SIGSEGV on Signal-Desktop

[ankushbhardwxj]

I'm getting SIGSEGV error on running "yarn start" on Signal-Desktop client. I have followed the guide step by step and have also downloaded Microsoft-Build-Tools. I'm using WSL2, where I got the following error log:

yarn run v1.21.1
$ electron .

/mnt/c/Users/eclipse-workspace/Signal-Desktop/node_modules/electron/dist/electron exited with signal SIGSEGV

I've also tried the guide using CMD & Powershell, where "yarn install" fails with the following error:

Which version?

[ankushbhardwxj]

Cloned the "development" branch.

Did you mean the latest version? I'm sorry but I've not tried it, maybe someone can help about this

I'm running Signal Server v4.x, which version of the Signal Desktop/Android client do you think would be compatible ?
