Trouble installing code-server on a company RHEL machine

[wlandau]

I would like to use code-server to develop projects remotely on my company's RHEL/SGE cluster. When I run the install script, I get the following errors. Is there a way to install code server locally without needing root priveleges?

curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh

Yep, it looks like the script tried to install with rpm. You can also install code-server with npm, manually building, or downloading the binary from the releases page. It's in the bin/ folder

Thanks, unpacking the binary for my architecture seems to have worked.
