Describe the Bug

I’m trying to install the Python extension on a remote Linux server. However, the process seems stuck at some point.

I checked the output and found the network error:

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hi @yfflood, do you have a proxy in place? Those links seem fine – they just downloaded for me. Remote proxy settings can be set in the remote ssh settings

It could have also just been a random network flake, could you try restarting the editor and download again? Do other extensions download ok?

Simply restarting could not solve this for me.
I’m not sure about the proxy. I was trying to install the extensions for a remote server, which had no proxy in place.

(btw I took the alternative to install with VSDX, which works smoothly.

Could you try downloading it again? We just switched the CDN that serves the Anysphere extensions, which should hopefully make the download faster and more reliable.

Also, what is the architecture of your remote linux server? We only support arm64 and x64 hosts.
