Installing code-server on WSL2 so I can use my more powerful desktop computer to do dev work while on the road or when I cannot use my personal laptop (ie. at work).
I ran curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh to install and then tried to run sudo systemctl enable --now code-server@$USER to have it auto boot. But when I do I get this error
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/default.target.wants/code-server@ben.service → /lib/systemd/system/code-server@.service.
System has not been booted with systemd as init system (PID 1). Can't operate.
Failed to connect to bus: Host is down
Maybe I don't fully understand how WSL works or maybe there is another command I could use. I did some googleing and some posts recommend using service for other applications running on WSL but I don't think that will work for code-server.
How can I make this work? or do I need to?
- Web Browser: N/A
- Local OS: Windows 10
- Remote OS: Ubuntu (WSL 2) on Windows 10
- Remote Architecture: amd64
code-server --version: 3.8.1
PS: running code-server works great and I am able to access it in my browser.
