- The `vm.max_map_count` setting must be set in the "docker-desktop" WSL instance before the
403
- ElasticSearch container will properly start. There are several ways to do this, depending
404
- on your version of Windows and your version of WSL.
405
-
406
- If you are on Windows 10 before version 22H2, or if you are on Windows 10 version 22H2 using the
407
- built-in version of WSL, you must either manually set it every time you restart Docker before starting
408
- your ElasticSearch container, or (if you do not wish to do so on every restart) you must globally set
409
- every WSL2 instance to have the `vm.max_map_count` changed. This is because these versions of WSL
410
- do not properly process the /etc/sysctl.conf file.
411
-
412
- To manually set it every time you reboot, you must run the following commands in a command prompt
413
- or PowerShell window every time you restart Docker:
402
+ The `vm.max_map_count` setting must be set in the docker-desktop container:
414

415
404
[source,sh]
416

--------------------------------------------
417
- wsl -d docker-desktop -u root
406
+ wsl -d docker-desktop
418
407
sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

408
--------------------------------------------
420
409
421
- If you are on these versions of WSL and you do not want to have to run those commands every
422
- time you restart Docker, you can globally change every WSL distribution with this setting
423
- by modifying your %USERPROFILE%\.wslconfig as follows:
424
-
425
- [source,text]
426
- --------------------------------------------
427
- [wsl2]
428
- kernelCommandLine = "sysctl.vm.max_map_count=262144"
429
- --------------------------------------------
430
-
431
- This will cause all WSL2 VMs to have that setting assigned when they start.
432
-
433
- If you are on Windows 11, or Windows 10 version 22H2 and have installed the Microsoft Store
434
- version of WSL, you can modify the /etc/sysctl.conf within the "docker-desktop" WSL
435
- distribution, perhaps with commands like this:
436
-
437
- [source,sh]
438
- --------------------------------------------
439
- wsl -d docker-desktop -u root
440
- vi /etc/sysctl.conf
441
- --------------------------------------------
442
-
443
- and appending a line which reads:
444
- [source,text]
445
- --------------------------------------------
446
- vm.max_map_count = 262144
