There have been similar issues reported with SSH connections in the past, but they were different.

I am trying to connect to my local Home Assistant server using the “Open Remote - SSH” extension.
This works fine in VSCode using the same extension.

When trying to connect in Cursor, the SSH connection is established, but the server side setup process fails when trying to download a non-existing file:

[Trace  - 00:40:01.429] Server install command stderr:

wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 404 The specified blob does not exist.

Just saw this previous bug report: Remote ssh on Raspberry Pi 404 - #4 by maxwhalen
Which I believe is the same issue, though the specific file download that is 404ing is different.

Why can’t Cursor get this right? I’ve been scrolling through threads that go back a year and none of them have an actual solution, everyone just knows whats wrong and there’s no Dev responses. I’m just using Raspbian on a Pi4 and it works just fine on VSCode
