Final answer:
In order to fix a temporary failure in name resolution on WSL, restart the WSL service, check the /e tc / resolv. conf file within WSL for valid DNS server entries, and if necessary, revise your Windows host network settings.
Step-by-step explanation:
To fix a temporary failure in name resolution on WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux), you can try several steps. First, ensure your internet connection is stable. If it is, try restarting the WSL service by running 'wsl --shutdown' in your Windows Command Prompt, and then restart your WSL instance.
Another method is to check your /et c /r esolv. conf file within WSL. This file should contain nameserver entries that point to a valid DNS server. If the file is incorrect or empty, you can manually add a nameserver by editing the file and adding a line such as 'nameserver 8.8.8.8', which uses Go`ogle's DNS service.
If those steps do not work, there could be an issue with network settings on the Windows host. In this case, you may need to reset the network settings or check the firewall and security settings that might be blocking WSL from accessing the DNS service.
