Issue Description

On Windows, I'm sometimes getting into a state where I can't run some commands from the terminal including "podman version" but I can run "podman machine ssh" without issue and then run these commands inside the machine without issue. What's the best way to debug or fix?

Steps to reproduce the issue

Create podman machine run, later run podman commands

Describe the results you received

Run the command
podman version

returns

Cannot connect to Podman. Please verify your connection to the Linux system using `podman system connection list`, or try `podman machine init` and `podman machine start` to manage a new Linux VM
Error: unable to connect to Podman socket: Get "http://d/v5.0.1/libpod/_ping": ssh: rejected: connect failed (open failed)

But the command:

podman machine ssh

works as expected:

Connecting to vm podman-machine-default. To close connection, use `~.` or `exit`

Describe the results you expected

podman version runs the current version

Why is podman using the URL:

"http://d/v5.0.1/libpod/_ping"

When trying to connect?

Running:

curl http://d/v5.0.1/libpod/_ping

Returns:

curl: (6) Could not resolve host: d

and

podman system connection list

gives:

Name                         URI                                                                  Identity

this could be any number of problems. it sounds like it works and then something is going on that causes it to fail. right ?

Agreed, I'm trying to figure best way to debug why the connection is failing. It seems like an issue with the REST API since the commands in the WSL-2 distro created by Podman machine are working

i dont think the REST API as much as the socket

Could easily be a socket issue, Any suggestions on how to debug?

Same problem here on Windows 11 and Podman 5.1.0 (curl: (6) Could not resolve host: d), but system connection list is empty.

Podman machine is running and container can be started from "Podman Desktop" but not from terminal.

podman start {container}

Error: unable to connect to Podman socket: Get "http://d/v5.1.0/libpod/_ping": dial unix /run/podman/podman.sock: connect: A socket operation encounte

I've also hit this. I can replicate the error by performing podman machine init --username foo. I can then podman machine ssh, but not podman ps or anything else. If I init without setting the username, it works as expected.

I am also facing the same issue on Windows 11.
Do we have any potential fix for this?

Have you tried to create the podman machine with root privileges? I had the same issue than you, and I realized that I had created the machine without root privileges, but with podman desktop I created the machine with root privilege, and now, I can do things like podman ps, or podman version.

podman machine stop
podman machine set --rootful
podman machine start
