Hi! I am a new user of Debian and am having an issue loading RStudio Server, which may or may not be related to a previous 'Release file expiration error' when trying to perform apt-get update prior to installing r-base into my remote Debian system.
E: Release file for http://mirror.optus.net/debian/dists/jessie-updates/InRelease is expired (invalid since 13d 17h 49min 2s). Updates for this repository will not be applied. To work around the release file error I executed the following command which then allowed R to be installed: $ sudo apt-get -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false update I then added this line to etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://cran.csiro.au/bin/linux/debian jessie-cran3/ Next I added the appropriate key, and performed the above command to update the system again so R could be reinstalled: $ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 381BA480 $ sudo apt-get -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false update $ sudo apt-get install r-base This gave me the newest version of R. I then installed RStudio, but when I attempted to access the server from my browser it fails to load. $ wget https://download2.rstudio.org/rstudio-server-0.99.489-amd64.deb $ sudo gdebi rstudio-server-0.99.489-amd64.deb I have attempted to troubleshoot, but from my terminal everything seems to be okay: debian@r-docs-debian2:~$ sudo rstudio-server verify-installation debian@r-docs-debian2:~$ sudo rstudio-server restart debian@r-docs-debian2:~$ sudo rstudio status sudo: rstudio: command not found debian@r-docs-debian2:~$ sudo rstudio-server status ● rstudio-server.service - RStudio Server Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/rstudio-server.service; enabled) Active: active (running) since Thu 2015-11-26 15:03:39 AEDT; 58s ago Process: 19464 ExecStop=/usr/bin/killall -TERM rserver (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 19465 ExecStart=/usr/lib/rstudio-server/bin/rserver (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 19467 (rserver) CGroup: /system.slice/rstudio-server.service └─19467 /usr/lib/rstudio-server/bin/rserver Nov 26 15:03:39 r-docs-debian2 systemd[1]: Starting RStudio Server...

I would like to get RStudio working on a Debian system as I am using the information for some internal documentation for how to use R and RStudio in the cloud. Many thanks!
