Opening WSL/WSL2 from local installation (Host) is not working

[alefragnani]

With the release of #345, you are now able to save/open remote projects (Docker and SSH) right from your local installation.

But it appears, based on reports, that WSL/WSL2 is not working.

This issue is to track specifically the support for WSL/WSL remote projects.

Let me know if you need something tested on Windows 10 with WSL1.

Also if you need something tested on WSL 2 I can try it.

Just released 11.0.1 yesterday, and based on this comment it appears WSL is working.

Could you try it? You just have to re-save the projects, to properly update its path.

Thank you

Seems to work! Awesome! 🎉

Thanks for all the effort :)

Few small things I noticed:

It says Path does not exist when I select List projects to open but doesn't seem to matter.

And when I'm in a WSL project, it shows all projects (including the current) when I select List projects to open but when I'm in a normal project, it shows all minus the current.

@Christilut , That’s great to hear it’s working!

When you say Path does not exist, are you talking about the detail below the project name, in Command Palette? I now noticed that, at least 😬 .

I could reproduce the show/not show behavior you reported. I’ll open a new issue for that too.

So now, I just need confirmation WSL2 is working too. Let’s hope for the best 😄

Thank you

[Christilut]

Yep in the Command Palette

WSL2 seems to work too, but with the same behavior as Christilut mentioned.

That’s great to hear!

I’ll open two separate issues, relatives to the scenarios described by @Christilut .

Thank you for reporting
