Answer 1

I am using Ubuntu 18.04 under Windows 10 as a Subsystem, so You have to start off by adding repositories required by MariaDB by :

sudo apt-get install software-properties-common

Then update your installation by :

sudo apt update

Install MariaDB by :

sudo apt install mariadb-server

You’ll be prompted to set a root password and wait for the installation to continue. Issue the following command once installation is complete:

sudo service mysql start

That’s it and to check both your mysql and mariadb version try:

mysql --version

Answer 2

as mentioned a guy at github and it solved my problem The problem is with the script "/etc/profile.d/wsl-integration.sh". As a quick workaround insert the following line before the first line in "/etc/profile.d/wsl-integration.sh" (use sudo to edit the file):

# Check if we have HOME folder
if [ "${HOME}" = "/" ]; then
  return
fi

I mean before the line:

WSL_INTEGRATION_CACHE=$HOME/.cache/wslu/integration`
