You might need to start docker for windows - Доктор Windows

I want to run Docker Compose on Windows 10. When I run docker-compose up, I get the following error message:

ERROR: Couldn’t connect to Docker daemon. You might need to start Docker for Windows

I did not find a solution in the StackOverflow.

I have only seen this error when Docker Desktop is not currently running or it ran out of resources. Ensure that you have Docker Desktop installed and that it is running. Another possibility is that Docker is does not have enough resources to launch, so you will need to increase the resource limits. If this does not fix it, comment and let me know.

This error was caused by lack of memory in my machine. The Docker Desktop was not starting since it was configured to run with 2 GB.

To solve my problem, I changed this parameter in Settings -> Resources -> Memory, reducing it to the minimum allowed: 1 GB. I also changed the swap value (Settings -> Resources -> Swap), setting the value to its minimum (512 MB).

Trying to use Docker on my Windows 10 SurfaceBook 2 for the first time. In VS Code tried running:

$ ./manage start —logs

that returns

ERROR: Couldn't connect to Docker daemon.

services shows Docker for Windows Service is running (but services disables restart option).

upgraded to the latest version of dockers for windows today

ran:

$ docker version
Client: Docker Engine - Community
 Version:           19.03.8
 API version:       1.40
 Go version:        go1.12.17
 Git commit:        afacb8b
 Built:             Wed Mar 11 01:23:10 2020
 OS/Arch:           windows/amd64
 Experimental:      false
error during connect: Get http://%2F%2F.%2Fpipe%2Fdocker_engine/v1.40/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.

in an elevated powershell, tried instructions on https://www.edureka.co/community/51478/how-to-start-a-docker-daemon-manually, but «dockerd not recognized» was all i could see.

not sure what to do next…

I am at a loss for what to do.

I’ve got all my kernel modules and everything required to use Docker enabled on my machine. I ran this:

root #exec /usr/share/docker/contrib/check-config.sh

and everything is enabled.

now when I run $ docker-compose up -d I get some wonky error and I have no idea what to do.

ERROR: for truthseekers_wordpress_1  ('Connection aborted.', 
BadStatusLine("''",))

ERROR: for wordpress  ('Connection aborted.', 
BadStatusLine("''",))
ERROR: Couldn't connect to Docker daemon - you might need to run `docker-machine start default`.

Okay… I’ll do what the error says to do:

$ docker-machine start default
Docker machine "default" does not exist. Use "docker-machine ls" to list 
machines. Use "docker-machine create" to add a new one.

$ docker-machine create default
Running pre-create checks...
Error with pre-create check: "VBoxManage not found. Make sure 
VirtualBox is installed and VBoxManage is in the path"

What!? so docker-compose relies on docker-machine, and docker-machine requires Virtualbox? am I missing something????

I get all sorts of weird stuff happening. I get containers that just wont let me remove them until I restart my computer.

I don’t know where to troubleshoot. I’m using Gentoo (which I’m way too noobie for) and I believe I set everything up there. so I think at this point I need to be troubleshooting docker itself, but.. I don’t know.

Hi !

Time to share a weird experience on Windows 10 and Docker. Sometimes, usually after some Windows 10 update or even after a software installation, docker stop responding.

An typical error may look like this.

error during connect: This error may indicate that the docker daemon is not running.: Post http://%2F%2F.%2Fpipe%2Fdocker_engine/v1.24/build?buildargs=%7B%7D&cachefrom=%5B%5D&cgroupparent=&cpuperiod=0&cpuquota=0&cpusetcpus=&cpusetmems=&cpushares=0&dockerfile=Dockerfile.amd64&labels=%7B%7D&memory=0&memswap=0&networkmode=default&rm=1&shmsize=0&t=noToday.azurecr.io%2FU%3A0.0.88-amd64&target=&ulimits=null&version=1: open //./pipe/docker_engine: The system cannot find the file specified.

From Visual Studio Code we get:

And it’s very weird. When I check the Docker desktop app, it’s stuck in the the STARTING state.

I can restart the docker desktop app, and I will still have the issue. As I said, weird.

I’m a handy man, so I decided to restart the docker service. Just 2 commands:

Net stop com.docker.service
Net start com.docker.service

However, this does not solve the problem. And sometimes, even restarting Windows won’t fix the problem.

After some time, I found the root cause:

Somehow WSL was set to version 1 instead of version 2.

I’m not sure why, however the solution is super easy. Just run a command to set WSL to version 2 and then restart docker service.

wsl --set-default-version 2
Net stop com.docker.service
Net start com.docker.service

If you are a visual person, this may look like this:

Important: you need to run these commands with Administrator privileges. So in a Windows Terminal world, this may also look like this. Right click on the Windows Terminal App, and click on “Run as administrator”.

Happy coding!
