Unable to Connect to WSL Setup

rickd · September 4, 2023, 8:53pm

Ive installed Cursor, and trying to integrate it with WSL. The terminal opens in WSL which is great but when I try and connect to WSL, as I want to open windows/projects etc. But here is whats happening.

I connect via here:

Then i get these logs:

Sorry about this! Just to confirm, are you running “Connect to WSL” from Cursor itself? After installing the WSL plugin and hitting ctrl + shift + p?

rickd · September 6, 2023, 2:24pm

Yep correct. Just to confirm, as it stands as I’m not connected it doesn’t allow me to open folders/projects from within WSL.

rickd · September 13, 2023, 10:17am

Hey there. Any updates. Really would love to start using this project.

ara · September 16, 2023, 4:04am

Hey, would also love to be able to use WSL with cursor!

hoektoe · September 20, 2023, 6:04am

Would also like to use WSL2 with cursor and even open folders using cursor .

Guess will have to wait to use this product until then

tiborrr · September 20, 2023, 8:52am

This worked fine just a few hours ago. After installing an update it doesn’t work anymore. Please fix this soon. I cannot work now

truell20 · September 20, 2023, 3:35pm

Sorry about this @tiborrr. Temporary workaround here: Can't connect to remote ssh server after recent update - #5 by truell20

tiborrr · October 9, 2023, 9:19am

@truell20 can I upgrade to the latest version? Has this issue been fixed?

rossgalloway · October 11, 2023, 6:42pm

It seems the newest WSL extension requires VSCode 1.81.0, while Cursor uses 1.80.1. This wasn’t letting me connect to WSL.

Got it working by installing an older version of the WSL extension (0.80.2).

truell20 · October 11, 2023, 9:05pm

Yes! Believe so

truell20 · October 11, 2023, 9:06pm

Ack sorry about this, downgrading should work for the time being.

Going forward, our next major update should have a fix for this.

pmetzdorf · October 23, 2023, 11:32am

Hi @truell20, not to chase, but is there a timeline for that then?

truell20 · October 23, 2023, 5:58pm

If you redownload from https://cursor.sh, the newest version should be up to date with the latest VSCode base. Still working out an SSH problem before releasing to everyone.

thomas · December 11, 2023, 2:46pm

Hey I am having a similiar problem.

I have one windows 10pro pc where cursor works totally fine remotely connecting to WSL.

However on my other PC it isn’t. I try every couple of days but I cant figured it out.

I ran the “Fix WSL install” command.

My log shows cursor is trying to install a vs code server from an url which gives it a 404.

The same issue is occurred in latest version

Jakob · January 9, 2024, 1:16pm

Update 0.22.0 has some WSL fixes. Do they fix your issues?

nyck3333 · February 23, 2024, 11:30am

version 0.27 something still get

amanrs · February 23, 2024, 7:57pm

what do you see in your installed extensions (specifically a screenshot of wsl)?

nyck3333 · February 24, 2024, 1:38am

That’s Cursor in Windows.
