Hi there, are you running a development or production server here? I assume it’s development?
It’s self hosted, so I’m trying to test discourse out
WSL is not a supported Production configuration (but a great choice for development)
Oh, are there other ways for windows?
Yes, but you’d be mainly on your own with limited support here.
A cloud Ubuntu VPS is the recommended and supported platform.
WSL makes sense if you are a wizard 
and prepared to work out most issues on your own.

The cloud VM is if you want to host a production instance. If you want to use WSL for development, follow this guide. If you want to do it for production, then, well, it won’t be easy (and you also won’t want to run your computer 24/7).
