Error connecting to Remote SSH
Trying to connect to my EC2 instance using remote SSH and failing to do so. Getting the following error:

Does it work in normal VSCode?
Yes
Are you using the exact same config for VSCode and SSH? On first glance, this looks like your key/ip/username/password/etc is off?
I am using the same config for VSCode and SSH. It's working fine with VSCode but giving errors with Cursor.
Could you share a bit more about your SSH config for this server? Are you doing anything special? (e.g. using a proxy jump)
Not doing anything special Here is how my .ssh config file looks like:
Host ec2-chat-instance
HostName *****.ap-south-1.compute.amazonaws.com
User ec2-user
IdentityFile ~/name.pem
@truell20 the issue is the same as #915, either that you all aren't uploading the associated remote extensions with your updates or you're pointing Cursor to the wrong URLs to download the REH. I have no issues with VS Code SSH but I can't SSH into anything with Cursor because of this same issue as @shagunhexo
The URL that's expected to resolve with the installation script is https://cursor.blob.core.windows.net/remote-releases/0.13.4-fe924b35718993dc0821b4583f718e4cbe79b330/vscode-reh-win32-x64.tar.gz
It doesn't exist.
PLEASE fix this as soon as you can, I do most of my development on machines I SSH into and not being able to develop with Cursor this way is making me really frustrated. Sucks to go back to VS Code for this 😅😅
Here is what the full "Error resolving authority" error looks like, see the URL in REQUEST_ARGUMENTS

@jayhickey Am I correct that you're trying to SSH into a windows machine? Unfortunately, we don't currently support SSHing into Mac or Windows machines.
Oh wow I didn't know they aren't supported. Yeah Windows and Macs are what I SSH into.
Any plans to add support or is it possible to fallback to the VS Code SSH host extension?
Hi,
I just ran into this issue (SSH into a Windows machine). I wish I had known this before I upgraded to Pro.
Is there any ETA for SSH into Windows being supported?
I am having this issue connecting to a ubuntu server. Same problems as OP. Works in VSCode. Even works SSHing into a different server, just not this particular one. I deleted .cursor-server on the host, no change.

I have the same issue trying to SSH into an Ubuntu Machine from a Mac. That is the only reason I still use VSCode
Same (Trying to SSH from MacOS -> Ubuntu, working in vscode)
Also trying to SSH from MacOS to Ubuntu. Working fine in vscode.
I have the same issue
Is there any workaround for this yet?
I have the same issue

VSCode works like a charm. Any update on this?
I have the same issue. It is surprising that it has not yet been resolved.
Also having this issue.
+1
Cursor is much better than VS Code, but unfortunately I cannot completely migrate due to this issue. :'(
Also having this issue. I routinely connect to 2 servers via ssh, everything works well with VS Code, but Cursor can only connect to one server. For the other, it fails key auth, asks for password, fails again.

same :((
Cursor Version: 0.29.1 VSCode Version: 1.86.2 MAC OS 14.4.1
For me, it does work SSH From Mac/Windows to Ubuntu, but not from Windows to Mac.
can fix this issue? it's very inconvenient, I have to use vscode to do ssh remote dev since this issue
This issue makes the app unusable for me
was this ever resolved, still having the same issue for a linux machine
@michaelhla
The team doesn't think this is a high priority for some reason.
I guess just go back to vs code
