Hi
just getting started with Plutus here and new to the nix environment. Whenever I start running the the server I get the following error and can’t seem to figure out what/where the issue is. any help would be greatly appreciated.
[nix-shell:/plutus/plutus-playground-server]$ plutus-playground-server
plutus-playground-server: for development use only

What’s your operating system?
If you’re using WSL on Windows, make sure that you’ve cloned both the plutus as well as the plutus-pioneer github repo inside your WSL filesystem (for example at /home) and not your Windows filesystem.
Thanks Twitch for the response
I am running Windows OS.
Cloned everything as stated but still same error, I will try a fresh new install once I get a chance. There are some items I saw on installing a node that might be helpful.
on WSL, nix-shell command (running inside …/plutus/ folder) is throwing below error:
