Nudge on this post. As a team of two we are currently unable to both use our hosted Rstudio instance at the same time since I cannot seem to be able to create a new rstudio user in the same way when running via rocker/verse Docker container.
I'm reading this page of the rocker site: https://www.rocker-project.org/use/managing_users/
But it's unclear if I should be able to add a new user to rstudio in the usual way by just using linux commands sudo useradd like I tried?
According to this askubuntu post:
Every user in the linux system can login in the rstudio IDE, unless you limit it, for example to certain groups:
more /etc/rstudio/rserver.conf
# Server Configuration File
rsession-which-r=/usr/local/bin/R
So no restrictions.
I created a new user dave with sudo add user and then set a password with sudo passwd dave
cut -d: -f1 /etc/passwdroot
daemon
bin
sys
sync
games
man
lp
mail
news
uucp
proxy
www-data
backup
list
irc
gnats
nobody
_apt
rstudio-server
rstudio
shiny
dave
So, new user dave is there along with rstudio and shiny.
But, when I go tot he rstudio login screen and try to login as dave with the newly created password for dave, the screen blanks out and I am unable to login. I get the error message above in the screen shot.
