I had a lot of trouble with WSL when it comes to networking. The problem is it doesn't always open up or forward ports through to the host and subsequently the firewall. You can Google around for solutions, but I remember when I was playing around with it I had to find some net cmds to open and Forward the necessary ports. May be easier to use a vm 🙂 |

I was able to access WAS to setup the configuration by using http://localhost:8501/. After that I had to use a netsh command in powershell to get WAS to connect correctly. netsh interface portproxy add v4tov4 listenport=8502 listenaddress= connectport=8502 connectaddress= |

Yes Docker/WSL. I'm in the same scenario as the OP. |

The biggest challenge is with the networking forwarding out of WSL to the host. Looks like some improvements may have been made to that: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/windows-subsystem-for-linux-september-2023-update/ I think that mirroring option may help here. |

Firstly, thanks for an awesome project!
Secondly on the github page the link adress is wrong to direct you to the heywillow.io page it brings up https://github.com/toverainc/willow/blob/main/heywillow.io
O.k so following along on the getting started page:
I run the comand to create the docker container and it seems to work. I get the follwing in the terminal on docker desktop (windows 11)
So to access the WAS I try the following web addresses, making sure I dont block any insecure websites...
http://10.214.1.252:8501 - this is the pc ip address
http://172.27.0.1:8501 - WSL adapter when I do a ipconfig
http://222.153.107.159:8501 - as above
http://192.168.65.4:8501 - as above
http://127.0.0.1:8501 - worth a try
but non land me on a webpage.
when I go to the inspect tab it says the both ports unbound.
Thank you for your help! :)
Cheers
Lawrence
