Was trying to check if there's a new version of RStudio Server, but encountered a 2023 version on this page:
That can't be right. The version I'm running is 2024.12.1. Not necessarily needing an updated version, but I was just surprised to see a version from 2023 listed.
It gets even goofier. The link you posted (which contains an option setting after a question mark) leads to a page showing the current version (2025.05.0) for all distributions. Without the option, the link RStudio Server - Posit leads me to a page showing the (very) outdated version for Fedora/RedHat and SLES/OpenSUSE and what I think are garbage links for Debian/Ubuntu.
hah! you are right. appending a question mark (?) at the end of the url solves the issue. i think they have a bug on their frontend.
for those checking out this discussion use https://posit.co/download/rstudio-server/? for the latest versions of rstudio server.
For anyone who's run into this issue, can you check if things are working correctly? I can't verify it since I didn't run into the problem in the first place.
Also, if you are still running into the issue, what happens if you try different browsers?
I'm now seeing what look like correct wget instructions, with one possible exception. The instructions for Ubuntu 22 (Jammy Jellyfish) and Ubuntu 24 (Noble Numbat) both say wget https://download2.rstudio.org/server/jammy/amd64/rstudio-server-2025.05.1-513-amd64.deb. If the binary for Jammy is also the correct binary for Noble, that's fine.
@prubin Thank you for checking! And yes, it's the same binary.
