i have vscode then i install cursor, so the extension ssh automatically copy from my vscode.
when using the remote-ssh to connect the target device , it failed and said “https://update.code.visualstudio.com/commit:xxxxxxxx/server-linux-x64/stable 404 not found”. i found the commit id is cursor commit id, but it should be vscode version right?
it should be the remote-ssh extension issue or the cursor’s?
how to fix it ? anyone knows ?
The Remote-SSH extension that copied over from VS Code may not be a compatible version with Cursor. You’ll need to:
- Uninstall the current Remote-SSH extension
- Install version 0.113 specifically from the Cursor marketplace
- Restart Cursor and try connecting again
This should fix the 404 error you’re seeing. Check out our docs for more details: Cursor – Common Issues
what does cursor use for the extensions marketplace? is it a custom filtered version of microsoft marketplace of something like OpenVSX?
I tried this. Also followed the instructions in Common issues, still no dice. (Server returned 404)
[18:01:25.395] Exec server for ssh-remote+mydomain.com failed: Error: Failed to download VS Code Server (Server returned 404)
[18:01:25.395] Error opening exec server for ssh-remote+mydomain.com: Error: Failed to download VS Code Server (Server returned 404)
Issue for me was incorrect remote.SSH.path in my cursor settings.json
"remote.SSH.path": "\"C:\\Users\\Nouamane\\ssh.bat\"
replacing it with /usr/bin/ssh fixed the issue (I’m using Mac)
We recently released a new Remote SSH extension that is bult and maintained by the Cursor team.
If you’re still hitting SSH issues, could you uninstall the existing Remote SSH extension, and install the anysphere.remote-ssh extension instead? This has resolved connection issues for some others.
You can find it by searching for @id:anysphere.remote-ssh in the extension search box. Attaching a screenshot
