ERR [File Watcher (node.js)] Error: EACCES: permission denied, stat '/home/codeserver/MyDir.code-workspace

[Shahi-Paneer]

Unable to do anything with code-server as it won't let me write to anywhere.

Unable to write file 'vscode-remote://liemcomputing.ca/home/codeserver/MyDir.code-workspace' (NoPermissions (FileSystemError): Error: EACCES: permission denied, open '/home/codeserver/MyDir.code-workspace')

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just need to give it write access to a certain folder within /home.

Edit:

How are you spawning code-server? The user you use to spawn code-server will need permissions to that directory.
