Bun is currently a hot trend so there will be many people using it and can be used for production so there will be a lot of issues so hopefully bun will be even stronger in the future.
I think I had the same issue once, but it wasn't related to Bun. As long as you create your projects inside your WSL directories and the npm
command is called from your WSL, you shouldn't have any problem.
I tried to reproduce your error, but didn't have any problems as I ran bun create react-app
and npm run start
using WSL only. But I had a similar error when I tried to run npm run start
using Powershell.
Thus, try to run npm run start
using your WSL (via Windows Terminal or your Linux distro CLI). You can access your Windows files from your WSL using cd /mnt/c/Users/pathToFolder/reactAppName
and then npm run start
.
Hope it helps !

The issue is not that, the issue is bun is starting npm in windows path and not Linux path so npm fails because current path (linux) doesn't match the path it was told (the windows path)

Ok, then where is located your npm
command when you run which npm
in your WSL ? I'm using NVM and I got this result :
/home/Username/.nvm/versions/node/v16.14.2/bin/npm
Any update @patr543a ?

This is what i get /mnt/c/Program Files/nodejs//npm

Okay, I'm pretty sure the problem lie in your Node installation on your WSL because npm
command calls Windows Node.js installation and not the WSL one. You should try to reinstall Node.js on your WSL using a version manager like NVM. Windows provided a tutorial on how to do it : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/dev-environment/javascript/nodejs-on-wsl

@patr543a I am having the same exact issue in my vscode WSL terminal. Did you ever fix your problem?
What version of Bun is running?
1.0.2+37edd5a6e389265738e89265bcbdf2999cb81a49
What platform is your computer?
Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.19045.0 x64
What steps can reproduce the bug?
bun create react-app reactAppName
What is the expected behavior?
It creates the app without any errors
What do you see instead?
I get an error that says:
Could not start an npm process in the right directory.
The current directory is: /mnt/c/Users/pathToFolder/reactAppName However, a newly started npm process runs in: C:\Users\pathToFolder\reactAppName
This is probably caused by a misconfigured system terminal shell. error: "create-react-app" exited with code 1 (SIGHUP)
Additional information
the termial is at a different path in wsl than what it's trying to access, the final location is the same due to how wsl works but the result is that npm thinks it's different causing issues.
