@jhbaconshone You can check this post to find the application logs for lens https://forums.k8slens.dev/t/where-can-i-find-application-logs/98
There you find a file “lens.log”
In my case where pod-shell works i just get an info line stating “info: [LOCAL-SHELL]: PTY for … is started with PID=61292”
Maybe you see diffent messages for your case.
