Remote SSH fail due to cursor-server segfault

On the most recent cursor version, even after reinstalling cursor locally (removing all application data) and fully uninstalling the cursor-server on the remote, I cannot succeed at ssh’ing into my remote anymore.

When cursor is trying to install cursor-server on the remote, it fails at the very end with the message:

[12:57:51.410] [server] Error installing server: error checking server integrity: failed to run command “/home/users/metzgerj/.cursor-server/cli/servers/Stable-fe574d0820377383143b2ea26aa6ae28b3425220.staging/server/bin/cursor-server --version” (code -1):

And when I try to run this command manually on the remote, I get a ‘Segmentation Fault’ error. I’m locally on an up-to-date MacBook Pro, and my remote is a CentOS Linux 7 RHEL (Stanford’s Sherlock).

Hey, I’m guessing that the cursor-server binary is not built to support that OS, hence the segmentation fault. You can probably confirm this by trying to remote into a newer machine and confirming that works correctly!

Yeah I would suspect this is the issue, but it was working until a recent update and I cannot update the OS of this remote. Can you add support again or will I be unable to use cursor from now on, on my University’s cluster?

I’ll pass this to the team and see what’s missing here to get things working for you!

When i do the same with the latest vs code it only shows me a message:

but cursor doesn’t let me continue/crashes with the same message as above (trying to connect to a jetson nx2
