How to run the Raspberry pi 4B hardware on WSL

[Nainikas]

I’m on Windows 11 and I have installed WSL 2. The tutorials which do not need hardware seem to work fine but the LED Blinker kept giving me port errors despite the codes being ok. Maybe it’s because the WSL and ARM requirements do not match? Any idea on how to resolve it?

What error are you seeing? I suspect you need to enable GPIO on the pi.

Run this on the pi

sudo raspi-config
Select Interface options
Select Remote GPIO
Select Finished
Reboot the pi

Then try running the FSW again

Yes, I am. Is that not the right way?

[Nainikas]

Should I do it any other way?

[thomas-bc]

No this is the right way. At this point, I don't know what's wrong.

Maybe clone the project on the RaspberryPi and compile it natively there?

[Nainikas]

I did that too. It gives the same error! :(

Thank you for all your help! I got a response and solution from here, fprime-community/fprime-workshop-led-blinker#67

Looks like I had to change the GPIO addressing.
