Installation of Docker and running hello world image



Installation of Docker and running hello world image

Docker is quite an interesting topic, When I started installing docker I run into the problem that it cannot connect to internet, giving me the following error
(default) Waiting for an IP …

Solution:

Step 1. Power Off running default ( Running App ) in your Virual Box.


Step 2.  Remove default ( Running App )



Step 3. Start docker Quickstart terminal

Verify ( Go to the Quickstart terminal and type )

1.      $ docker version
You will notice the below output, may be versions can vary

2.      $ docker run hello-world

Hello from Docker!

This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.



To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:

 1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.

 2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.

 3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the

    executable that produces the output you are currently reading.

 4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it

    to your terminal.



To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with:

 $ docker run -it ubuntu bash
