This is when I manually ssh and wget, it doesn’t have problem

nvme@nvme-cli532:/tmp$ wget https://cursor.blob.core.windows.net/remote-releases/96e5b01ca25f8fbd4c4c10bc69b15f6228c80770/vscode-reh-linux-x64.tar.gz

Hi! Wondering if a proxy needs to be used? If so, you’ll need to configure this in the settings before attempting the download. Attaching a screenshot

Hi @ravirahman

thanks for your reply

I just wonder if the manual download works on the same host, won’t that go with the same network settings as the extension?

8

It might not, depending on how the proxy is configured (e.g. if it is defined in a .bashrc file, then that might not be loaded when Cursor attempts to download the package)

9

It turns out this host does need proxy settings.

After I added it to the extension, it works.

Thanks @ravirahman for the help

The proxy address should I fill in is the proxy address on my local machine or the remote proxy address?

Remove machine. Local network communication uses the proxy settings detected from the environment
