wsl rustup ends up with a command not found error, it seems wsl won't load ~/.profile using the aforementioned command.
However, wsl bash -ic "rustup" works if rust path is set in .bashrc.

The wsl current behavior is confirmed by another user here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/bashonubuntuonwindows/comments/9tsrym/default_shell_is_zsh_running_wsl_some_command/

and by a wsl member:
microsoft/WSL#2816 (comment)

It seems .profile is always ignored and in order for wsl to parse .zhsrc / .bashrc you need commands like wsl bash -ic rustup.

I added the following to my settings.json and it fixed it.

"rust-client.rustupPath": "/home/me/.cargo/bin/rustup"

I then stumbled across this issue.

VS Code 1.33.1
Rust (rls) plugin 0.6.1
rustup --version rustup 1.18.2 (a0bf3c9cb 2019-05-02)

Edit: Just tried to build via VS Code and I now have the same problem with cargo.

I'm getting a similar error:

> Executing task: wsl /home/dkolsoi/.cargo/bin/rustup component add rust-analysis --toolchain nightly-2019-04-12-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu <

/bin/bash: wsl: command not found

We deprecated the WSL support in-extension, please try out the Remote - WSL extension, instead (should fix all the path-related issues)
