I am running an application with a dockerfile that I made.
I run at first my image with this command:
docker run -it -p 8501:8501 99aa9d3b7cc1
Everything works fine, but I was expecting to see a file in a specific folder of my directory of the app, which is an expected behaviour. But running with docker, seems like the application cannot write in my host directory.
Then I tried to mount a volume with this command
docker 99aa9d3b7cc1:/output .
I got this error docker: invalid reference format.
Which is the right way to persist the data that the application generates?
Use docker bind mounts.
e.g.
-v "$(pwd)"/volume:/output
The files created in /output in the container will be accessible in the volume folder relative to where the docker command has been run.
Im using the following command to run an image off docker hub
docker run -it -e "SPRING_PROFILES_ACTIVE=localdocker" -p 8080:8080 name/repo:8 /bin/bash
Two questions:
First of all, is there a way to not have to keep increment the number next to the repo each time CI uploads a new image? Is there a way to say just run the latest?
What is the command to run if I want to stop the current instance and instead restart it with a newer image from the hub?
Yes, if you are using any CI tool then you can dynamically substitute the new created docker image tag to a variable.
Say - dockerimage:${buildID} , you can replace this buildID dynamically via your CI tool
While creating container, always give it a name, such that you can execute
docker stop
command on that container, to stop it and then clear the container permanently too, if you want to reuse that container name always, if you execute
docker ps -a | grep give_container_name_here
it will give you that container and then you can delete that via
docker rm $(docker ps -a | grep give_container_name_here)
Then you can restart docker container with new docker image that you have created via CI pipeline
I was following this post - the reference code is on GitHub. I have cloned the repository on my local.
The project has got a react app inside it. I'm trying to run it on my local following step 7 on the same post:
docker run -p 8080:80 shakyshane/cra-docker
This returns:
Unable to find image 'shakyshane/cra-docker:latest' locally
docker: Error response from daemon: pull access denied for shakyshane/cra-docker, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login'.
See 'docker run --help'.
I tried login to docker again but looks like since it belongs to #shakyShane I cannot access it.
I idiotically tried npm start too but it's not a simple react app running on node - it's in the container and containers are not controlled by npm
Looks like docker pull shakyshane/cra-docker:latest throws this:
Error response from daemon: pull access denied for shakyshane/cra-docker, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login'
So the question is how do I run this docker image on my local mac machine?
Well this is illogical but still sharing so future people like me don't get stuck.
The problem was that I was trying to run a docker image which doesn't exist.
I needed to build the image:
docker build . -t xameeramir/cra-docker
And then run it:
docker run -p 8080:80 xameeramir/cra-docker
In my case, my image had TAG specified with it and I was not using it.
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
testimage testtag 189b7354c60a 13 hours ago 88.3MB
Unable to find image 'testimage:latest' locally for this command docker run testimage
So specifying tag like this - docker run testimage:testtag worked for me
Posting my solution since non of the above worked.
Working on macbook M1 pro.
The issue I had is that the image was built as arm/64. And I was running the command:
docker run --platform=linux/amd64 ...
So I had to build the image for amd/64 platform in order to run it.
Command below:
docker buildx build --platform=linux/amd64 ...
In conclusion your docker image platform and docker run platform needs to be the same from what I experienced.
In my case, the docker image did exist on the system and still I couldn't run the container locally, so I used the exact image ID instead of image name and tag, like this:
docker run myContainer c29150c8588e
I received this error message when I typed the name/character wrong. That is, "name1\name2" instead of "name1/name2" (wrong slash).
In my case, I saw this error when I had logged in to the dockerhub in my docker desktop. The repo I was pulling was local to my enterprise. Once i logged out of dockerhub, the pull worked.
This just happened to me because my local docker vm on macos ran out of disk space.
I just deleted some old images using docker image prune and it started working correctly again.
shakyshane/cra-docker Does not exist in that user's repo https://hub.docker.com/u/shakyshane/
The problem is you are trying to run an imagen that does not exists. If you are executing a Dockerfile, the image was not created until Dockerfile pass with no errors; so when Dockerfile tries to run the image, it can't find it. Be sure you have no errors in the execution of your scripts.
The simplest answer can be the correct one!.. make sure you have permissions to execute the command, use:
sudo docker run -p 8080:80 shakyshane/cra-docker
In my case, I didn't realise there was a difference between docker run and docker start, and I kept using the run command when I should've been using the start command.
FYI, run is for building and creating the docker container, start is to just start a stopped container
Use -d
sudo docker run -d -p 8000:8000 rasa/duckling
learn about -d here
sudo docker run --help
At first, i build image on mac-m1-pro with this command docker build -t hello_k8s_world:0.0.1 ., when is run this image the issue appear.
After read Master Yi's answer, i realize the crux of the matter and rebuild my images like this docker build --platform=arm64 -t hello_k8s_world:0.0.1 .
Finally,it worked.
Docker is a full development platform for creating containerized apps, and Docker for Windows is the best way to get started with Docker on Windows systems.
Start your favorite shell (cmd.exe, PowerShell, or other) to check your versions of docker and docker-compose, and verify the installation.
PS C:\Users\Docker> docker --version
Docker version 17.03.0-ce, build 60ccb22
PS C:\Users\Docker> docker-compose --version
docker-compose version 1.11.2, build dfed245
Your questions is not very specific but it appears that you are trying to containerize an asp.net web app, Here is a basic clue to what you want to accomplish by using docker.
Docker is a linux containers system means it's based on linux kernel and by installing docker in windows you are installing a linux guest machine to built your containers in and you will customize your containers to forward ports that will serve your app development from inside the container to your host machine, So basically How this is going to happen? after installing docker first docker needs a base image(linux image) to run your containers from, so a great place to find docker images is docker hub, so also for a basic scenario you need:
1) Pull an image.
2) Run a container based on this image.
To accomplish number 1: we will use microsoft dotnet official docker hub as an example.
docker pull microsoft/aspnetcore
docker pull: will pull the dotnet:latest image from docker hub, :latest is a tag specify the latest stable release of dotnet means if you want another runtime version you will use docker pull dotnet:runtime from the above dotnet official docker hub link you will find tags under Supported tags
To accomplish number 2: we need to run a container by using this image.
docker run -d -p 8000:80 --name firstwebapptest microsoft/aspnetcore
docker run: will create a container name firstwebapptest based on microsoft/aspnetcore forwarding the container port 80to the host port 8000 and all of that will run as a detached mode -d
And now check your browser localhost:8000
This is a very basic scenario using the docker command line tools.
So another way to accomplish this scenario is by using a dockerfile you will find How to use this image in microsoft dotnet official docker hub link, It assumes that you already in your app directory that contain your compiled myapp.dll. What will you do is create a file called dockerfile in this directory and write this inside:
FROM microsoft/aspnetcore
WORKDIR /app
COPY . .
ENTRYPOINT ["dotnet", "myapp.dll"]
FROM: base image that we already pulled
WORKDIR: that will be the directory inside the linux container
COPY: . . the first . is copying your host directory content inside the container the second . is your guest directory in that case will be /app
ENTREYPOINT: is the linux command that will run once this container is up and running in that case dotnet myapp.dll means you are running the command dotnet from the linux container inside the WORKDIR /app with all your host directory app structure that contains your compiled myapp.dll. that we already copied it COPY . .
so now we have the dockerfile all what we need is to build and run it.
docker build -t secondwebapptest .
docker run -d -p 8001:80 secondwebapptest
docker build: will build a container named -t secondwebapptest from . the dot refer to the dockerfile that you just built and that you are already in the working directory otherwise you have to specify a path to the docker file by using -f but that is not our case.
docker run: will run the container that already been created that named secondwebapptest based on forwarding the container port 80to the host port 8001 and all of that will run as a detached mode -d.
And now check your browser localhost:8001
I create a docker container using
docker-machine.exe create -d virtualbox --virtualbox-memory 2048 default
and I logged into the bash using
docker run -ti ubuntu /bin/bash
and I got something like root#ae78cd536ddf:/# where I did a couple of apt-get installs.
Then, I exited from the bash and when I again logged back in I could not find what I had installed. I wanted to do a docker commit, but I somehow can't figure where my installed stuff is?
UPDATE
Based on the answers I tried creating an image of the container. I have compiled all commands in a gist.
With docker run, you create a container from the ubuntu image. The container has the name ae78cd536ddf (in your case). You can inspect images and containers with docker ps -a and docker images respectively.
Each time you run docker run, a new container is created. When using docker run --name Somename, you force the container to be named Somename which prevents you from creating another container with the same name.
Images are immutable which means you can not change them. So when you modify something in the running container, the image stays the same and this you can create more containers from the same image.
So after you stopped a container (docker stop, exit the containerized bash or just reboot), you can run docker start ae78cd536ddf to restart it. But it will be running in background and you won't have a bash (check docker ps to see it's running). Now you just need a bash: docker exec -it ae78cd536ddf /bin/bash will execute a bash in the container you started before.
Just a note about creating images. You might want to install the software you always need (I personally love vim, htop, ...) and then docker commit the container. This will create a new image which you can see in docker images. Now you can run containers from this image by replacing ubuntu with your image name.
To get more reproducable builds (when using a CI for example), you can create a Dockerfile and run docker build.
Every docker run command creates a new container. The id in the hostname of the bash shell is the container ID. You can commit that.
To see all containers (including stopped containers), do docker ps -a.
