VM not in restartable state - after starting Virtual PC #2600

Open jmkgreen opened 8 years ago

jmkgreen commented 8 years ago

On Windows 7 using latest available Docker Toolbox. Steps to reproduce:

  1. Run the "Docker Quickstart Terminal"
  2. Confirm docker engine as has started
  3. Run Windows XP Mode (or presumably other imagines) within Microsoft Virtual PC
  4. Observe that the quickstart terminal is gone and attempts to connect to the default virtual machine fail with the error: "VM not in restartable state"

Unsure which software is to blame, hoping others can help pinpoint.

Hmm, not here to pinpoint which software causes the fault, happened to me too. If you are Windows based, get your process monitor up and find the process with the name like Vboxheadless or something, kill it and restart your Docker. VM will start to run fine and dandy.
