Docker jenkins container is stuck while running - docker

Question

I can't run a jenkins image with docker.
It is getting stuck while running:

Answer 1

You actually are running Jenkins... you're just doing it "interactively." That is, you're attached to the process that the docker run command kicked off. If you look at the Dockerfile for the Jenkins image, you'll see:
ENTRYPOINT ["/bin/tini", "--", "/usr/local/bin/jenkins.sh"]
This basically says that, when you run a Jenkins container, it will kick off that shell script. When you get to the point of seeing this:
INFO: Finished Download metadata. 9,318 ms
You're Jenkins container is up and running. You should be able to open a browser and point it to http://localhost:8080/, where you should see the Jenkins UI.
In order to not have your terminal window sit on the command like that, you need to instruct docker to detach from the container (sort of like running a process in the background). If you run docker run --help, you'll see the following entry:
-d, --detach Run container in background and print container ID
So you just need to use the -d flag in your command:
docker run --name myjenkins -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 -v /var/jenkins_home -d jenkins
Instead of showing you the logs, it will instead display a container ID (a big long alphanumeric). Now, if you want to see the logs (for instance, to get the Jenkins-generated password), you can use:
docker logs myjenkins
(that's the name you assigned to the container with the --name option) or
docker logs [container ID]
