Hi
I trying to start studying what are ardupilot and SITL.
I tried to do full install two times and have no luck.
My config is Windows 10 + WSL2 + Ubuntu from MS store (22.04.3 LTS release)
Also I installed VcXsrv - firstly I tried 21.1.10 x64 version, then 1.20.14.0 x64. I run Xserv in multiwindow mode. The app enabled in the Windows Firewall.
So on first try remember I installed xserv ver 21 and run it, installed and updated Ubuntu, then cloned Ardupilot repo and setup dependencies. After that I don’t remember did I refresh the profile but I launched simulation (may be a coule of times) and saw a couple of new X app windows. First seems run ok, second said the port is already used.
No windows with a map or anything else.
I closed these apps with [ x ] and after that, I haven’t seen a properly run simulation anymore.
Whenever I try to run it - I see that it can’t connect to the port 4 times and then exits.
Then I tried to install everything from scratch - reinstalled Ubuntu distro, and ardupilot. Installed xserv ver 1.20.
This time I haven’t no single succeeded run…
The error:
Build commands will be stored in build/sitl/compile_commands.json
'build' finished successfully (1.590s)

Be noted that it doesn’t complain that it can’t open display.
How I installed it in the Ubuntu:
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
nano ~/.bashrc
# Export Display for XWindows
# For WLS1
# export DISPLAY=0:0
# For WSL2
export DISPLAY=$(grep -m 1 nameserver /etc/resolv.conf | awk '{print $2}'):0
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot.git
cd ardupilot
./Tools/environment_install/install-prereqs-ubuntu.sh -y
. ~/.profile
sudo usermod -a -G dialout $USER
sim_vehicle.py -v ArduCopter --console --map -w
So what did I do wrong or what it could be?
Help pls
