The symptom was that ctrl+p and "Find in files" only returned results from opened editors.

I googled and found the issue that describes my problem. https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-remote-release/issues/709
I called ~/.vscode-server/bin/6c3e3dba23e8fadc360aed75ce363ba185c49794/node_modules/@vscode/ripgrep/bin/rg
from shell and got a Segmentation Fault
which was an indicator to me that the vscode-server installation is messed up.
I renamed the ~/.vscode-server
to ~/.vscode-server-backup
to trigger a reinstall and the ctrl+p started working.
Because the new ~/.vscode-server
lacked some stuff, I copied the rg
into ~/.vscode-server-backup
and moved it back to ~/.vscode-server
I tried to describe my solution in the Github issue, but it's locked. So I decided to post the solution here for others.
