Can't connect to remote ssh server after recent update

Dima · September 20, 2023, 6:10am

Can’t connect to remote ssh server after recent update. Seems like it uses wrong link to download remote server blob.

Dima · September 20, 2023, 6:14am

this link is broken - https://cursor.blob.core.windows.net/remote-releases/0.11.0-1b7247269d81d7cd7a1512527e441539f8139f30/vscode-reh-linux-x64.tar.gz

Viktor · September 20, 2023, 12:11pm

Same as this Remote containers not working

links are broken.

truell20 · September 20, 2023, 3:07pm

Thanks for flagging, looking into this and fixing. Only released the latest update to a small set of users.

Apologies about this

Viktor · September 20, 2023, 3:54pm

Sadly it doesn’t work still, even with a version rollback. It seems like it can’t find the vscode server version anymore with the vscode version we have. This might not be a you issue, but the fact that microsoft have done some upgrade that indirectly affects us?

Dima · September 20, 2023, 4:14pm

This works for me. Hope that the issue will be fixed soon and I’ll be happy to test new features. Thanks for quick reaction and thanks for a great product!

truell20 · September 20, 2023, 4:42pm

@Viktor Can you send your error logs?

Viktor · September 20, 2023, 5:06pm

Turns out the blob exists now.

Logfile says theres an issue finding node or something. Here’s what it shows when i invoke the installer manually:

5f0652fd8610:~/.cursor-server/bin/0.10.4-c0db898419c36107211de244bdcf5f412c1a4920/bin# ./cursor-server --start-server --host=127.0.0.1 --port=0 --connection-token-file /root/.cursor-server/.c0db898419c36107211de244bdcf5f412c1a4920.token --telemetry-level off --enable-remote-auto-shutdown --accept-server-license-terms

I tried to fix it with symlink

5f0652fd8610:~/.cursor-server/bin/0.10.4-c0db898419c36107211de244bdcf5f412c1a4920/bin# rm /root/.cursor-server/bin/0.10.4-c0db898419c36107211de244bdcf5f412c1a4920/node

That partly solves it, but now i get a bunch of node module errors.
My guess is that it has something to do with my docker container being based on Alpine.

Error: Error loading shared library ld-linux-aarch64.so.1: No such file or directory (needed by /root/.cursor-

[IPC Library: Pty Host] innerError Error: Cannot find module '../build/Debug/pty.node'

The only way I could ask you to reproduce this is to use a docker container that has Alpine and see if yuo can get it to work.

It works with normal vscode, so definitely something on your end!

Viktor · September 20, 2023, 8:39pm

Remote SSH seems annoying to get working correctly with Alpine. However, dev containers works fine in vscode, but the error we get from running dev container in cursor:

Rolling back the version dont seem to help with dev containers. Trying to attach to running containers.

vscode · September 23, 2023, 4:34pm

Any news? The support seems to be dead.

Dima · September 23, 2023, 10:22pm

It is fixed in new version, so just update your app.

How can I install the server manually?
Should I use wget or another tool?

I’ve tried to share the logs a couple of times here, but I keep getting blocked by some bot moderation.
I’ve posted on Github issue: Can’t connect to remote ssh server after recent update · Issue #937 · getcursor/cursor · GitHub
