Automatic updates fail

[sangchul]

While I was using code-server in my browser, "code-server has an update: v3.3.0" message was shown, but it couldn't finish the update because following exception was raised at server

error Error: https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/v3.3.0/code-server-v3.3.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz: 404

same here. The file code-server-v3.3.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz does not exist. Will this be fixed?

Link on releases page is
https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/v3.3.0/code-server-3.3.0-xxx
while the link updater want is (3.3.0 vs v3.3.0)
https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/v3.3.0/code-server-v3.3.0-xxx

I think they should update their files or we have to upgrade manually.

@tiborsekera
In https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/tag/v3.3.0

Yes you have to manually install now, we removed automatic updating.

See the release notes: https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/tag/v3.3.0

Will I lose my settings and extensions if I update manually from 3.2.0 to 3.3.0?

[tiborsekera]

I installed the new version from the code-server_3.3.1_amd64.deb and extensions and config files are kept, not lost, somehow.

[nhooyr]

Yes they are in the same directory and kept between versions.

@code-asher Maybe we should release 3.3.2 with extra files to keep the automatic updates working just until everyone has updated and they're gone?

[code-asher]

I'm not opposed to that. We'd just need the extra releases and a symlinked code-server and node I think?
