Thank you.

Later I will check what it the IP assignment, maybe indeed that is the problem. But in general I may live on wsl1, as I have a dedicated instance just for electrs. What worries me is that one day there will be an automatic (forced) update to wsl2.

One thing that could be (but I may be totally off) may be an IP address problem.

For example my bitcoin.conf contains

Code: (bitcoin.conf)
rpcbind=127.0.0.1
rpcallow=127.0.0.1

and I've read that

If you rely on a Linux distribution to have an IP address in the same network as your host machine, you may need to set up a workaround in order to run WSL 2.

That same page also tells about "strict memory requirements" which may or may not be a problem.

Hello

Is there any known problem with running electrs on WSL 2?
I have Debian WSL 1 and all works, after migration to WSL2 server does not start (cannot connect to daemon or has RPC problem, dunno).
When I migrated back to WSL1, all works.
I do not need WSL2, but I am curious what's going on. Any ideas?
