I am new to DOCKER. I am using Community Edition, stable version on Windows 10 64bit OS.
Docker is installed successfully and it is showing status as running. However when i try below command i get error :
C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker>docker run hello-world
docker: error during connect: Post http://C:2375/Program%20Files/Docker/Docker/v1.27/containers/create: dial tcp: lookup C: getaddrinfow: No such host is known..
See 'docker run --help'.
Docker version is
C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker>docker --version
Docker version 17.03.1-ce, build c6d412e
can anyone please help?
I recommend you to go for docker tool box if it is for development purpose. I too faced few issues when i was trying to install docker on my Windows 10.
Before go for further investigation about your problem, i want you to check the following;
Make sure Virtualization enabled. you can check it in BIOS configuration.
In final completion wizard of docker window, you must check "Launch Docker" (it will check by default)
If you think you installed properly, you should able to see the docker icon in the status bar.
If all the above criteria's seems fine, you can run the hello-world program and could able to see the output from docker hub.
For more information on how to install docker tool box on you windows. you can refer the docker tool box for windows
If you still have any issues, please type the below command on your terminal and send the result
"docker info"
Hope this will help for you!

I am a beginner at Docker. I need to create two containers for mongo and mongo-express. But, I'm getting an error as error during connect: This error may indicate that the docker daemon is not running.
Then I tried below steps:
I run the cmd as administrator. Then I run the command "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\DockerCli.exe" -SwitchDaemon. It didn't work for me. then I tried with 'C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\DockerCli.exe' -SwitchDaemon way. Then I enabled hypervisor also. Still, I am getting the same error. When I ran the docker version command in cmd I received the below-mentioned outputs:
Then after I tried with cd "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker" and ./DockerCli.exe -SwitchDaemon separately.
docker info command gives below mentioned error:

errors pretty printing info
Did you install the Docker Desktop on your Windows PC? If not please install it and Run it. If you already installed it, please run it first!
Then you can see whether the docker engine is starting or not!
After the docker engine started check whether this error is still there. Most probably error will fix after doing that!
If the docker engine is not started, please uninstall docker and delete everything from Registry.
Press Win+R and %appdata%\Docker to go and delete all the files.
Then reinstall the docker, if better you can install the docker desktop. Because with the docker desktop, the docker provides a whole bundle with it! Then you will be able to install the docker for windows smoothly.
Because this error usually getting when the docker engine is not started. Also, this may happen missing Linux kernel on windows. Both issues will address with the correct installation of the Docker Desktop.
You can check whether you have a docker Linux subsystem running on your windows pc by running the following command on cmd,
wsl -l
If you get a result like this,
C:\Users\gayan>wsl -l
Windows Subsystem for Linux Distributions:
docker-desktop-data (Default)
docker-desktop
Then you are okay and ready to go.
If not, please try to uninstall and install the docker desktop
Make sure you delete the previous registry, To do that press Win+R and type Regedit Then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Docker Inc and delete that folder.
If still you are getting the same error, try to troubleshoot the docker desktop. you can refer to the docker documentation.
I am new to Docker and after writing docker version in cmd I got this error,
error during connect: This error may indicate that the docker daemon is not running.: Get "http://%2F%2F.%2Fpipe%2Fdocker_engine/v1.24/version": open //./pipe/docker_engine: The system cannot find the file specified.
The following steps solved this problem:
Open cmd as administrator
Launch command: "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\DockerCli.exe" -SwitchDaemon
some times docker might be disabled from starting on boot or login so in the windows search bar or when clicking the WinKey and starting to type Dock... like showen in the picture below, Then press Enter to start the Docker Daemon
Try running dockerd in a separate terminal and then try running this command.
To avoid doing this every time you can go to services -> find Docker -> select Startup Type as Automatic (Delayed) and reboot the machine.
Simple Solution: Just open Powershell and type dockerd which will start the daemon and you shall be able to use the docker now without errors.
On Windows, reason behind this issue is that Docker is not started. I tried couple of solution provided on multiple online portal to start it. What worked for me is:
In Docker Desktop if you are already logged in as a user, logout from there
Again login to docker desktop with docker account
When we login to docker account, it internally triggers the restart. So resulting if it's not started, it will start the docker for us.
I had this, but when I used a command shell elevated to Administrator, docker version was fine.
This error may indicate that the docker daemon is not running.: Get "http://%2F%2F.%2Fpipe%2Fdocker_engine/v1.24/containers/json": open //./pipe/docker_engine: The system cannot find the file specified.
this error in windows 10
step 1
pls install (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-manual#step-4---download-the-linux-kernel-update-package) Download the latest package:
this link WSL2 Linux kernel update package for x64 machines
then restart then automatically running
In my case,
I download the this github repo.MaxySpark
Closed all the application related to docker.
1.Click on docker.reg file in the downloaded repo.
2.Click on yes->yes->ok to merge.
3.Again open the Docker Toolbox and run docker run hello-world
Open cmd as administrator
Launch command: C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\DockerCli.exe -SwitchDaemon
It simply means that your docker application is not running or you have not logged in to docker application, or docker desktop service is not running .
1: Just open Docker desktop application, login with docker credentials.
2: if already logged in and still getting this error, go to windows + r ==> and type 'services.msc', and restart the docker desktop service.
All done.
It can be kernel problem:
You need to update WSL2 Linux kernel update package for x64 machines
Follow this tutorial:
https://linuxhint.com/resolve-docker-daemon-not-running/
and before execute "docker run hello-world" command, dont forget restart docker
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-manual
I am not able to start the Docker container in Microsoft Windows 10 profession. As I found the cause of this error is due to the docker engine is failing to start.
After installing docker I am able to run only the docker version command.
-> docker --version
As I found the error which is showing docker daemon is not running in windows while running any other docker commands on CMD.
I also enabled (checked) the Hyper-V option in "Turn Windows features on or off" in the Control panel -> Programs -> Turn Windows features on or off.
The error is related to the daemon part:
In the default daemon configuration on Windows, the docker client must be run elevated to connect.
We can switch the Docker daemon as an elevated user in order to run the docker daemon in the Windows professional:
Run below command with Windows Powershell as administrator:
Run the PowerShell command: -
& 'C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\DockerCli.exe' -SwitchDaemon
OR
You can run the below command on CMD as administrator:
Run the CMD command: -
"C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\DockerCli.exe" -SwitchDaemon
My Docker Desktop failed to start after I forced it to exit while updating (it stuck during the update that's why I had to do it). No solution on the Internet helped me until I ran into this Powershell command:
wsl -l -v
It listed the following:
* Ubuntu-18.04 Stopped 2
docker-desktop Uninstalling 2
docker-desktop-data Stopped 2
It kept saying "Uninstalling" even after rebooting the whole system.
What I did was:
wsl -t docker-desktop
It terminated docker-desktop and made the problem gone.
delete %appdata%\Docker\settings.json and let Docker to create a new one
You should check WSL:
Execute "wsl -l -v" at the command prompt.
If the result is like this:
Then execute "wsl --shutdown" on the command line.
Then execute "wsl -l -v", you will see:
Then start Docker Desktop.
This solved my problem.
Make sure to download the Linux Kernel Update Package and then try restarting Docker Desktop.
Download from here
Just share my experience how I solved the problem with "docker failed to start" or similar problem. I found some mess with my Win10 Home edition, despite the fact that all checkes regarding Hyper-v, wsl and others passed I got failed to start docker engine. So, I tried to install one of the old version (4.4.4), not the newest one. An voila it installed wsl2 and started without any problems!
Hope this could help someone who's tried all solutions (for example, deletion of the %appdata%\docker folders) :)
I was getting the same exact issue and a solution was provided from thread The attempted operation is not supported for the type of object referenced." error after Windows Update fixed my problem. I had tried everything before this solution. To keep it simple just follow the below steps -
Copy below snippet
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2\Parameters\AppId_Catalog\0408F7A3]
"AppFullPath"="C:\Windows\System32\wsl.exe"
"PermittedLspCategories"=dword:80000000
Save it as a file wsl.reg
Execute the file to update the wsl registry
restart docker desktop
these steps are basically done to do some changes in the registry of wsl distribution that is installed standalone or by docker.
Using PowerShell gave me a right direction. All restarts and re-install with deletion didn't work.
wsl -l -v showed list of three processes but wsl -t docker-desktop responded with "There is no distribution with the supplied name." only. wsl --shutdown either didn't work.
Solution is next door wsl --unregister docker-desktop . After this all went fine.
I ran the following command which resolved the issue for me.
wsl --unregister docker-desktop
Please make sure your OS type requires WSL or Hyper-V to run docker as per this official link 👉 https://docs.docker.com/desktop/install/windows-install/
For my case, I am using Windows 11 Home OS, and it requires WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) to run docker. So that I installed WSL on my system.
Follow this link to install WSL 👉 https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-manual#step-4---download-the-linux-kernel-update-package
After that restart your system, then open docker (It may take up to 10 secs to start)
Hope it may solve your issue✌️

Running Powershell with elevated access solved my issue.
Usually this error means the Docker daemon that is docker services is not up and running.
Make sure docker is running by issuing below command in power shell in elevated mode.
docker run hello-world
A response as hello from docker will be printed on console.
Else start the docker by double clicking the docker app from start menu.
Below is the snapshot of graphically up and running docker daemon.
On Windows, go to the folder %homepath%\.docker, open daemon.json and if debug is set to true then set it to false.
I had the same error as in the question and after I changed the above it worked again for me. After I got the error, I had been looking at the various docker settings and decided to set debug to false because I don't need any daemon debug info for what I'm doing. I don't know why it was set to true originally.
In my case, although I had the docker service running as admin and the service was shown as running, it was not.
Open the docker desktop app, click on the 'troubleshoot' icon. Check if the service is effectively running (bottom left). If it's not, try to 'clean/purge data', and then restart the service. It worked for me!
Verify it by running docker run hello-world
Fow Windows:
Launch command: "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\DockerCli.exe" -SwitchDaemon
This error is because of organisation network certificates which are installed in local machine. Beacuse some companies restricted network by installing certificates.
docker daemon service is not running on my machine and when I start the service, this error us resolved.
I had faced the same error, the following worked for me:
In the windows taskbar, the docker icon was red in color saying Out of Memory...
In the Docker Desktop App, goto
Settings -> Resources -> Disk Image Size -> decrease the space allocated -> Apply & Restart
This did happen to me while i was using docker today for the first time. I fixed by opening up the docker app in the PC and signing and selecting the necessary subscription plan.
Open docker with docker <homepath>. Simply upgrade docker and then run this command
docker-compose up -d
you will be able to solve the specified path error.
docker.errors.DockerException: Error while fetching server API version: (2, 'CreateFile', 'The system cannot find the file specified.')

Doing the above solved the error.
Yo,
open docker app > settings > Docker engine > "debug": true,
debug was false initially, after changing it to "true" it worked.
Thanks.
