emulator to check that 9and double check your password).

Worst case scenario: your profile may be disabled on PUB400, in which case you'll have to reach out to the admin to sort it out.

hi @sebjulliand
My emulator is functioning correctly, and I have verified that my username and password are accurate. Despite this, I am still unable to connect using IBM i VSCode. Could you please advise on how to resolve this issue?

[sebjulliand]

Re-type or copy/paste your password in your connection configuration.
That's the only remaining problem (and the most common for this issue), unless you use a private key to connect.

how can we generate private key in pub400

[thomprl]

are you using the correct port? pub400 uses a different port.

Some suggestions:

1. Change your password via 5250 and see if it changes anything.
2. Check your home directory in 5250: WRKLNK '.'. It should be /home/swapnil10.
3. Check the files in your home directory - that you own all the files. You can change ownership via 5250 command CHGOWN OBJ('/home/swapnil10/*') NEWOWN(SWAPNIL10) SUBTREE(*ALL)
4. Run your SSH client in verbose mode: ssh -vvv [email protected] -p 2222 and check for any suspicious errors.

Code for IBM i is merely a SSH client like many other SSH clients, but you get more error information when using a regular SSH client. Make your login work in the SSH client - when it works here, it will also work in Code for IBM i.

If you can't make it work, please contact PUB400 for support.
