Expected behavior

After install I should run successfully docker version command

Actual behavior

Executing docker version produce the following:

Client: Version: 18.06.0-ce API version: 1.38 Go version: go1.10.3 Git commit: 0ffa825 Built: Wed Jul 18 19:05:28 2018 OS/Arch: windows/amd64 Experimental: false error during connect: Get http://%2F%2F.%2Fpipe%2Fdocker_engine/v1.38/version: open //./pipe/docker_engine: The system cannot find the file specified. In the default daemon configuration on Windows, the docker client must be run elevated to connect. This error may also indicate that the docker daemon is not running.

Information

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Problem is reproducible ( at least on windows laptop)

  1. Install Docker For Windows. Install seems successful. At least I could see that Docker Windows Service is running.
  2. However when in PS command I tried to execute: docker version it shows error that reported above. Log file reported an error: [DockerDaemonChecker][Error ] Docker daemon is not running
    1. I tried to restart Docker Windows Service as suggested in troubleshooting guide. And then trying to restart docker by double clicking Docker image on Desktop. Docker shows message: Docker is running . However I am still getting same error when trying to execute the following commands: docker version docker ps or trying to run hello_world

Did you run PowerShell as administrator?

ilevina commented 6 years ago

Yes, I run PowerShell as administrator. I am getting this error every time on Restart: docker startup tales a long time and then it always fails with error, I reported. It seems not only me having similar issue with installing Docker on Windows 10 Pro. I tried several times to re-installed it, always ended with same result.

To re-install steps:

1) Uninstall Docker. After un-install delete the following folders manually: c:/Users/…/AppData/Local/Docker, c:/Users/…/Roaming/Docker/, c:/ProgramData/Docker,c:/ProgramFiles/Docker 2) Disable Hyper-V and Containers, restart computer 3) Enable Hyper-V, restart computer. Enable Containers restart computer. 4) Then install Docker-For-Windows and … Nothing help. Same error.

If you have any idea, what else could be done to install Docker , welcome with suggestions. Thx

I have the same problem, at the moment I have not been able to solve it

@ilevina, have you been able to solve it?

ilevina commented 6 years ago

No, I didn't solve it

sergioSN commented 6 years ago

I've got it working, I've removed all the traces with a program called Geek (https://geekuninstaller.com) and then I've reinstalled

cicorias commented 6 years ago

this is just happening out of the blue. Next time I see this I'll do a better job of inspecting if the \\pipe still is present or defined in the OS. From my situation, all was working great from a non-admin shell.

Then, I see this error which is false. But, using the command to see if the pipe is still presents, idicates it is NOT.

My fix was just reset Docker via the Applet.

Error message of no sense

Before a Reset of Docker.

pomil commented 4 years ago

I tried the command cd "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker" ./DockerCli.exe -SwitchDaemon

but then I get following Error when running docker run hello-world:

Unable to find image 'hello-world:latest' locally C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\Resources\bin\docker.exe: Error response from daemon: Get https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/library/hello-world/manifests/latest: unauthorized: incorrect username or password. See 'C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\Resources\bin\docker.exe run --help'.

redhead commented 4 years ago

@chowdaryprasaad This worked for me. Just beware you need to switch two times (e.g. first to windows containers, and then again to go back to linux containers).

Thanks.

With what version of Docker Windows?

eschrader commented 4 years ago

cd "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker" ./DockerCli.exe -SwitchDaemon try this

This worked for me, thanks a lot.

This worked for me after I had removed the Hyper V feature and network adapters. I reset docker desktop to factory and ran this command once and docker ps worked.

Hello Luis-Enrique1

Even was facing the same issue, it seems Docker 2.3.3 is not mature and has lot of issues. Please go back to old version of docker (18.06), I did the same and its working

I am summarizing the steps

  1. Open powershell in administrative mode, Copy the below content in a bat file (InstallHyperV.bat) InstallHyperV.bat

    pushd "%~dp0" dir /b %SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages*Hyper-V*.mum >hyper-v.txt for /f %%i in ('findstr /i . hyper-v.txt 2^>nul') do dism /online /norestart /add-package:"%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\%%i" del hyper-v.txt dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Hyper-V -All /LimitAccess /ALL pause

  2. run InstallHyperV.bat, and check if there are not issues

  3. open Registry Editor in "Administrative mode" go to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion Double click "EditionID" and change the Value date to "Professional" Don't close the window

  4. Install docker (18.06)

  5. Open powershell in administrative mode, and type docker ps

Hope it should work for you!!!!!

how to use this in windows 10. as I do not have "Docker" file in C:\Program Files. I have "Docker toolbar" instead.Please help

gordonma05 commented 4 years ago

I followed the tutorial https://itnext.io/install-docker-on-windows-10-home-d8e621997c1d to install docker in my windows 10 home and got the same issue when I restarted my machine every time. I have to uninstall and install docker multiple times to get it work again. It seems windows uninstall doesn't fully uninstall docker because uninstall is very fast and takes only a couple seconds. Now I have to keep my machine sleep instead of shutting down to avoid reinstalling dockers.
