dev containers logs out of Jetbrains account with CLion

Answered

I'm wishing to use CLion within a dev container. But when I start up my dev container and clion instance within it, it logs me out of my jetbrains. 


Then when I go into the “settings sync” menu within settings, and click “login with jetbrains account…”, the button does nothing. 

This is quite annoying as I'm keen to use my synced keybindings, that otherwise sync between by JB IDEs running locally.

I managed to log in temporarily to my remote CLion instance with my JB account, but the settings weren't syncing. Since then I haven't been able to log back into JB on the remote CLion instance.

My OS is Windows 11, and I'm running CLion 2024.2 on the dev container, but locally it is 2024.1.6 (I've been unable to get it updated).

My dev container is being run on a Ubuntu 20.04 base image.

Hello!

DevContainers use the Remote Development functionality, and Settings synchronization is not supported for Remote Development yet - IJPL-13075.
