[Bug]When working with a proxy, the extensions cannot be automatically installed.

[foreverflying]

I am using a proxy and installed the proxy root cert into the host system (MacOs 13.0.1 on m1), also in the container (with "postCreateCommand": "update-ca-certificates"). but when the container is created, the vscode extensions cannot be installed automatically.

In the Server output, it shows the error:

[error] Error: unable to get local issuer certificate
    at TLSSocket.onConnectSecure (node:_tls_wrap:1530:34)
    at TLSSocket.emit (node:events:526:28)
    at TLSSocket._finishInit (node:_tls_wrap:944:8)
    at TLSWrap.ssl.onhandshakedone (node:_tls_wrap:725:12)

If you manually install those extensions, you can succeed, but the same error still happens:

I also tried to set the container environment NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS to point to the proxy root cert, but it doesn't help too.

It worked fine until I update docker to 4.17.0, from this version, docker seems to change the proxy policy a little bit, so the host proxy settings are making effect by default.

Hi 👋

Thanks for reporting the issue. @alexander-smolyakov can you help investigate? thanks!

Hi guys, is there any update? It's over one year now, and in the past year, we need to manually install extensions every time after we purged the volumes.
