Rstudio for rocker/verse 4.1.2 seems not to support simultaneous sessions. #487

Hi. Thanks again for this excellent project. And apologies in advance if I should be asking my question somewhere else.

I have rocker/verse-based images for, e.g. R 3.6.3 and R 4.0.5 that support containers serving simultaneous RStudio sessions, i.e. separate browser tabs for separate projects. If I open a third session for R 4.1.2, all three sessions (tabs) begin to "refresh" periodically, several times per minute, possibly resetting the file pane current directory. A single R 4.1.2 session does not have this problem, but a pair of R 4.1.2 sessions does. I see the same phenomena in Edge and Firefox, under Windows 10 Enterprise. Any suggestions for further exploration?

Best,

Tim

I noticed it too, but I don't think it is "us". I.e. over the years working with containers and Rocker, I tended to generally also run both rstudio desktop and server on my machine. And IIRC the server instance used to happily coexist, if at the cost of a port redirect to, say, 8788. No more. I now have to stop my outer rstudio-server if I want to quickly check something on a container that comprises rstudio (which by nature of Docker and headless computing is rstudio-server).

Apologies, I didn't notice this was still open. Indeed, RStudio has conceded that it is "them": https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/10808 . Not sure when they will be addressing it.
