Hi @NotAlone777 - sorry to here isn't not working as expected.

I was able to get code-server 3.9.0 installed on Termux following these steps (thanks to @GNUxeava).

Can you please try again?

1. Update Termux by running apt update && apt upgrade
2. Install required packages with apt install build-essential python git nodejs yarn
3. Install code-server with yarn global add code-server
4. Run code-server with code-server

I'm having exactly the same issue as @NotAlone777 . Have you resolved this?

@starryalley did you try following these steps?

And if you don't mind, can you post your OS information:

• Web Browser:
• Local OS:
• Remote OS:
• Remote Architecture:
• code-server --version:

I'm not sure why it's failing...You could also try yarn global remove code-server to start over.

Yes I followed the exact step. I'm running on termux (latest on F-droid) on my Android 11 Samsung S21. code-server cannot be installed due to the same error seen by @NotAlone777 so it's not able to yarn global remove it.

It's worth mentioning that I first installed termux from Google Play (the deprecated version) and followed the same step. No errors seen there and I can successfully run code-server without problem. Any idea?

Never mind @jsjoeio , I think it's my setup issue.

After running
export LD_PRELOAD=${PREFIX}/lib/libtermux-exec.so as noted from here, I'm able to install code-server without issue now. Thanks.

Ahhh! Interesting. Glad you found that and were able to get it working. I installed Termux from Google Play too, maybe I have a newer version.

Thanks for posting the solution! 🙌

@NotAlone777 are you able to see if this solution works for you as well? Then we could close this issue.

Thank you, according to your method, I successfully installed.
