Description
Bug description
I have a project where we use as "Task" to start a three panel terminal combination, each running a script that opens a port. When I accidentally reloaded the tab with Gitpod, the project itself came back and the ports are also still in use - but the terminal windows with the running processes are gone - so I can not restart them. I can also not run the task again, as the ports it would require are already in use.
I had to open a completely new GitPod windows.
Steps to reproduce
- Start process in terminal that opens a port via Task
- Reload Gitpod tab
- Observe that port is still in use, but terminal running the task is gone
