Switch from RStudio Server Pro to RStudio Open Source.

[beergt]

Hello Everyone,

I have one server with RStudio Server Pro installed now. We plan to buy a new server and switch the Pro license from the old one to the new server.

I found that the old RStudio Server Pro will die in 45 days.
However, I would like to keep the RStudio Server in the old server alive. Is it possible to switch RStudio Server Pro to Open-Source version?

Thanks!

YiJu

Found the answer in RStudio Support link.

You'll need to uninstall the Pro version and then install using the open-source binaries.
Based on the answer from RStudio Support, downgrading shouldn't have any effect on your existing R packages or projects. However you may want to check and make sure you're not using any Pro-specific features in your environment, as those will be disabled on downgrade.

FAQ: How do I mark a solution?

If your question has been answered, don't forget to mark the solution! How do I mark a solution? Find the reply you want to mark as the solution and look for the row of small gray icons at the bottom of that reply. Click the one that looks like a box with a checkmark in it: [image] Hovering over the mark solution button shows the label, "Select if this reply solves the problem". If you don't see the mark solution button, try clicking the three dots button ( ••• ) to expand the full set of options. When a solution is chosen, the icon turns green and the hover label changes to: "Unselect if this reply no longer solves the problem". Success! [solution_reply_author] …
