Windows WSL Related Setup #2878

Closed Griodin closed 4 years ago

Griodin commented 4 years ago

I'm submitting a ... Possible update to Windows 10 Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) Related Setup steps or added information. You may use this or not as you desire.

Action taken (what you did) I was only able to get this to work by changing the version of node to 8.11.3. I also had too make sure AVG Antivirus/Firewall/Windows Firewall settings allowed bash.exe/port 3000 TCP/UDP traffic. Unfortunately, I was all over the place resolving this issue so I can't provide steps. The following are the steps I took to get things working that I was able to record, just in case you see some ideas to add to the documentation.

sudo apt-get update nvm use 8.11.3 sudo apt-get install -y nodejs sudo apt-get install -y build-essential

sudo apt-get install git

git clone git://github.com/askmike/gekko.git cd gekko npm install --only=production cd exchange npm install --only=production cd ..

Not related but notable mentions (in my opinion):

- VcXsrv, Windows X Server https://sourceforge.net/projects/vcxsrv/ Allows opening sublime text editor (or other gui linux applications) in Windows via X Server and connect directly to the Linux folders for editing directly. Without this or another solution, you may have issues editing files.

wget -qO - https://download.sublimetext.com/sublimehq-pub.gpg | sudo apt-key add - sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https echo "deb https://download.sublimetext.com/ apt/stable/" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sublime-text.list sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install sublime-text

DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 export DISPLAY subl

Once running, for clipboard between Windows and Sublime you may need to disable the "Clipboard may use PRIMARY selection" setting in VxXsrv. Taskbar Notification > Right Click "X" icon >

- Forgotten password to WSL: https://winaero.com/blog/reset-password-wsl-linux-distro-windows-10/ From DOS ubuntu config --default-user root ubuntu.exe # (to run WSL in the current Windows command prompt) whoami # (to see who I'm currently logged in as) tail -3 /etc/passwd # (to see the last three users added to the Ubuntu system) passwd user01 # (to change the password for user01) exit # (to exit WSL) ubuntu config --default-user user01 # (to set the default user for the WSL terminal)

- WSL2 There is experimental WSL2 but this requires non-released version of Windows as of 12/22/2019. This version allows mapping with windows for using VSCode and other editors. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/wsl2-install
