Empty headers in /v1/getinfo request ... Error in Channel Backup for Node ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:8080

[otech47]

I am running lnd-v0.14.2 and using the latest master branch of RTL

Any API calls to LND are failing due to what seems to be missing macaroon headers

I confirmed LND is not the problem by sending a request with Postman to /v1/getinfo with the macaroon HEX

My config is

{
  "port": "3001",
  "defaultNodeIndex": 1,
  "SSO": {
    "rtlSSO": 0,
    "rtlCookiePath": "",
    "logoutRedirectLink": ""
  },
  "nodes": [
    {
      "index": 1,
      "lnNode": "Node 1",
      "lnImplementation": "LND",
      "Authentication": {
        "macaroonPath": "/mnt/c/.../Lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet",
        "configPath": "/mnt/c/.../lnd.conf"
      },
      "Settings": {
        "userPersona": "MERCHANT",
        "themeMode": "DAY",
        "themeColor": "PURPLE",
        "channelBackupPath": "/mnt/i/.../RTL",
        "logLevel": "ERROR",
        "lnServerUrl": "https://localhost:8080",
        "fiatConversion": false
      }
    }
  ],
  "multiPassHashed": "..."
}

Weird thing is with https://github.com/apotdevin/thunderhub I have the exact same problem

I am running Windows 10 Pro using Ubuntu WSL v2

Before this started happening ~1 day ago I had WSL v1 installed when running node rtl...

I believe this is due to WSL2 support as explained here:

https://superuser.com/questions/1527835/windows-10-wsl-curl-cant-access-localhost-with-error-failed-to-connect-to-loca

microsoft/WSL#4619

As soon as I changed it back to WSL 1 with wsl --set-version Ubuntu 1 and reopened the WSL terminal to re-run everything worked

May add some docs to warn about this issue during setup
