I'm having trouble getting my RStudio Server up and running, I'm almost there, but I keep getting stuck with the message R is taking longer to start then usual (See below)
My logon procedure is as follows:
START RSTUDIO SERVER
Open a new terminal
ssh USER@DOMAIN
Enter USER/PASS and 2FA pass
qsub interactive session
module load VARIOUS NEEDED
module load rstudio-server/1.3.1073
rstudio-server start &
LOGIN TO RSTUDIO SERVER SESSION
Open a new terminal
From the above interactive session, get the assigned node, e.g. SERVERNAME
ssh -L 8787:SERVERNAME:8787 USER@DOMAIN
Enter USER/PASS and 2FA pass
Open a new browser window
Go to http://localhost:8787/
Enter user/pass
However, I never get to enter user/pass for RStudio server, but get stuck at the below and clicking any of the buttons makes no difference
Any hints on why I cannot seem to start R would be HIGHLY appreciated!
This is a rather unusual set-up. Who has designed it? Does it work for other people? Is R on the PATH before you start rstudio-server? Are there any error messages in the log files?
It runs on an HPC cluster and yes R is available in the PATH after loading modules. It was designed på the linux sysadmins at the HPC-facility to ensure billing-capability of the processes. Hence, the interactive session on an assigned, which is then subsequently logged into. I know they did a workaround to ensure that rstudio-server is not running as root.
I don't have access to any sys-file, but I'm trying to schedule a meeting with the sysadmin, so I'm basically looking for pointers
