404 when code-server is downloading a newer release

[keiththomps]

When prompted to install a new version through the UI I'm receiving a 404 error downloading the newest release. It appears to be caused by the versions 3.30 and later being tagged with a v3.3.0 but the associated release file name doesn't include the v.

Here's the URL being used to download the newest release vs the newest release's actual URL:

Attempted (404 error): https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/v3.4.0/code-server-v3.4.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
Actual: https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/v3.4.0/code-server-3.4.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz

This could be "fixed" in the code here, but it might just be a consistency issue that can be addressed moving forward by adjusting the tag names and files to match.

• Web Browser: Chrome
• Local OS: macOS 10.15.4
• Remote OS: CentOS 7.8.2003
• Remote Architecture: x86_64
• code-server --version: 3.2.0

Should just work now!

Published https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/tag/3.4.0

Sorry about this!

I think this is a misunderstanding. The URL requested by code-server has a "v" before the version number, inside the file name. And that's what we need to update. A filename with "v3..4.0" in it.
Removing the "v" from the tag won't help unfortunately.

When this is fixed, these URLs should work:
https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/v3.4.0/code-server-v3.4.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/v3.4.0/code-server-v3.4.0-linux-arm64.tar.gz

It has a v because it’s filling the latest release tag into the template. With the v removed it should just work.

Argh this is going to break the install script though. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[nhooyr]

Fixing.

[KolyaKorruptis]

In any case, it didn't find an arm64 release.

[nhooyr]

Should be fixed as part of the install script fixes.

[nhooyr]

i.e literally just fixed a few seconds ago

It's still failing here.
Requested URL: https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/3.4.0/code-server-3.4.0-linux-arm64.tar.gz
Actual URL: https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/3.4.0/code-server-3.4.0-linux-arm64.tar

So close!

macOS ungzipped it automatically. 🤦
