docker errors on Mac

[hputnam]

I have been trying to get docker to work on roadrunner and ostrich based on the docker website recommendations for mac. This is different then the docker quickstart terminal. When trying to open the application I get the following error:

When I run the suggested test sysctl kern.hv_support it comes back kern.hv_support: 0 which means it does not supports the Hypervisor Framework docker requires. Is there a work around this, or is it possible to install the docker file content directly?

I believe the workaround will be to use the older docker toolbox instead of docker for mac. I'll look around to see if there is any other option.

Another workaround is not use docker :) On Wed, Nov 16, 2016 at 9:33 AM seanb80 notifications@github.com wrote:

I am pretty sure this is my last docker effort.... it seems to hate me.

This is different then the docker quickstart terminal.

Why aren't you using Docker Toolbox (and, in turn, Docker Quickstart Terminal)?

Also, I too, thought you were done using Docker.

From their website it seemed they were recommending the new mac app. I also tried the instructions for docker toolbox but did not find the actual download file. It seemed docker would have been the fastest way to get all software back on the computer if it had worked directly from install. I am happy not to use it and to try to direct install the contents of the Dockerfile.bio on roadrunner if that is possible.

Using Docker is the fastest means by which to implement that software on the newly formatted computers.

Docker Toolbox is already installed on Roadrunner and should be accessible from your user account.

As far as installing software independently on Roadrunner, please see Issue #343 . We need to confirm an installation location.

Additionally, the installation commands should be added to a script file that can be used to perform the installation quickly/easily on all other machines.

However, you are more than welcome to install software on your user account!

I believe in this instance the issue has been resolved by running straight...

Yes, I think I am up and running! Thanks all!
