Dear Petia,

I'm afraid I have to start by saying that the Linux subsystem in Windows (WLS) is a platform for which we are not actively developing NEST. We do not build and test NEST on WSL.

However, to narrow down the issue, can you provide some additional information?

- CMake log

- make build log

- installcheck log (can be found in the reports folder of your build directory

Best regards

Guido
