docker container is not running (centos) - docker

Question

I tried to start a container output as follows,
I have listed all available containers using docker ps --all.
[root#sdctlt0048 express_edition]# docker ps --all
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
ceb4b5256c32 store/saplabs/hanaexpress:2.00.045.00.20200121.1 "/run_hana --passwor…" 6 hours ago Exited (1) 3 hours ago express_edition

97e277d42155 hello-world "/hello" 2 weeks ago Exited (0) 2 weeks ago confident_roentgen
I entered the following commands to start the container which is in the exit stage and enter the terminal of this image.
docker start ceb4b5256c32
docker exec -it ceb4b5256c32 bach
It throws the following error.
FATA [0000] Error response from daemon: Container ceb4b5256c32 is not running
But when I start the container using docker start ceb4b5256c32. It throws the container ID out, which is okay if everything is working normally. I am not sure what caused this error.
for my docker run i was created a script where I put all my commands as follows:
Any idea on the causes and suggestions on this would be very helpful to me.
many Thank in advance.

Mb the container has already stopped when you want to execute the command?
Check if conatainer have a status Exited and logs
docker ps | grep ceb4b5256c32
docker logs ceb4b5256c32 --tail 5
If the container always stops and this is normal then try it (--rm - remove container after stopped):
docker run --rm -it <image:name> <command>
Eg:
# ~ docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
# ~ docker run --rm -it debian bash
root#22ce8b31b68c:/# exit
exit
# ~ docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
# ~
