Cannot access netdata on wsl2

I installed netdata on wsl2 Ubuntu20.04.
Then, when I visited localhost:19999, it prompted localhost rejected our connection request.
And ufw is not running.

Hey,

This is interesting and buffling. Can you please try to curl the dashboard from inside the WSL terminal?

By default, it should just work ™️

i noticed this too recently myself - will see if i can recreate on my end and help debug too.

looks like it installed ok

but indeed connection refused for my local netdata

note: i was able to curl to london demo just to be sure.

Could be related to this: WSL2 cannot connect to localhost when the service is running on Windows · Issue #5211 · microsoft/WSL · GitHub

I’ve had a few issues with it before.

yes
‘curl 127.0.0.1:19999’ works normally

emm
Interestingly, I just tried it again
It was found to be operating normally.
And when I posted this question, I made many attempts, such as accessing the ip of wsl, restarting wsl, and restarting the entire computer, but none of them worked.

Time will solve everything
xdddd

So, now you can access the dashboard from a dashboard running on the windows machine or only from a curl in WSL ?

This is super interesting for us since we have a whole blog post focussing on Netdata + Windows, so we want to make sure that it’s accurate. Thanks for the info!

lol - i still cant get mine working now :slight_smile:
