WSL 2 : Pycharm debugger connection time out

8
votes

I set up Pycharm to use a virtualenv inside wls 2,
It works fine, I mean, I can run my project throught the button "run",
The problem is I can't use the debugger, it's says connection time out, let me show you the full [erros][1].
('Connecting to ', '172.21.176.1', ':', '63597')
Could not connect to 172.21.176.1: 63597

It seems that when I run with debug mode, It wants to connect to 172.21.176.1 (wsl 2 ip adress),
but it should connect to 127.0.0.1 because the process is launched by ubuntu2004.exe.
Can you help me?

any solution yet? - PATAPOsha
@PATAPOsha, not yet but I have some hypothesis. If i can set the --listen paramter to localhost, I think it will works. The problem is that it wants to connect to 172.21.176.1 (wls 2 "public" adress). Busy right now, and will dig it after. - m0r7y
Because when I connect to the postgresql (inside the wsl) instance, I use localhost not 172.21.176.1 when I configured my Pycharm to use WSL. - m0r7y
replacing wls 2 "public" adress with localhost leads to ConnectionRefusedError: [Errno 111] Connection refused for me. tried from cmd - PATAPOsha
@PATAPOsha, You don't have to replace the wls 2 "public" adress. What you have to do is replacing the debugeur parameter --client 172.21.176.1 (sorry, it's client not listen) to 127.0.0.1. (You can see all python debugeur parameter in traceback above). - m0r7y

Firewall was the case. Unbloking connections from Pycharm (Eset firewall in my case) helped. See https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-39051

It's hard to tell where this could be going wrong but you can try to reconfigure your interpreter to use host and port of your choice; the GUI instance is shown in the image.
