Steps to Reproduce
1To install the coder/code-server (or visual studio code server) 2.run "code-server" then you will see the estimated results 3.instal the visual studio code server (or coder/code-server) 4. run "code-server" then you will find that the results are different from the original ones
Expected
This will start code server before installation
Actual
After installing visual studio code server, the startup command of visual studio code server overwrites the original startup command. However, the original code server startup sh file can still be found by searching
Logs
No has log

No response
Does this issue happen in VS Code or GitHub Codespaces?
- [X] I cannot reproduce this in VS Code.
- [X] I cannot reproduce this in GitHub Codespaces.
Are you accessing code-server over HTTPS?
- [X] I am using HTTPS.
Notes
The code server file of visual studio code server is located in /usr/local/bin/, and this file may be a binary file
At present, visual studio code server is still under internal test, so few people may have this bug before it is officially launched. I want to know if code server has any startup commands other than code server?
After installing visual studio code server, the startup command of visual studio code server overwrites the original startup command.
I feel like this bug should be filed with them, don't you think? That shouldn't be overwriting our startup command. They should check for conflicts and handle them if they exist. Have you tried contacting them about it?

Yes, I just got the qualification of internal test. After the problem occurs, I put forward the issue in both the internal test warehouse and this warehouse. However, what they got was that because the warehouse was not Microsoft, they could not solve the problem and closed the issue
@jsjoeio I think @2659170494 is talking about https://github.com/coder/code-server/issues/5417#issuecomment-1210203300, i.e. executing code-server in code-server Terminal not being the same as executing code-server in a [regular] JupyterLab Terminal (e.g. https://demo.jupyter.b-data.ch).
The only thing theirs [Microsoft's] does not support is launching a new instance of code-server (it only supports interacting with the current instance of code-server) but I have no idea if that is a common use in the integrated terminal.

Ohhh...Whoops! Sorry for the confusion. Thanks for pointing that out @benz0li. @2659170494 does that sound right? You're trying to execute code-server in a JupyterLab Terminal?

@2659170494 Or any regular Terminal [other than code-server Terminal]?

code-server
Maybe, I use SSH to control my server. I haven't used other terminal software, and my server is an ordinary Ubuntu system (but I started the jupyterlab terminal mentioned by benz0li according to the link he gave, but the server was started incorrectly 🤔)。 I mean the conflict of startup commands. When I run code server, the server starts visual studio code server instead of code server. Visual studio code server replaces the startup command of code server during installation

If the server at https://demo.jupyter.b-data.ch does not start, simply give it another try.
@2659170494 When you talk about Visual Studio Code Server you mean https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/vscode-server, correct?
@2659170494当你谈论_Visual Studio Code Server_时，你的意思是 https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/vscode-server，对吗？
Yes, I have only recently obtained the qualification for internal testing
（但是我根据Benz0li给出的链接启动了benz0li提到的jupyterlab终端，但是服务器启动不正确🤔)
如果处于 https://demo.jupyter.b-data.ch 的服务器无法启动，只需再试一次即可。
OK, I just started it successfully😂
[Using wget -O- https://aka.ms/install-vscode-server/setup.sh | sh] Visual Studio Code Server installs at /usr/local/bin.
[Using dpkg -i code-server_4.6.0_amd64.deb] coder/code-server installs at /usr/bin.
$ cat /usr/bin/code-server
#!/usr/bin/env sh
exec /usr/lib/code-server/bin/code-server "$@"
ℹ️ I do not see any files getting overwritten.
But trying to start coder/code-server by executing code-server from within Visual Studio Code Server's integrated Terminal or vice versa will fail, because the PATH gets overwritten.
I advise against installing Visual Studio Code Server and coder/code-server on the same machine.
When I run code server, the server starts visual studio code server instead of code server. Visual studio code server replaces the startup command of code server during installation
No. /usr/local/bin simply takes precedence over /usr/bin.
echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

Yes, I know that. I can also start code server under the code folder of code server. However, I am more concerned about whether there are other startup commands for code server?
I am not sure I followed the issue, but if you install code-server then you install something else on the PATH that also has a binary called code-server, then there is nothing we can do about that conflict.

code-server is the only command we have.
