Error starting Rstudio in Ubuntu

RStudio IDE
1

I am getting the following error when booting Rstudio in Ubuntu 24.10 using the snap version of Rstudio (version 2025.09.2). Running $ rstudio
gives the message:
[utils.ts] [createStandaloneErrorDialog] Error when creating Standalone Error Dialog: Error: application not set
at o (/snap/rstudio/25/resources/app/.webpack/main/index.js:8:59850)
at t.createStandaloneErrorDialog (/snap/rstudio/25/resources/app/.webpack/main/index.js:2:349611)
at Object.main (/snap/rstudio/25/resources/app/.webpack/main/index.js:2:314796)
Unexpected end of JSON input

Any insights are appreciated!

We (Posit) don't provide a snap package for RStudio, so whatever you are using was not built by us.

What happens if you try to boot from a Terminal or GUI?. We need to know if the problem is R or Rstudio.
