The latest Cursor upgrade broke Remote SSH, which I depend on to do work. If this doesn’t get fixed soon, I’m gonna need to cancel my subscription.

This happens on 1 out of 2 servers I am connecting to. The other one is fine and I am able to connect to it.

However, the one that does not work, has worked couple of days ago.

I had removed the Cursor installation and installed again. That fixed the issue.

Just tried and that worked for me. Thanks.

Really disappointing that this is the solution. I wish the Cursor team would prioritize basic functionality.

I’m having the same issue. It attempts to download this tarball which goes to a 404, causing it to fail then try the same thing again:

@deanrie are there any plans on fixing this? Cursor is unusable for me and many others without remote ssh.

Same here from windows client to linux host.

I was still experiencing this issue after the most recent update but killing the .cursor-server directory on remote fixed it.
