Containers not runniung

I am trying to run windows containers on a Windows Server 2016 VM. I have installed docker for windows and it is up and working. I am able to run commands:

However, when i run this simple commands it just stops responding:

docker container run hello-world:nanoserver

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I disabled the windows firewall service and rebooted. Now i get the following:

docker container run hello-world:nanoserver

I turned the firewall back on and now it is stuck at Docker container run hello-world:nanoserver The courser is just blinking on the next line.

By any chance, do you have Docker for Windows (D4W) installed on the same machine? It is a product that lets developer run Linux and Windows container for test purpose on desktop OS like Windows 10. For production load, you can install Docker EE engine onto Windows Server 2016.

And if you buy support from Microsoft, they can help you troubleshoot with EE engine too. Maybe, this instruction will help.

Yes, I installed docker for windows. I will remove it and add docker EE.

I uninstalled docker for windows. I ran through the installation of EE. When I run the command docker container run hellow-world:nanoserver it just sits there…

I blew away the VM and re-created a brand new 2016 VM. I ran

Install-Module DockerProvider -Force
Install-Package Docker -ProviderName DockerProvider -Force

I had to reboot twice and the service (docker) started.

I ran the test command and I got the following:

docker container run hello-world:nanoserver
Unable to find image 'hello-world:nanoserver' locally

now it is just sitting at the blinking courser again.

Hi , Am facing the same issue did you find the solution for the same…?
