Stucked when Installing miniforge on ubuntu server

Comment:

When I installed miniforge by:

bash Miniforge3-24.7.1-2-Linux-x86_64.sh -b -p $HOME/.mamba

PREFIX=/data/yanjiaqi/.mamba

Transaction
  
  Prefix: /data/yanjiaqi/.mamba/envs/_virtual_specs_checks

  All requested packages already installed

Dry run. Not executing the transaction.

when ps waux | grep whoami

it showed so many /data/yanjiaqi/.mamba/bin/python3.12 -Wi -u /data/yanjiaqi/.mamba/install_tmp/mambaf8v4WL4CMuF processes with status S+.

do you have a previous installation by any chance? there are bugs with installing when conda or mamba already exists.

no, it's a new installation on a AMD CPUS Ubuntu server. the problem has been solved by administrator loging as the user account to install. the only differences which I known was sh Miniforge3-24.7.1-2-Linux-x86_64.sh and I used bash Miniforge3-24.7.1-2-Linux-x86_64.sh.

btw: the stucked problem happened in differen accounts.

I canot remake the problem on my own PC so I dont know if it's the reason.

I tried to use sh to install Miniforge in #655 seems to work. (the other failures are due to docker failing to find an image... grrrr)

Maybe we have some incompatibility with ${HOME}/.mamba

I'm tempted to close since it seems like you have moved on, but if you hit this again, do recomment and we can reopen.

I have finished bash to install miniforge on other ubuntu server. So the stucked process was caused by server settings maybe.

Would highly recommend using tmux or GNU screen when running things on a remote machine

Too many things can go wrong with the connection. So these two tools are quite helpful as they keep the session running (even if you have been disconnected)
