[BUG] wsl.conf not created after configuration changes #185

Closed tempwswm closed 1 year ago

tempwswm commented 1 year ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

Current Behavior

I tried to change the host for instance using this software, but it did not work, I checked that the wsl file was not created, I created it manually and it was not modified.

Expected Behavior

The file needs to be created and contain key-value pairs.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. create an instance using dockerhub:debian:bullseye
  2. passwd root manually
  3. install nano sudo git
  4. stop instance
  5. change hostname setting using this software
  6. not work
  7. echo -e "[network]\nhostname=guitest" >> /etc/wsl.conf
  8. it works
  9. change hostname setting using this software again
  10. not work

Environment

- Windows Version: "Windows 10 Pro" 10.0 (Build 19045)
- WSL Distro Manager Version:WSL Manager v1.8.4 on windows
- WSL Version:2
- Source: GitHub releases

Anything else?

The lines you provided are only when you create a user for non-docker images.

I tried reproducing your steps, but it works for me:

cat /etc/wsl.conf
[network]
hostname = testhost
