The report provides a Docker Compose configuration and container log, but names no repository file or test. Start by reproducing the VERSION: "11e" startup on Ubuntu 24.04 and trace the Microsoft request and static-link fallback. Done means identifying a reproducible cause and confirming that the Windows download completes successfully.
