Accessing PostgreSQL (on wsl2) from DBeaver (on Windows) fails: "Connection refused: connect"

Asked 2022-Mar-17 at 04:30

What I'm trying is to use Postgres and access it from DBeaver.

Postgres is installed into wsl2 (Ubuntu 20)
DBeaver is installed into Windows 10

According to this doc, if you access an app running on Linuc from Windows, localhost can be used.

However...

Connection is refused with localhost. Also, I don't know what this message means: Connection refused: connect.

Does anyone see potential cause for this? Any advice will be appreciated.

Note:

The password should be fine. When I use psql in wsl2 and type in the password, psql is available with the password
I don't have Postgres on Windows' side. It exists only on wsl2

I found a solution by myself.

I just had to allow the TCP connection on wsl2(Ubuntu) and then restart postgres.

is/2is a buildin predicate that requires that the second argument is a term that is arithmetically resolvable (examples: 3+6, 7*3).

In your example, you use NewList is [H, Newlist1] where the second argument is a list and not an arithmetic expression. Therefore you get a type error. You should use the matching operator = instead.

The second problem with your code is that [H, Newlist1] builds up a nested list (it is a list of length 2, the first element is H and the second is the list Newlist1. Here is the corrected version of your code:

Try to run command netstat -nltp. It shows active addresses and ports. Your nginx process should be run at 0.0.0.0:8000. 0.0.0.0 means the nginx process is available from anywhere.

If your nginx process is ran by any specific ip address, you should access it by that ip address, e.g http://192.168.4.2:8000.

You are using nodeSelector for the pv, telling it to use node1 for the volume , chances are 1. node1 does not have /mnt/data directory present, which is hostPath for the volume. OR 2. node1 may be having /mnt/data, but the pod is getting scheduled on some other node which does not have /mnt/data directory:

QUESTION

Why is WSL extremely slow when compared with native Windows NPM/Yarn processing?

Asked 2022-Jan-06 at 00:43

I am working with WSL a lot lately because I need some native UNIX tools (and emulators aren't good enough). I noticed that the speed difference when working with NPM/Yarn is incredible.

I conducted a simple test that confirmed my feelings. The test was running npx create-react-app my-test-app and the WSL result was Done in 287.56s. while GitBash finished with Done in 10.46s..

This is not the whole picture, because the perceived time was higher in both cases, but even based on that - there is a big issue somewhere. I just don't know where. The project I'm working on uses tens of libraries and changing even one of them takes minutes instead of seconds.

Is this something that I can fix? If so - where to look for clues?

Additional info:

my processor: Processor AMD Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon Graphics, 3201 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 16 Logical Processors
I'm running Windows 11 with all the latest updates to both the system and the WSL. The chosen system is Ubuntu 20.04
I've seen some questions that are somewhat similar like 'npm install' extremely slow on Windows, but they don't touch WSL at all (and my pure Windows NPM works fast).
the issue is not limited to NPM, it's also for Yarn
another problem that I'm getting is that file watching is not happening (I need to restart the server with every change). In some applications I don't get any errors, sometimes I get the following:

Since you mention executing the same files (with proper performance) from within Git Bash, I'm going to make an assumption here. Correct me if I'm wrong on this, and I'll delete the answer and look for another possibility.

This would be explained (and expected) if your files are stored on /mnt/c (a.k.a. C:, or /C under Git Bash) or any other Windows drive, as they would likely need to be to be accessed by Git Bash.

WSL2 uses the 9P protocol to access Windows drives, and it is currently known to be very slow when compared to:

Native NTFS (obviously)
The ext4 filesystem on the virtual disk used by WSL2
And even the performance of WSL1 with Windows drives

I've seen a git clone of a large repo (the WSL2 Linux kernel Github) take 8 minutes on WSL2 on a Windows drive, but only seconds on the root filesystem.

Two possibilities:

If possible (and it is for most Node projects), convert your WSL to version 1 with wsl --set-version 1. I always recommend making a backup with wsl --export first.

And since you are making a backup anyway, you may as well just create a copy of the instance by wsl --importing your backup as --version 1 (as the last argument). WSL1 and WSL2 both have their uses, and you may find it helpful to keep both around.

See this answer for more details on the exact syntax..
Or just move the project over to somewhere under the WSL root, such as /home/username/src/.

I've tried to duplicate your problem with a fresh Debian under WSL install. I'm running Debian "bullseye" under WSL 1 under Windows 10. That Debian version must be a little newer than yours, since the GHC packages are version 8.8.4 instead of 8.4.4, but that seems to be the only difference.

Setting up JAVA_HOME in Ubuntu to point to Window's JAVA_HOME

Asked 2021-Dec-15 at 10:04

I tried to run Kafka on CMD in Windows and it's very unstable , constantly giving errors. Then I came across this post, which suggests installing Ubuntu and run Kafka from there.

I have installed Ubuntu successfully. Given that I have already defined JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_231 as one of the environmental variables and CMD recognizes this variable but Ubuntu does not, I am wondering how to make Ubuntu recognize this because at the moment, when i typed java -version, Ubuntu returns command not found.

Update: Please note that I have to have Ubuntu's JAVA_HOME pointing to the evironmental variable JAVA_HOME defined in my Window system. Because my Java program in eclipse would need to talk to Kafka using the same JVM.

I have added the two lines below in my /etc/profile file. echo $JAVA_HOME returns the correct path. However, java -version returns a different version of Java installed on Ubuntu, not the one defined in the /etc/profile
